ROCHE X-Gal5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside

Application

X-Gal is a chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase that produces a rich blue color that can easily be detected visually over background. X-Gal is the substrate of choice for blue-white selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ genotype.

X-Gal has been used for immunohistocytochemistry applications. It is also the substrate of choice for blue-white selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ genotype.

General description

X-Gal is a chromogenic substrate for ?-galactosidase that produces a rich blue color that can easily be detected visually over background. It is soluble in dimethylformamide and methanol. The product is not soluble in water.
