설명

일반 설명

β-Glucuronidase Type H-2 from Helix pomatia is a crude solution of enzymes derived from the Roman snail. Many β-glucuronidases derived from mollusks also contain sulfatase activity.

애플리케이션

β-Glucuronidase from Helix pomatia has been used:

• to convert isoflavone conjugates to their aglycone forms in urine and soymilk samples for high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) detection
• as a component in the protoplasting solution
• for the generation of aromatic and phenolic compounds from the plasma and urine samples for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)
• to hydrolyze glucuronide and sulfate conjugated metabolites in fecal samples

β-glucuronidase was used in the measurement of aromatization by a urine technique suitable for the evaluation of aromatase inhibitors in vivo.

생화학적/생리학적 작용

β-glucuronidase (β-GIc) is an exoglycosidase that catalyzes the breakdown of complex carbohydrates. In humans it converts conjugated bilirubin into the unconjugated form, making bilirubin suitable for reabsorption.

Used for the hydrolysis of glucuronide conjugates in urinary metabolite analysis

품질
