The D-Isocitric Acid test kit is for the specific and rapid measurement and analysis of D-isocitric acid in fruit juices.
Suitable for manual, auto-analyser and microplate formats.
UV-method for the determination of D-Isocitric Acid in foodstuffs
Principle:
(isocitrate dehydrogenase)
(1) D-Isocitric acid + NADP+ → 2-oxoglutarate + CO2 + NADPH + H+
(pH 9-10)
(2) D-Isocitric acid ester + H2O → D-isocitric acid + alcohol
(pH 9-10)
(3) D-Isocitric acid lactone + H2O → D-isocitric acid
Kit size: 100 assays (manual) / 1000 (microplate)
/ 1000 (auto-analyser)
Method: Spectrophotometric at 340 nm
Reaction time: ~ 3 min
Detection limit: 0.35 mg/L
