Urea and diacetyl heated condensation in the acidic reaction environment into pigmentogen diazine compound, the depth of color is proportional to the content of urea, because of the instability of diacetyl, so usually in the reaction system by diacetyl monoxime and strong acid action, diacetyl, and then reaction with urea, condensation into red diazine compound.
Applications
Suitable for the detection of urea content in serum (plasma), saliva and urine.
Procedure
1. Prepare standard samples and experimental samples. 2. Add reaction reagents in order for reaction. 3. Measure the absorbance of each tube. 4. Make the mark curve and calculate the result.
