Signal Response:	Increase
Linear Range:	0.5 to 100 µg of L-fucose per assay
Limit of Detection:	0.68 mg/L
Reaction Time (min):	~ 10 min
Application examples:	L-Fucose is present as the main component in fucoidan (a marine polysaccharide), foods, pharmaceuticals and other materials (e.g. biological samples, etc.).
Method recognition:	Novel method

The L-Fucose test kit is a simple, rapid and reliable method, for the measurement and analysis of L-Fucose in plant extracts, biological samples and other materials. This kit can be used in the measurement of α-fucosidases that do not act on chromogenic substrates.

Note for Content: The number of manual tests per kit can be doubled if all volumes are halved.  This can be readily accommodated using the MegaQuant^TM  Wave Spectrophotometer (D-MQWAVE).

The β-Glucan Assay Kit (Yeast and Mushroom) is suitable for the indirect measurement of 1,3:1,6-β-glucan in yeast and mushroom preparations containing starch, glycogen, sucrose and trehalose.

We are happy to announce a new and improved procedure!

Trehalase enzyme has now been added to the β-Glucan Assay Kit (Yeast and Mushroom), further increasing the accuracy of β-glucan measurement for certain samples. The addition of trehalase removes instances of overestimation of β-glucan content in samples containing trehalose. Please refer to the assay protocol and the FAQ here for more information.

This product replaces the Enzymatic Yeast β-Glucan Assay Kit (K-EBHLG) as the method of measurement for β-glucan measurement in yeast samples. See here for more information. 

See our complete list of available polysaccharide assay kits.

• Very cost effective
• All reagents stable for > 12 months after preparation 
• Only enzymatic kit available 
• Simple format 
• Mega-Calc™ software tool is available from our website for hassle-free raw data processing 
• Standard included

OverView

ArcticZymes Proteinase is an unspecific endopeptidase originating from an Arctic marine microbial source. It has broad substrate specificity and is easy to inactivate after use.

Histones and other proteins are known to protect nucleic acids from interacting optimally with other DNA binding proteins and enzymes. ArcticZymes Proteinase is ideally suited for transforming chromatin and other dense nucleic acids to naked DNA. The enzyme is easy to heat-inactivate. This allows thermal inactivation at temperatures allowing RNA integrity as well as avoiding dissociation of dsDNA.

‍

Key Features 

• Easy to inactivate after use: 15 – 30 min at 55 – 60°C 
• Broad substrate specificity
• Active at high salt concentrations
• Compatible with downstream DNA analyses
• Available in Glycerol FREE formulation

Applications

• Lysis and releasing nucleic acid from single-cells and small tissue samples
• Optimization of DNA/RNA yields from nucleic acids when added to extraction procedures
