or disappearance of cofactors. NADPH absorbs ultraviolet light at a wavelength of 340nm‚ whereas NADP+ does not. This NADPH cofactor is released when glucose-6-phosphate reacts with NADP+ in the presence of an enzyme such as glucose-6phosphate dehydrogenase. This relationship between the concentration of this important cofactor and the concentration of sucrose and glucose ultimately
