12x10ml Angle Rotor（Plastic Steel） 

LyoCakes are ready-to-use, freeze-dried master mixes pre-aliquoted PCR-strips or reaction-tubes.

LyoCakes contain: DNA polymerase(s), reaction buffer, dNTPs and primers and probes. They are rehydrated within seconds in any aqueous solutions, which  makes reaction setup very easy. Simply add a biological sample and place the tube in a PCR cycler. 

Storage: LyoCakes are shipped and stored simply at room-temperature. This provides a more cost efficient and ecological distribution compared to other master mixes.

As this is a customized product, we take your requirements very serious. You would like to know more? Please get in touch!

Description

The Benzoic Acid Detection Kit provides a rapid, simple, sensitive, and reliable test suitable for screening of Benzoic Acid concentration.

---

Benzoic Acid is a white solid that is an extensively used preservative.  Although this preservative prevents or delays nutritional losses due to microbiological, enzymatic or chemical changes of foods during its shelf life there is a suspicion that small amounts of benzene may be formed from benzoic acid in nonalcoholic beverages in the presence of ascorbic acid. Benzoic acid and ascorbic acid are food additives which must be declared on the food.  Benzoic acid or E 210 is a preservative which also occurs naturally, for instance, in cranberries. A maximum amount of 150 mg/l benzoic acid may be added to non-alcoholic flavored beverages.

Highly Sensitive Assay to Screen for Benzoic Acid
Visual Readout (sample dependent: milk, red/pink)
Detection range of 1ppm to 1500ppm
Tube or Plate based options available
Compatible with the Nix Sensor or plate readers to obtain quantitative results.

The MBG4 reagent contains a single substrate, namely 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl-β-(3¹-β-D-cellotriosyl-glucoside) (BCNPBG4). The benzylidene acetal group prevents any hydrolytic action by exo-acting hydrolytic enzymes such as β-glucosidase or cellobiohydrolase.

Mixed linkage β-glucanase (endo-1,3:1,4-β-glucanase) / lichenase (EC 3.2.1.73) acts specifically to release 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol (CNP) from this substrate. The rate of release of CNP is directly related to the β-glucanase/lichenase activity in a sample. The reaction is terminated and the phenolate colour is developed on addition of Tris buffer solution (pH = 10.0).

Note that the substrate is not hydrolysed by β-glucosidase or cellobiohydrolase. The substrate can be hydrolysed by certain endo-cellulases (e.g. Trichoderma sp.) but this does not result in an increase in absorbance.
