Description
The Citric Acid test kit is a flexible and simple method for the rapid and reliable measurement and analysis of citric acid (citrate) in foods, beverages and other materials.
The number of manual tests per kit can be doubled if all volumes are halved. This can be readily accommodated using the MegaQuantTM Wave Spectrophotometer.
Advantages
- Extended cofactors stability. Dissolved cofactors stable for > 1 year at 4oC.
- Reconstituted citrate lyase stable for 4 weeks at 4oC / 6 months below -10oC
- Buffer / cofactor / enzyme tablets for efficient use of kit components
- PVP incorporated to prevent tannin inhibition
- Very competitive price (cost per test)
- Mega-Calc™ software tool is available for hassle-free raw data processing
- Standard included
- Suitable for manual, microplate and auto-analyser formats
