SKU:: E-BC-K161-S
Physical State:: Tissue
Storage Conditions:: 2-8[o]C Protect from light.
Supplier:: Elabscience
Format:: Colorimetric
Extra Details:: Sucrose in plant tissue is hydrolyzed to glucose and fructose in boiling water bath under acidic conditions. 5-hydroxymethyl furfural was synthesized from fructose under acid condition and measure the ultraviolet absorption of 5-hydroxymethyl furfural. Glucose must be dissimilated into ketose structure and reduced to obtain 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, but the rate of isomerization of glucose to ketose is very slow. Therefore, the ultraviolet absorption of glucose is much smaller than fructose.
