Application and Effect
Neuraminidase Activity Assay: This compound is commonly used to measure the activity of neuraminidase enzymes in biological samples. By monitoring the fluorescence generated, researchers can determine the level of neuraminidase activity, which can help in the study of various diseases and conditions. Viral Infection Detection: Many viral infections, including influenza, involve neuraminidase activity. This compound can be used to detect and quantify the presence of specific viral strains by measuring fluorescent activity. It is particularly useful in assessing the effectiveness of neuraminidase inhibitors in antiviral treatments. Glycosylation Analysis: Sialic acid is an important component of glycoproteins and glycolipids. By incorporating 2'-(4-Methylumbelliferyl)-alpha-D-N-acetylneuraminic acid sodium salt into experiments, researchers can gain insights into sialic acid metabolism, glycosylation patterns, and related physiological processes. Drug Discovery: Neuraminidase inhibitors are a class of drugs used in the treatment of viral infections. This compound can be used in drug discovery studies, helping researchers identify and evaluate potential inhibitors of neuraminidase activity.Product Packing:
