Sucrose (saccharose) is cleaved by sucrose phosphorylase into fructose and glucose-1-phosphate. The latter is converted by phosphoglucomutase into glucose-6-phosphate. This is in turn oxidized by NAD under the catalytic effect of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase to gluconate-6-phosphate. In the presence of diaphorase the NADH formed in the process reduces a tetrazolium salt to a blue formazan that is determined reflectometrically on the RQflex®. For the determination of only glucose please refer to our MQuant® or Reflectoquant® Glucose tests.
Test strips for the reflectometers RQflex® 10, RQflex® 10 plus and RQflex® 20.
