The Glucomannan test kit is suitable for the measurement and analysis of Glucomannan in plant products and food.
UV-method for the determination of Glucomannan in plant
products, foodstuffs and other materials
Principle:
(β-mannanase)
(1) Ac-Glucomannan + H2O → Ac-glucomanno-oligomers
(pH 12.5)
(2) Ac-Glucomanno-oligomers + H2O → glucomanno-oligomers
+ acetate
(β-glucosidase + β-mannosidase)
(3) Glucomanno-oligomers + H2O → D-glucose + D-mannose
(hexokinase)
(4) D-glucose + D-mannose + ATP → G-6-P + M-6-P + ADP
(glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase)
(5) G-6-P + NADP+ → gluconate-6-phosphate + NADPH + H+
(phosphomannose isomerase) (phosphoglucose isomerase)
(6) M-6-P → F-6-P → G-6-P

Detection limit: 1-100% of sample weight
Application examples:
Jelly sweets, cosmetics, food gums and other materials
Method recognition: Novel method
Advantages
The pH of the assay solution after the sample is added should be the same as that of the assay buffer that is supplied with the kit.
Low sample volumes (e.g. 0.1 mL) are not likely to affect the pH of the assay solution and therefore may not require pH adjustment.
Samples above 0.1 mL are more likely to affect the pH of the assay solution and therefore the pH of these samples should be adjusted as described in the data booklet, prior to addition to the assay.
Sometimes the addition of the last assay component can cause a small negative absorbance change in the blank samples due to a dilution effect and in such cases it is recommended that the real absorbance values be used in the calculation of results.
If you suspect that the Megazyme test kit is not performing as expected such that expected results are not obtained please do the following:
