Description
Detection principle
Plant total phenol is a common secondary natural metabolite in plants. There are several kinds of phenolic compounds, such as hydroxybenzoic acid, hydroxy cinnamic acid, flavonoids, chalcone, flavonoids, lignin, coumarin and astragalus. Phenolic compounds are antioxidants that delay or prevent oxidation and oxygen radical reactions.

Dilution of sample
It is recommended to take 2~3 samples with expected large difference to do pre-experiment before formal experiment and dilute the sample according to the result of the pre-experiment and the detection range (1.05-148 μg/mL).
The recommended dilution factor for different samples is as follows (for reference only):

Epipremnum aureum tissue homogenate |
20-30 |
Daucus carota tissue homogenate |
5-15 |
Spinacia oleracea tissue homogenate |
15-25 |
Leek tissue homogenate |
10-20 |
Note: The diluent is 60% alcohol.
