4-Methylumbelliferyl β-D-galactopyranoside (MUG) is a UV-absorbing dye that serves as a fluorescent substrate for β-galactosidase in a planar yeast estrogen screen (pYES) for the detection of estrogen active compounds.
Application
4-Methylumbelliferyl β-D-galactopyranoside has been used as a substrate in β-galactosidase activity assay.
This study assessed the effects of 3 commercial organic acid (OA) preparations on growth performance, intestinal morphology, cecal microbiology, and immunity of Escherichia coli K88-challenged (ETEC) broiler chickens. One thousand one-day-old male broiler chickens were divided into 8 treatments of

The ability of Escherichia coli O157:H7 to induce cellular damage leading to disease in humans is related to numerous virulence factors, most notably the stx gene, encoding Shiga toxin (Stx) and carried by a bacteriophage. Loss of the Stx-encoding bacteriophage
The phytohormone 7-iso-(+)-jasmonoyl-L-isoleucine (JA-Ile) mediates plant defense responses against herbivore and pathogen attack, and thus increases plant resistance against foreign invaders. However, JA-Ile also causes growth inhibition; and therefore JA-Ile is not a practical chemical regulator of plant defense responses.

Inducible gene expression has emerged as a powerful tool for plant functional genomics. The estrogen receptor-based, chemical-inducible system XVE has been used in many plant species, but the limited systemic movement of inducer β-estradiol in transgenic rice plants has prohibited
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are genetic disorders that affect up to 1 in 25,000 births. They are caused by dysfunctions of lysosomal hydrolases that degrade glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) which accumulate in cells, damaging their proper functioning. There are 7 types of MPS, distinguished
