5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl a-D-mannopyranoside

5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl a-D-mannopyranoside is a chemical that is used to study the process of lysosomal hydrolase activity. It is stable in acidic conditions and has low energy x-rays. 5Bromo-4-chloro-3indolyl aDmannopyranoside can be found at physiological levels in the human body, making it an ideal candidate for studies of lysosomal hydrolase activity. This chemical binds to the lysosomal membrane and blocks the transport of calcium ions, causing an increase in extracellular calcium concentration. The optical properties of this compound can be measured using optical imaging techniques and microprocessor magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), which are both processes that require minimal sample volumes. 5Bromo-4chloro-3indolyl aDmannopyranoside also has lysosomal hydrolase
