Overview
Our Starch Assay Kit (Fluorometric) measures starch in food samples. First, starch is broken down into glucose monomers by amyloglucosidase. Glucose is then oxidized by glucose oxidase, producing D-gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide reacts specifically with the kit’s Fluorometric Probe and is detected at ex. 530-570 nm/em. 590-600 nm. Starch levels in unknown samples are determined based on the provided starch standard curve.
