    Product Description

    DiFMUP is a fluorogenic substrate for phosphatases.1 Upon enzymatic cleavage by phosphatases, 6,8-difluoro-7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (Item No. 36017) is released, which has an absorption/emission maxima of 358/455 nm, respectively, and its fluorescence can be used to quantify phosphatase activity.2 DiFMUP has been used to detect alkaline phosphatase in isolated rat tibia bone tissue.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
