CheKine™ Micro Saponin Content Assay Kit

Saponin is a kind of natural substance widely existing in plant seeds, stems, roots and other parts, and its aglycone is triterpenoids or spirostanes. Many Chinese herbal medicines, such as ginseng, polygala tenuifolia, platycodon grandiflorum, licorice, Anemarrhena asphodeloides and Bupleurum chinense, contain saponin, which has many biological activities and application values, such as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, hypolipidemic, hypoglycemic and antioxidant. CheKine™ Micro Saponin Content Assay Kit can detect biological samples such as plant tissue. In this kit, the total saponin in the sample were extracted by ultrasonic wave, and the color reaction between saponins and vanillin occurred under acidic conditions. The product had a characteristic absorption peak at 589 nm, and the content of total saponins could be quantitatively detected by the change of absorption value.
