Triglyceride Content Assay kit
TG is a fat molecule formed by long-chain fatty acids and glycerol. It is not only the main component of cell membrane, but also an important respiratory substrate.
Extract TG with isopropanol, saponify TG with KOH and hydrolyze to generate glycerol and fatty acids. Periodic acid oxidizes glycerol to generate formaldehyde. In the presence of chloride ions, formaldehyde and acetylacetone condense to form a yellow substance with a characteristic absorption peak at 420 nm , The depth of its color is directly proportional to the TG content.
