    Product Description

    7-Methoxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)coumarin is a fluorogenic substrate for cytochrome P450s (CYPs).1 Upon enzymatic cleavage by CYPs, 7-hydroxy-4-(trifluoromethyl)coumarin (HFC) is released and its fluorescence can be used to quantify CYP activity. HFC displays excitation/emission maxima of 410/510 nm, respectively.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
