Related Product Information for D-Mannitol assay kit
Background/Introduction: D-Mannitol is one of the most abundant sugar alcohols in nature. It can be produced in the biosphere by a range of organisms such as bacterie, yeast, fungi and almost all plants. Mannitol functions as a carbohydrate storage depot, as a scavenger for reactive oxygen species and as an osmoprotectant. Recent studies have shown that increased mannitol content in plants protects them against fungal infections and improves resistance to drought and high salinity. The mannitol pathway reversibly converts fructose to mannitol and serves as the main carbohydrate cycle for fungi survival. Measurement of mannitol level is important for evaluating mannitol metabolic pathways and commercially, in developing fungi and drought resistant plants. In D-Mannitol Assay Kit, D-Mannitol is converted to D-frustose by mannitol dehydrogenase in the presence of NAD to form NADH, which reduces a colorless probe to a chromogen with strong absorbance at 450nm. L-Arabitol, another sugar alcohol, also acts as substrate for mannitol dehydrogenase & undergoes similar reaction; therefore, this kit can also be used to measure L-arabitol. The D-mannitol assay kit is fast(~ 20 minutes), sensitive & easy to use. This assay kit can detect mannitol level less than 1nmol/reaction (< 10uM)& can be used for a variety of sample types.

Product Notes
The D-Mannitol (Catalog #AAA841691) is an Assay Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "D-Mannitol, Assay Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
