Description
Creative Biolabs' sucrose assay kit provides a convenient for specifically measuring the sucrose levels in various biological samples (such as serum, plasma, body fluids, food, growth medium, etc.). Sucrose is converted into glucose and fructose by invertase. Then the generated glucose is specifically oxidized to generate a product that reacts with the probe to generate color (λ = 570 nm) and Fluorometric (Ex / Em = 535/587 nm). The free glucose background can be corrected using appropriate controls. Other disaccharides (such as lactose and maltose) will not interfere with the measurement. This can detect sucrose concentrations of 0.0002-10 mM.
