1-Naphthyl β-D-glucuronide sodium salt is a compound often used in enzymology and analytical biochemistry. It serves as a chromogenic substrate for the enzyme β-glucuronidase, which upon cleavage releases a naphthol moiety that can be easily detected. This property is harnessed in assays to measure the activity of β-glucuronidase, an enzyme important in the metabolism of glucuronides. The compound is also utilized in environmental studies to monitor microbial degradation processes, as the presence of β-glucuronidase activity can indicate the metabolic potential of the microbial community. Additionally, 1-Naphthyl β-D-glucuronide sodium salt is used in the synthesis of labeled compounds where the naphthyl group serves as a detectable moiety, aiding in the traceability and analysis of the target molecules in complex systems.
