General description: Lactulose is a synthetic disaccharide derived from galactose and fructose. It is not absorbed in the gut and is frequently used in the treatment of constipation and hepatic encephalopathy. Studies have reported that lactulose administration may cause an increase in fecal nitrogen. It is also known to function as a prebiotic. Lactulose measurements can be used to detect gastrointestinal dysfunctions. This Lactulose Assay Kit is a highly sensitive assay for determining lactulose levels (ranging from 200-1000 pmole/well) in a variety of samples such as food and dairy products. Lactulose concentration is determined by a coupled enzyme assay, which results in a fluorometric (lambdaex = 535/lambdaem = 587 nm) product proportional to the lactulose present.
Suitability: Suitable for the detection of lactulose in foods, dairy, and other products.
