5-Bromo-3-indolyldecanoateBluecaprate-5-Bromo-3-indolylcaprylate

5-Bromo-3-indolyl decanoate Blue caprate; 5-Bromo-3-indolyl caprylate 5-Bromo-3-indolyl decanoate (BID) is a chromogenic enzyme substrate often used for the detection of lipase activity. It is hydrolyzed by lipase to produce a blue-violet product, which can be detected visually or by spectrophotometry. BID is particularly useful for the detection of microbial lipases in food and environmental samples. It is commonly used in a wide range of biochemical, biological, and environmental testing applications that require precise lipase enzyme analysis.
