Application

4-Nitrophenyl dodecanoate has been used as a substrate:
  • for carboxylesterase to assess the enzyme-substrate affinity[1]
  • in a chromogenic assay to evaluate lipase activity[2]
  • to determine the esterase activity of patatin[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

4-Nitrophenyl dodecanoate is a p-nitrophenol ester derivative[1] and serves as a typical model substrate in lipase assays.[4]
