Filter Paperase (FPA) Activity Assay Kit (Micro Method)

Cellulase is a multi-component enzyme system produced by microorganisms. It hydrolyzes the β-1,4-glucosidic bonds in cellulose to produce glucose. Studying filter paper activity is of great significance for cellulase research. Determination Principle: The reducing sugars produced by the hydrolysis of filter paper catalyzed by filter paper activity react with 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid to form a reddish-brown amino compound, which exhibits maximum absorbance at 540 nm. Within a certain range, the color intensity of the reaction solution is proportional to the amount of reducing sugars, allowing the filter paper activity to be determined and calculated.
