K lolac

Manufactured by Megazyme

K‐LOLAC is a colorimetric assay kit designed for the quantitative determination of L‐lactic acid (L‐lactate) in various samples. The kit employs an enzymatic reaction that converts L‐lactate to pyruvate, which is then coupled to the reduction of a tetrazolium dye, resulting in the formation of a colored compound that can be measured spectrophotometrically.

Quantitative analysis of lactose and glucose

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The concentration of free D-glucose, as well as the D-glucose component of lactose was determined by glucose spectrophotometric method using the lactose test kit (k-LOLAC, Megazyme). The method includes pre-treatment steps to clarify and deproteinate samples and also to remove the high levels of free D-glucose in the samples.
The determinations were performed according to the method for the measurement of lactose in low-lactose and lactose-free products under Standard Method Performance Requirement (SMPRVR) 2018.009 [17] (link). The absorbance reading of the samples was performed at wavelength at 340 nm using UV Vis Shimadzu UV-1900 spectrophotometer. The analyses were performed in triplicate.
The amount of D-glucose was determined based on the relationship:
The amount of lactose was determined based on the relationship:
where: F-dilution factor; The initial lactose concentration and the concentration of D-glucose released were used to calculate the hydrolysis efficiency.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
