The Glucatell® assay kit is specific for (1→3)-β-D-glucan. The assay is based upon a modification of the Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) pathway. The Glucatell® reagent is processed to eliminate Factor C, and is therefore specific for (1→3)-β-D-glucan. The reagent does not react to other polysaccharides, including beta-glucans with different glycosidic linkages.

The Glucatell® kit is available as either an end-point or kinetic chromogenic assay for use in microplates. The kit contains the Glucatell® reagent, a (1→3)-β-D-glucan standard, buffer, diazo reagents (end-point kit only), glucan-free water, and glucan-free microplates.

Product Stability

Store all reagents at 2–8°C in the dark. Reconstituted Glucatell® reagent should be stored at 2–8°C and used within 2 hours. Alternatively, reconstituted Glucatell® reagent can be frozen at -20°C for 20 days, thawed once and used. The diazo-reagents should be used the day they are prepared.
