Fluorogenic substrate for α-D-mannosidase yielding a blue fluorescent solution upon cleavage. Used for determination of lectin in very dilute solution by fluorescence quenching, in studies of the kinetics of saccharide binding to the dimer form of concanavalin A. Further used for diagnosis of alpha-mannosidosis by measuring α-mannosidase in plasma.
