Product Information: D-Sorbitol Colorimetric Assay Kit: Colorimetric Assay to Measure Sorbitol in a variety of Samples such as Foods, Fruits, Fruit juices, Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics, Paper. etc. within 40 min. Fast, Easy & Sensitive. Detection Range: 0.1-10 nmol. 100 Assays.
Background: Sorbitol is one of the 6 carbon sugar alcohols. It is commonly used as an artificial sweetener, as a laxative and in cosmetics as a humectant and thickening agent. Sorbitol is produced naturally in a variety of fruits. It can be produced in humans in small amounts by the reduction of glucose by aldose reductase. Due to its poor ability to diffuse across the cell membrane, sorbitol can be trapped in cells and is believed to be one of the causes of damage (due to osmotic effects) in diabetes. Interestingly, sorbitol can be used as a screen for the O154:H7 strain of E. coli, since this strain is one of the few strains which cannot metabolize sorbitol. MyBioSource's Sorbitol Colorimetric Assay Kit is designed to measure sorbitol in a variety of samples such as foods, fruits, fruit juices, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, paper and some other biological samples. In the assay, sorbitol is oxidized to fructose with the proportional development of intense color with an absorbance maximum at 560 nm. The assay is useful over the range of 0.1-10 nmol of Sorbitol per sample.
Summary: Detection method- Absorbance (560 nm)
Applications-TThe assay is useful over the range of 0.1-10 nmol of Sorbitol per sample.

Product Notes
The D-Sorbitol (Catalog #AAA841888) 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-Sorbitol, 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
