Product description
This kit uses α-amylase and glucoamylase to hydrolyze non-resistant starch into D-glucose, and the remaining precipitate is the resistant starch in the sample. The resistant starch is dissolved by a strong alkali solution and further hydrolyzed into glucose by glucoamylase. The content of non-resistant starch and resistant starch is obtained by detecting the glucose content.
