The diluted extract and standards are applied to the wells of a microtiter plate coated with \u003cem\u003eLactobacillus plantarum\u003c\/em\u003e. The growth of the bacteria is dependent on the vitamin content of the sample, or standard. \u003cem\u003eLactobacillus plantarum\u003c\/em\u003e belongs to the lactic acid bacteria, and has an absolute growth requirement for the niacin. Thus, this organism is ideal for quantification of niacin in food and dietary supplements. As a group, the lactic acid bacteria are good candidates for vitamin analysis due to their genetic stability (resistance to undergo mutation), simple metabolic requirements, ease of maintenance and general safety as a non-pathogenic organism.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBenefits:\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003eThe test system is very robust and well suited for routine analysis.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003eThe VitaFast® test kits feature uniform procedures across the product line.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"R-Biopharm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53657892880675,"sku":"RBIOP1004","price":769.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0597\/5896\/9012\/files\/P1004_24e7d587-01ae-4126-b63d-b387ae28fa6c.jpg?v=1779863372","url":"https:\/\/onelab.co.nz\/products\/vitafast%c2%ae-vitamin-b3-niacin-en","provider":"Onelab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
