General Description
Formaldehyde is the simplest aldehyde. It is widely employed in industry for wide range of applications. Formaldehyde is also used as a disinfectant and is a commonly utilized tissue fixative and embalming agent. Formaldehyde is naturally present in all tissues and body fluids. Recently it has been shown that some cancer types exhibit elevated formaldehyde levels. Increased formaldehyde concentration in urine has been associated with prostate and bladder cancer. Thus, measuring formaldehyde in urine can be a very useful tool when studying cancer. Formaldehyde Microplate Assay Kit provides a convenient tool for sensitive detection of Formaldehyde concentration in a variety of samples. The intensity of the product color, measured at 430 nm, is proportional to the Formaldehyde concentration in the sample.
