Overview

Description

Description: Enzymatic method for the determination of D-Glucose. Based on the spectrophotometric measurement of NADPH produced through the reactions, after addition of hexokinase (HK) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH). This rapid and simple specific enzymatic method is used for the determination of D-glucose in foodstuffs such as baking agents, diet beer and dietetic foods, as well as in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and biological samples. The analysis of D-glucose in foodstuffs is normally performed in conjunction with D-fructose, maltose and sucrose. D-Glucose occurs widely in plants and animals. It is an essential component of carbohydrate metabolism and occurs frequently in the free form along with D-fructose and sucrose. However, the more important forms are those of di- (lactose, maltose, sucrose), tri-, oligo- and polysaccharides (dextrins, starch, cellulose). It is present in significant quantities in honey, wine and beer, and a range of solid foodstuffs such as bread and pastries, chocolate and candies. Measurement of D-glucose is extremely important in biochemistry and clinical analysis, as well as in food analysis; it is mostly determined along with other carbohydrates.
