โœฆ Synopsis


A sample solution (1 ml) of D-ghCOSe, a 1% aqueous solution ( 1 ml) of 2-cyanoacetamide, and 0.1 M borate buffer (pH 9.0, 2 ml) are mixed and heated for 10 min in a boiling-water bath. Measurement of the absorbance of the reaction mixture at 276 nm allows the rapid and simple determination of 5 to 750 nmol of D-ghicose with errors and coefficients of variation less than 0.4 and 2.6'5, respectively. Other reducing carbohydrates give similar results. Relative molar absorbances for various carbohydrates are compared and discussed in relation to their structures. Interference with some biochemical compounds is also investigated.

A rapid, facile, and sensitive uv-spectrophotometric assay has been developed for the determination of the enzymatic degradation of polysaccharides that generates reducing sugars. The assay was carried out with 2-cyanoacetamide in a single test tube. The solution was left at pH 9 by the addition of

A method was developed to analyze reducing sugars manually by use of a 2,2'bicinchoninate reagent. Potassium phosphate was used to buffer the reagent. Ethylene glycol increased the sensitivity of the assay for several sugars. Sugar determinations can be performed in the presence of borate ion. In co
