General description
Method: reflectometric with test strips 1 - 100 mg/l Reflectoquant®
The Reflectoquant Glucose test is suitable for determining glucose in beverages, food and preserves. Furthermore you can use it in fermentation solutions. Under the catalytic effect of glucose oxidase, glucose is converted into gluconic acid lactone. In the presence of peroxidase the hydrogen peroxide formed in the process reacts with an organic redox indicator to form a blue-green dye that is determined reflectometrically. For pre-testing a sample in an economic and quick way to estimate the glucose concentration and a possible dilution factor prior to using this quantitative method we recommend our semi-quantitative MQuant test strip for glucose.
