Descrizione

General description

Chlorophenol red-β-D-galactopyranoside (CPRG) is a long-wavelength yellow[1] dye commonly used for colorimetric assays.[2] It serves as a substrate for β-galactosidase (β-gal) which hydrolyzes CPRG to form chlorophenol red (purple colored). This product is quantified by measuring its absorbance at 570 nm.[1] CPRG is used to identify fecal coliform bacteria. It is about 10 times more sensitive than other chromogenic agents such as o-nitrophenyl-β-galactoside (ONPG). CPRG also has a high rapid turnover.[2]

Application

Chlorophenol Red-β-D-galactopyranoside has been used as a substrate for β-galactosidase (β-gal):

• in paper-based cell-free protein expression system for target RNA detection[1]
• in colorimetric detection of multiple clinically relevant mutations using a lacZ output gene[3]
• in colorimetric assay for bacteria quantification[4]

Other Notes

Measures the expression levels of β-galactosidase in transfected cells. The lacZ gene is a popular reporter gene in transfection reactions because its product, β-galactosidase, is a very stable enzyme.
