Usage

Description

CELLULOSE AZURE is a dye that is used to measure the activity of cellulase enzymes and to determine the lignocellulolytic activity of fungi. It is a valuable tool in the study of cellulose degradation and the development of biofuels and other bioproducts.

Uses

Used in Enzyme Activity Assays:
CELLULOSE AZURE is used as a substrate for determining cellulase activity. It allows researchers to measure the efficiency of cellulase enzymes in breaking down cellulose, which is an important step in the production of biofuels and other bioproducts.
Used in Fungal Lignocellulolytic Activity Assays:
CELLULOSE AZURE is used as a supplement in Modified Melin-Norkrans (MMN) medium for determining the lignocellulolytic activity of fungi. This application helps researchers to evaluate the ability of fungi to degrade lignocellulosic materials, which is crucial for the development of sustainable bioprocesses.
