Abcam's Starch Assay Kit provides an easy, accurate assay to
measure starch levels in a variety of samples. In the assay, starch is
hydrolyzed to glucose which is oxidized to generate color (570 nm) and
fluorescence (Ex/Em = 535/587 nm). The assay can detect starch at 0.0004 to 2
mg/ml.

This product is manufactured by BioVision, an Abcam company
and was previously called K647 Starch Colorimetric/Fluorometric Assay Kit.
K647-100 is the same size as the 100 test size of ab83393.
Starch is a complex carbohydrate consisting of a large
number of glucose units. All plants contain starch, present as amylose, (linear
α-1,4 linked polymer) and amylopectin, (highly α-1,6 branched α-1,4 polymer).
Starch generally contains 0-25% amylose and 75-100% amylopectin.
