A method for detection of beta-D-glucuronidase activity in a sample that comprises the steps of
(i) providing a glucuronic acid ester compound of the general formula
wherein
R1 is a C1-4 alkyl group,
OR2 is a dye moiety, which is liberated after cleavage of the glycosidic bond;
(ii) contacting said glucuronic acid ester compound with a material of said sample exhibiting hydrolytic activity towards glucuronic acid esters, thereby removing R1 and thus forming a sample containing an indicator compound suitable for the detection and/or measurement of beta-D-glucuronidase activity, and
(iii) using said indicator to perform an assay requiring detection or measurement of beta-D-glucuronidase activity.
一种检测样品中 beta-
D-葡萄糖醛酸酶活性的方法,包括以下步骤
(i) 提供通式如下的
葡萄糖醛酸酯化合物
其中
R1 是 C1-4 烷基、
OR2 是
染料分子,在糖苷键裂解后释放;
(ii) 将所述
葡萄糖醛酸酯化合物与所述样品中对
葡萄糖醛酸酯具有
水解活性的材料接 触,从而除去 R1,从而形成含有适用于检测和/或测量 beta-D-Glucuronidase 活性的指示剂化合物的样品,以及
(iii) 使用所述指示剂进行需要检测或测量 beta-D
葡糖醛酸酶活性的试验。
