4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide hydrate is a fluorogenic substrat (λex=362 nm, λem=445 nm). 4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide hydrate has potential applications in detecting the activity of β-glucuronidase and the number of Escherichia coli[1][2][3].
4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide hydrate (156 μM-5 mM; 30 min) releases 4-methylumbelliferone at 37℃ for enzymatic reactions[2].
4-Methylumbelliferyl-β-D-glucuronide hydrate (50 μg/mL; 24 h) is used to detect the number of Escherichia coli in TSA medium[3].
