Description
Trehalose Colorimetric Assay Kit (MAES0435)
The Trehalose Colorimetric Assay Kit is designed for the quantitative determination of trehalose in biological samples. Trehalose is a non-reducing disaccharide composed of two glucose units and serves as an important energy reserve and stress-protective molecule in many lower plants, invertebrates, and microorganisms. Its unique stabilizing properties have also led to widespread applications across the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries.
In this assay, trehalose is specifically hydrolyzed by trehalase to generate two molecules of glucose. The released glucose is subsequently quantified using the GOD-POD colorimetric method. A parallel control well is included to correct for endogenous glucose, ensuring accurate measurement of trehalose-derived glucose only. The assay offers high specificity, excellent sensitivity, and reliable performance across a range of sample types.

Trehalose, a non-reducing disaccharide composed of two glucose molecules, is widely found in lower plants, invertebrates and microorganisms. Trehalose is the main energy storage substance for many insects and fungi. In addition, trehalose has a non-specific protective effect on organisms and biological macromolecules. This special property makes it widely used in many fields such as cosmetics, food industry, medicine and agriculture. This kit specifically hydrolyzes trehalose into two molecules of glucose by trehalose enzyme, and then detects the glucose content by the GOD-POD method. Control well is set up to eliminate the influence of the glucose background value, thereby determining the trehalose content in the sample. It has the characteristics of strong specificity and high sensitivity
