o-Nitrophenyl-β-D-xylobioside (Cat.No:R000624) is a substrate frequently employed in enzymatic assays to measure the activity of xylanases, enzymes that break down xylan, a major component of plant cell walls. The release of o-nitrophenol upon enzymatic hydrolysis allows for quantifying xylanase activity, aiding in enzyme characterization and screening.
