Biochemical and Physiological Mechanisms
4-Nitrophenyl phosphate disodium salt hexahydrate (pNPP) is a non-proteinaceous and non-specific substrate for determining protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Hydrolysis of pNPP yields p-nitrophenol. pNPP is a common chromogenic substrate for alkaline
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenyl phosphates. These are aromatic organooxygen compounds containing a phosphate group, which is O-esterified with a phenyl group.
