Determination of Significance:
Sorbitol is widely found in animals, plants, microorganisms and cultured cells. It's a form of sugar transport, and also closely related to biological resistance and food flavor. Therefore, it is often necessary to detect the changes of sorbitol content in sugar metabolism, stress resistance and food research.
Measurement Principle:
Sorbitol can form blue complex with copper ions in alkaline solution, which has characteristic absorption peaks at 655 nm.
Self Provided:
