Product overview
Chitosan Assay Kit (Colorimetric) (ab273338) is a rapid, sensitive and convenient kit to measure Chitosan content in various samples. For example, foods (breads, meats, pet foods and drug capsules), liquids (serum, plasma, water and urine) and crops (plant and fruit surface).
In this assay, Chitosan is converted to an intermediate to generate a pink colored product, which is then detected by absorbance at 532 nm. The absorbance signal is directly proportional to the Chitosan concentration.
This kit can detect as low as 10 μg/ml under assay conditions.
