1. Intended use

Enzytec™ Liquid Succinic acid E8580 is enzymatic UV assay for the determination of succinic acid in foodstuffs and other sample materials.

2. General information

- Succinic acid (or succinate) is found in all plant and animal materials, as this dicarboxylic acid plays a central role in the metabolism of the citric acid cycle. The concentration of succinic acid is monitored in the production of many foods and beverages, including wine, soy sauce, soy flour, fruit juice and dairy products (e.g. cheese).

The Enzytec™ Liquid product line enables the enzymatic determination of sugars, organic acids and other food components. These reagents are all liquid and ready-to-use, which brings a huge improvement in the lab organization:

- In small laboratories, it is possible to test a few samples and store the reagents for further usage, since the original shelf-life remains valid.

- In large laboratories with automation, the reagents can be placed directly on any biochemistry analyzer, and stay refrigerated on board for true random-access.

3. Benefits 

- Reagents are liquid and ready-to-use (no reconstitution).

- Easy handling with same pipeting scheme for all tests (2-reagent format).

- Reagents are stable up to the expiry date, even after opening.

- Easy and safe use on biochemistry analyzers.
