Product Overview
Follin’s Ciocalteu’s Phenol Reagent is a specialized analytical solution designed for the quantitative determination of phenolic compounds in various samples. This reagent is widely recognized for its reliability and precision in laboratory settings. The reagent contains a mixture of phosphomolybdic and phosphotungstic acids, which react with phenols under alkaline conditions to produce a blue-colored complex that can be measured spectrophotometrically. This method is highly sensitive and allows for accurate detection of phenols even at low concentrations. The reagent is supplied in a ready-to-use liquid form, ensuring convenience and consistency in experimental procedures. It is compatible with standard laboratory protocols and can be used in conjunction with other analytical techniques for comprehensive sample analysis. The high-grade formulation ensures minimal interference and maximum accuracy, making it an essential tool for researchers and analysts working with phenolic compounds.
