Folin Ciocalteus Phenol Reagent Extra Pure is a high-grade chemical solution widely used in analytical chemistry and biochemistry for the colorimetric determination of phenolic and polyphenolic compounds. It functions by reacting with phenol groups to produce a blue complex, the intensity of which is directly proportional to the concentration of phenols present in the sample. This makes it an essential reagent in food science for measuring antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content in fruits, vegetables, beverages, and plant extracts. Its extra pure formulation ensures precision, reproducibility, and minimal background interference, making it ideal for research, quality control, and advanced laboratory applications.
Folin Ciocalteus Phenol Reagent Extra Pure
Primary Uses
- Determination of total phenolic content (TPC):
The reagent is widely used in colorimetric assays to quantify phenolic compounds in food, plant extracts, beverages, and pharmaceuticals by reacting with phenols to produce a blue complex measurable at 760–765 nm. - Antioxidant capacity analysis:
Commonly employed to estimate the total antioxidant capacity of natural substances, since many antioxidants are phenol-based.
Secondary Uses
- Biochemical analysis in plant and food research:
Helps evaluate nutritional quality, polyphenol content, and oxidative properties in fruits, vegetables, teas, wines, and herbal medicines. - Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical studies:
Used to analyze active ingredients in formulations containing polyphenols or flavonoids, aiding in formulation standardization. - Comparative testing in assay development:
Acts as a benchmark reagent in developing or validating alternative methods for phenolic quantification.
