| ln Vitro |
The capacity of the enzyme to extract N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylgalactosamine residues bound by β-glycosidically from 4-Methylumbelliferyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-Glucopyranoside is a measure of its functionality[1].
The in vitro activity of this compound is its function as a fluorogenic substrate for β-hexosaminidases. Upon enzymatic cleavage, 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) is released, and its fluorescence can be used to quantify β-hexosaminidase activity. The compound enables sensitive and quantitative enzyme activity analysis. |
| ln Vivo |
4-Methylumbelliferyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranoside is not used as a therapeutic agent. Its in vivo utility is limited to research applications involving the measurement of β-hexosaminidase activity in biological samples. The compound is not intended for systemic therapeutic use.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for this compound involve incubating the fluorogenic substrate with β-hexosaminidase enzyme preparations in appropriate buffer conditions. The enzyme cleaves the substrate, releasing 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU), which is measured fluorimetrically. The fluorescence intensity is proportional to enzyme activity.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular experiments, this compound is typically used in cell-free systems for enzyme activity assays. The substrate can be added to cell lysates or purified enzyme preparations to assess β-hexosaminidase activity. The fluorogenic readout provides a sensitive and quantitative measure of enzyme activity.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.59 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.59 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
