New Developments in Biochemical Wine Analysis

Many of the Megazyme test kits for wine analysis are based on the traditional Boehringer Mannheim Methods of Analysis, but with improved reagent stability and more rapid reaction rates. However, Megazyme also provides a range of test kits with new biochemistry and for new analytes.
A Choice of Assay Formats
Megazyme test kits for wine analysis are available in a comprehensive range of assay formats S Spectrophotometer - manual format for use with a standard UV/Vis spectrophotometer S Microplate - automated or manual format for use with standard 96-well microplates S Auto-analyser - automated formats for use with any auto-analyser model

Extended Stability of Co-factors in Megazyme Test Kits


NAD(H) / NADP(H) co-factors have been formulated to provide extended stability in solution S S S Co-factor powders (as supplied) are stable for > 4 years when frozen Co-factor solutions (after dissolving) are stable for > 1 year when refrigerated No requirement to aliquot or freeze / thaw co-factor solutions

A Choice of Test Kit Formulation from Megazyme


S Traditional Kit Reagents > 2 year stability Co-factors stable in liquid form for > 1 year when stored at 4oC S Liquid Ready Reagents Ready to use No reagent preparation required > 1 year stability

Technical Support
S S Expert technical support is provided direct from Megazyme (the product manufacturer) Technical video tutorials are available from the Megazyme website and YouTube channel
