K-TSTA-100A Megazyme TOTAL STARCH ASSAY PROCEDURE
This kit contains 100 assays.
To satisfy the need for an extremely simple, yet quantitative and reliable, procedure for the measurement of total starch, Megazyme produces, and offers a total starch assay kit based on the use of thermostable a-amylase and amyloglucosidase (McCleary et al.). This method has been adopted by AOAC (Official Method 996.11) and
AACC (Method 76.13).
More recently, thermostable a-amylases that are active and stable at lower pH values have become available. Consequently, we have updated our total starch methodology to incorporate such an enzyme.
