Product Description: 4-Nitrophenyl β-D-Cellobioside (p-Nitrophenyl β-D-cellobioside) is a cellotriose analog, a chromogenic substrate for the detection of cellulase activity. Exoglucanases, endoglucanases, and β-glucosidases hydrolyze 4-Nitrophenyl β-D-Cellobioside to yield p-nitrophenol (PNP)[1][2].
Formula: C18H25NO13
