Abcam's Sucrose Assay Kit provides a convenient means for
specifically measuring sucrose levels from various biological samples (e.g.
serum, plasma, body fluids, food, growth medium, etc.). Sucrose is converted to
glucose and fructose by invertase. The generated glucose is then specifically
oxidized to generate a product which reacts with a probe to generate color (λ=
570 nm) and fluorescence (Ex/Em = 535/587 nm). Use of proper controls allows
for correcting free glucose background. Other disaccharides such as lactose and
maltose do not interfere with the assay. The method can detect 0.0002-10 mM
sucrose concentrations.

This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company
and was previously called K626 Sucrose Colorimetric/Fluorometric Assay Kit.
K626-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab83387.
Sucrose (C12H22O11;
FW:342.3), also called table sugar, is one of the most important fuel sources
to generate the universal energy molecule ATP. Sucrose is a disaccharide which
can be converted into one glucose and one fructose.
