[ Product Description ]
Magnesium is one of the most abundant minerals in the living cells, and plays important roles in many metabolic reactions
such as polyphosphoric acid formation and photosynthesis in the chlorophyll.
[ Assay principle ]
Under alkaline condition, Xyridyl Blue-I(XB-I) - magnesium complex shows absorbance at 520 nm, and on the other hand,
the absorbance by free XB-I at 600-680nm decreases.
[ Performance ]

| [ Specifications ] |
| Assay principle: |
XB-I method (Colorimetric assay at 520-660 vs 700 nm)
Measuring wavelength: 660nm (reference 700 nm) is recommended.
Measuring at 520 nm vs 700 nm shows higher sensitivity but may be susceptible to various factors. |
