DESCRIPTION

Glucose and sucrose are the primary fuel sources which enter the metabolic network resulting in ATP generation. Glucose is a monosaccharide which is the basic building block of most complex carbohydrates like starch, glycogen and cellulose. Sucrose is a disaccharide which is composed of one glucose and one fructose. Given the important impact these molecules have on diabetes, metabolic syndrome obesity and other metabolic disorders it is important to be able to quantify them with precision. AkrivisBio’s Glucose and Sucrose Assay Kit provides a simple, sensitive means of measuring glucose and sucrose from a wide variety of biological samples (serum, plasma, saliva, sweat, and other body fluids, food, growth media, etc.) with a sensitivity below 100 picomoles.
