2′-(4-Methylumbelliferyl) -alpha-DN-acetylneuraminic acid sodium cusbada waa ka kooban kiimiko oo caadi ahaan loo isticmaalo baaritaanka ogaanshaha iyo cilmi-baarista.Waa nooc ka soo jeeda sialic acid, oo ah nooc ka mid ah unugyada karbohaydrayt ee laga helo dusha unugyada.
Xaruntan waxaa loo isticmaalaa sidii substrate loogu talagalay enzymes loo yaqaan neuraminidases, kuwaas oo u dhaqma inay ka saaraan sialic acid hadhaaga glycoproteins iyo glycolipids.Marka enzymes-ku ay u dhaqmaan 2'- (4-Methylumbelliferyl) -alpha-DN-acetylneuraminic acid sodium sodium, waxay sii daysaa badeecada fluorescent ee loo yaqaan 4-methylumbelliferone.
Fluorescence-ka ay dhaliso xaruntu waa la qiyaasi karaa oo la qiyaasi karaa, iyadoo la siinayo macluumaadka ku saabsan waxqabadka enzymes neuraminidase.Tani waxay si gaar ah faa'iido u leedahay daraasadda cudurrada kala duwan iyo xaaladaha la xidhiidha dheef-shiid kiimikaad sialic acid ah.
Xarunta ayaa sidoo kale loo isticmaalaa ujeedooyinka ogaanshaha, sida ogaanshaha caabuqyada fayraska ee ku lug leh waxqabadka neuraminidase.Qiimayntan, xarunta waxaa loo isticmaalaa in lagu aqoonsado joogitaanka fayraska gaarka ah ama la qiimeeyo waxtarka neuraminidase inhibitors ee daaweynta fayraska.
