Water soluble xanthylium derivative substrates of rhodamine 110 and rhodol permit spectrophotometric and fluorescent measurements of trypsin-like enzymes without the addition of organic solvent additives and/or special water solubilizing agents. These novel substrates exhibit increased sensitivity for determining low levels of activity of trypsin-like enzymes such as proteolytic enzymes, cofactors, activators, antiactivators, and inhibitors. These substrates can be substituted for fibrinogen to monitor the pathways of blood coagulation.
