Canvax X-Gal C0043

X-Gal, > 99% purity confirmed by hplc

X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-ß-D-galacto-pyranoside) is a chromogenic substrate for beta-galactosidase. ß-Galactosidase cleaves the substrate and releases colorless galactose and 5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl (X). The indoxyl will be oxidized to the insoluble 5,5'-dibromo-4,4'-dichloro-indigo, forming an intense blue precipitate.
