Hello!
In the aim of linking the result of a non destructive chlorophylle and flavonoids estimator (Dualex) to the chemical concentrations of different species' leaves, we would measure pigments concentration spectrophotometrically.
We have developped a protocol of methanol extraction, based on litterature. However, we will use a spectrophotometer with plates with different properties than the cuvette used in studies providing equations linking absorbance and concentration.
Which commercial products should we choose to calibrate the parameters of those equations? We want to obtain a measure of total chlorophyll content and a proxy of flavonoids concentration.
Thank you!
