The Aspartame test kit is a simple and reliable method for the specific measurement and analysis of Aspartame in beverages and foodstuffs.

Suitable for manual, auto-analyser and microplate formats.

UV-method for the determination of Aspartame (and breakdown 
products) in foodstuffs, beverages and other materials

Principle:
                       (pH 12.5)
(1) Asp-Phe-O-Me → Asp-Phe + MeOH

                      (dipeptidase M)
(2) Asp-Phe + H₂O → L-aspartate + L-phenylalanine

                      (glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase)
(3) L-Aspartate + 2-oxoglutarate → L-glutamate + oxaloacetate

                                 (L-malate dehydrogenase)
(4) Oxaloacetate + NADH + H⁺ → L-malate + NAD⁺

Kit size:                            50 assays (manual) / 500 (microplate) 
                                         / 500 (auto-analyser)
Method:                            Spectrophotometric at 340 nm
Reaction time:                  ~ 5 min
Detection limit:                 0.57 mg/L
