General description

Maltose is a disaccharide, composed of two glucose units linked by an α bond. It is produced from the hydrolysis of glycogen or starch, serving as a source of energy for plants and animals. Maltose can be found in foods such as grains, and other processed products.

Features and Benefits

  • Linear detection range 2 to 500 µM maltose for the colorimetric assay and 1 to 50 µM for the fluorometric assay.
  • Compatible with high-throughput handling systems.

Suitability

The kit is suitable for maltose determination in various biological samples such as serum, urine, food and beverages, etc.

Principle

The Maltose Assay Kit provides a simple, one step assay for measuring maltose. In this assay, maltose is converted to two glucoses, which are then oxidized to form a colored product. The color intensity of the product at 570 nm or fluorescence intensity at λEx = 530 nm/λEm = 585 nm is directly proportional to maltose concentration in the sample.
