Mục tiêu

Xác định nồng độ glucose bằng phương pháp đo màu axit dinitrosalixylic (DNS) và hiểu hóa học đường khử.

Bối cảnh

The DNS method is a classic colorimetric assay for reducing sugars. 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (yellow) is reduced by the free aldehyde group of glucose to 3-amino-5-nitrosalicylic acid (orange-red). The color change occurs upon heating, and the intensity at 540 nm is proportional to the reducing sugar concentration. This method is widely used in food science and fermentation monitoring.

Cảnh báo an toàn

  • DNS reagent contains NaOH — corrosive to skin
  • Boiling water bath — handle tubes with tongs
  • Cool tubes before opening to prevent splattering
  • DNS reagent stains skin yellow

Vật liệu

  • DNS reagent (100 mL)
    1% DNS in NaOH with sodium potassium tartrate
  • Glucose stock solution (100 mL)
    10 mg/mL in water
  • Unknown sugar solution (20 mL)
  • Distilled water (200 mL)

Thiết bị

Spectrophotometer or colorimeter Cuvettes Boiling water bath Test tubes (10) with caps Pipettes (1 mL, 5 mL) Ice bath Timer

Quy trình

1

Prepare glucose standards: 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 mg/mL by diluting the stock solution.

10 phút
2

Add 1 mL of each standard and the unknown to labeled test tubes. Add 1 mL of DNS reagent to each tube.

5 phút DNS contains NaOH
3

Place all tubes in a boiling water bath for exactly 5 minutes. The color changes from yellow to orange-red.

5 phút Use tongs for hot tubes
4

Transfer tubes immediately to an ice bath to stop the reaction. Cool for 2 minutes.

2 phút
5

Add 8 mL of distilled water to each tube and mix well.

5 phút
6

Measure absorbance at 540 nm. Zero with the blank (0 mg/mL glucose).

15 phút
7

Plot the calibration curve and determine the glucose concentration of the unknown.

18 phút

Kết quả dự kiến

A linear calibration curve from 1–10 mg/mL glucose. The color intensifies from pale yellow (blank) to deep orange-red (10 mg/mL). Non-reducing sugars like sucrose give no color change.

Dọn dẹp

Neutralize DNS waste with dilute HCl before disposal. Clean test tubes immediately as dried DNS residue is difficult to remove.
