dc.description.abstractColorimetric detection of reaction products is typically preferred for initial surveys of acetyl xylan esterase (AcXE) activity. This chapter will describe common colorimetric methods, and variations thereof, for measuring AcXE activities on commercial, synthesized, and natural substrates. Whereas assays using pNP-acetate, α-naphthyl acetate, and 4-methylumbelliferyl acetate (4MUA) are emphasized, common methods used to measure AcXE activity towards carbohydrate analogs (e.g., acetylated p-nitrophenyl β-d-xylopyranosides) and various acetylated xylans are also described. Strengths and limitations of the colorimetric assays are highlighted.en
