General description
BCIP serves as a substrate for alkaline phosphatase. The reaction product has a blue color and is insoluble in water. The blue color can be visually seen.
Application
Use BCIP in alkaline phosphatase detection:
- Southern blot
- Northern blot
- Western blot
- Colony and plaque hybridization
- In situ hybridization
Quality
Function test: incubation with AP
Principle
Use of BCIP as substrate for alkaline phosphatase in combination with nitro blue tetrazolium chloride (NBT) as electron acceptor: Substrates and reaction products of alkaline phosphatase catalyzed color reaction with NBT/BCIP.
Physical form
Solution (50 mg/ml) in dimethylformamide (DMF)
