Megazyme K-INOSL: myo-Inositol Assay Kit
Product code: K-INOSL
The myo-Inositol Assay Kit is a reliable and accurate enzymatic UV-method for the specific measurement and analysis of myo-inositol in animal feeds, foods and various other materials.
Phytic acid content of samples with very low levels of free myo-inositol can also be determined using K-INOSL. This can be achieved by measuring the amount of myo-inositol released after de-phosphorylation of phytic acid with the enzymes phytase and alkaline phosphatase, as used with the Megazyme Phytic Acid/Total Phosphorus Assay Kit (K-PHYT).
Not suitable for the determination of myo-inositol in baby formula.
Note for Content: The number of manual tests per kit can be doubled if all volumes are halved. This can be readily accommodated using the MegaQuantTM Wave Spectrophotometer (D-MQWAVE).
