Total Carotenoids Assay Kit – 400 Tests | Bioquochem
The Total Carotenoids Assay Kit (cat. KB05052-400T) enables rapid spectrophotometric quantification of total carotenoid content in plant materials, food products, and biological samples.
Carotenoids (including β-carotene, lycopene, lutein, zeaxanthin, and astaxanthin) are fat-soluble pigments with important roles as precursors of vitamin A, antioxidants, and photoprotective agents. The kit employs an optimized solvent extraction followed by spectrophotometric measurement at characteristic wavelengths (445–470 nm). Results are expressed as β-carotene equivalents (BCE).
