8-FLUORO-4-ALKYLUMBELLIFERYL ALPHA-D-GLUCOPYRANOSIDE, BIOLOGICAL STERILIZATION INDICATOR INCLUDING THE SAME AND ITS USE IN A METHOD OF DETERMINING EFFICACY OF A STERILIZATION PROCESS
-
Page/Page column 53; 54, (2021/04/02)
A self-contained biological sterilization indicator comprises: a housing; bacterial spores comprising, and/or capable of producing, an enzyme capable of catalyzing cleavage of an enzyme substrate; and a frangible container containing a composition, wherein the composition comprises the enzyme substrate, wherein if the frangible container is broken the composition will contact the bacterial spores to form a mixture having an initial pH in the range from 6.0 to 9.0. The enzyme substrate comprises a fluorinated 4'-alkylumbelliferyl α-D-glucopyranoside represented by the structural formula (I), wherein R is an alkyl group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms. A biological sterilization indicator comprising a kit containing isolated components comprising (i) bacterial spores comprising, and/or capable of producing, an enzyme capable of catalyzing cleavage of the enzyme substrate and a method of assessing efficacy of a sterilization process are also disclosed.
A Practical Synthesis of 6,8-Difluoro-7-hydroxycoumarin Derivatives for Fluorescence Applications

The invention provides fluorogenic compounds and probes that can be used as reagents for measuring, detecting and/or screening superoxide. The fluorogenic compounds of the invention can produce fluorescence colors, such as green, yellow, red, or far-red. The invention further provides fluorogenic compounds for selectively staining superoxide in the mitochondria of living cells. The invention also provides methods that can be used to measure, directly or indirectly, the presence and/or amount of superoxide in chemical samples and biological samples such as cells and tissues in living organisms, and a high-throughput screening methods for detecting or screening superoxide or compounds that can increase or decrease the level of superoxide in chemical and biological samples.
