IPTG

IPTG

>99.0% Purity confirmed by HPLC & Dioxane free

Product Overview:

IPTG (Isopropyl B-D-thiogalactopyranoside), Dioxane-Free is an analogue of allolactose that binds specifically to the repressor protein of the lac operon and induces expression of β-galactosidase in Escherichia coli. Unlike allolactose, IPTG is not a substrate for b-galactosidase, as the carbon-sulfur bond cannot be cleaved by the enzyme, so its concentration remains constant. The compound is widely used with X-Gal plates to screen for blue/white selection of recombinant bacteria.

    X-Gal

    X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-galacto-pyranoside) is a chromogenic substrate for beta-galactosidase. β-Galactosidase cleaves the substrate and releases colorless galactose  and 5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl (X). The indoxyl will be oxidized to the insoluble 5,5′-dibromo-4,4′-dichloro-indigo, forming an intense blue...
