Acetone in urine by UV – FAST (code  Z42210) – 100 tests package

INSIGHTS
Acetone is a colorless, mobile, flammable liquid. It is readily soluble in water, ethanol, ether etc., and itself serves as an important solvent. Acetone is the strongest consumer-grade solvent available. It is ideal for thinning fibreglass resin, cleaning fibreglass tools and dissolving two-part epoxies and superglue before hardening. Acetone is an irritant and inhalation may lead to hepatotoxic effects (causing liver damage). The vapours should be avoided. In no circumstance should it be consumed directly or indirectly. Always use goggles when handling Acetone; it can cause permanent eye damage (corneal clouding). Small amounts of Acetone are metabolically produced in the body, mainly from fat. In Humans, fasting significantly increases its endogenous production (ketosis). Acetone can be elevated in diabetes. Accidental intake of large amounts of Acetone may lead to unconsciousness and death.

Principle of the  Method:

Acetone in the urinary sample is derivatized with a suitable reagent and incubated at 70 °C for 30 minutes. After elution, 50 μl are directly injected into HPLC system..
