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.
This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company and was previously called K995 Chitosan Colorimetric Assay Kit. K995-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab273338.
