| Product Name | Malate Assay Reagent |
| Catalog No. | CMTR-HMM-0044 |
| Description | L-(-) malic acid is an intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. It plays a crucial role in the Calvin cycle of plant carbon fixation. In lower organisms, malic acid is converted into lactic acid during malic acid-lactic acid fermentation, producing carbon dioxide. Malic acid is commonly used as an additive in the food and pharmaceutical industries, so its quantitative determination is critical in the production of beer, wine, cheese, and fruits. |
| Application | This product can be used to determine L(-) malic acid levels in various samples. |
| Principle | Malic acid is specifically oxidized to form a product that reacts with the substrate probe to produce color (λmax = 450 nm). This detection kit can detect 1–10 nmol of malic acid in 50 µl of sample, with a detection sensitivity of approximately 20 µM. |
