4-Nitrophenyl beta-D-cellotetraoside (p-Nitopheyl beta-D-cellotetaoside) is a small molecule cellulose mimetic consisting of a tetramer of D-glucose units linked by beta-1-4 glycosidic bonds. The fragmentation pattern of 4-Nitrophenyl beta-D-cellotetraoside after enzymatic hydrolysis can be analyzed by TLC or by the release of 4-nitrophenol, which has a strong absorbance at 395 nm in alkaline solutions. 4-Nitrophenyl beta-D-cellotetraoside can be used in cellulose degradation studies to determine the specificity of cellulases[1].
