Description

Application

4-Nitrophenyl phosphate di(tris) salt has been used:

• as a substrate to quantify tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity in cell lysates[1]
• to determine phosphatase activity using native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE)[2]
• for alkaline phosphatase in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)[2]

Biochem/physiol Actions

p-Nitrophenyl Phosphate (pNPP) is a preferred substrate for alkaline phosphatase in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) procedures, because of its high sensitivity. This substrate produces a soluble yellow end-product and can be read spectrophotometrically at 405 nm.
