Megazyme K-TSHK: Total Starch HK Assay Kit
Product code: K-TSHK
The Total Starch HK (Hexokinase) Assay Kit for total starch determination in cereal flours and food products.
This assay kit contains an improved α-amylase that allows the amylase incubations to be performed at pH 5.0 (as well as pH 7.0). The method has been further modified by adjusting the D-glucose determination to a hexokinase/glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase/NADP+ based format.
