Cellulose azure, a combination of insoluble cellodextrin and water-soluble reactive dye, serves multiple purposes in scientific research. It has proven effective as a substrate for measuring cellulase activity. Moreover, researchers have utilized cellulose azure as a supplement in Modified Melin-Norkrans (MMN) medium to assess the lignocellulolytic activity of fungi. Its unique properties make it useful for investigating and understanding the enzymatic breakdown of cellulose and the capabilities of lignocellulolytic organisms.
