Biological Activity

[Description]:

5-Bromo-3-indolyl β-D-galactopyranoside (Bluo-Gal) is a chromogenic substrate to detect bacterial β-D-galactosidase activity. 5-Bromo-3-indolyl β-D-galactopyranoside is used both to recognize labelled myofibers, and beta-gal positive organelles inside single myofibers[1].
