Popis: | A novel substrate 3-cyano-4-trifluoromethylumbel-liferyl-β-D-galactopyranoside, was synthesized and used for the continuous photometric and fluorimetric assay of β-galactosidase from E.coli. The reaction product, 3-cyano-4-triluoromethylumbelliferone is fluorescent at neutral pH values (excitation and emission wavelength maxima: 440 and 500 nm, respectively and has intense absorption at 440 nm (c=42000 M−-1cm−1, pH 7.5). The properties of the dye released upon the enzyme action on the substrate (low pKa=6.0) and its possible avidity to nitrocellulose paper allowed visual detection up to 0.1 fmoles of β-galactosidase from E.coli in 5 min. The same procedure was used for visual identification of bacterial clones expressing β-galactosidase activity after transferring the lysed clones on nitrocellulose. |
