Related Product Information for XGLUC, Sodium Salt substrate
Indigo-blue chromogenic substrate used in the detection of -glucuronidase in bacterial colonies.
The chromogenic substrate X-Gluc is used in a variety of applications for the detection of the $-glucuronidase enzyme. Upon reduction, X-Gluc produces a localized color, making it useful in identifying GUS gene presence in most cell types1 and for the detection of the GUS gene fusion marker in plants.2,3 X-Gluc has reported applications in the detection of contaminated food samples such as meat, dairy, and shellfish products.4,5 X-Gluc also has clinical applications in the assessment of urinary tract infection by d etecting the pr esence of E. coli.6 It has gained international acceptance as an accurate indicator for the presence of E. coli in potable water samples b y reducing false positives and negatives found with traditional methods.
BENEFITS -Saves time compared to other E. coli detection methods... 24 hour direct plating method7,9,11 -Minimizes errors...less than 1% false negatives and less than 5% false positives7,8,9 -Easy visual d etection...8max is in visible range -Sensitive for p resence/ab sence of E. coli...eliminates limitation s of very rapid presence/absence or chemiluminometric methods12

Product Notes
The XGLUC, Sodium Salt (Catalog #AAA639154) is a Substrate and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Suitable for use in environmental testing of E. coli in potable water, detection of GUS expression in the study of trans cription, translation, and protein transport events, determination of urinary tract infections and identifying food products contaminated with E. coli. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the XGLUC, Sodium Salt for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "XGLUC, Sodium Salt, Substrate" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
