| FORMALDEHYDE (methanal) is widely employed in industry. 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. |
| Amiscience's Formaldehyde Assay Kit provides a convenient fluorimetric means to measure |
| formaldehyde. In the assay, formaldehyde is derivatized with acetoacetanilide in the presence |
| of ammonia. The resulting fluorescent product is then quantified using FluoroQuik handheld |
| fluorometer (ex/em =360nm/460nm). |
| Specifications : |
| Sample: Formaldehyde extracted from biological, food, and environmental samples. |
| Assay Performance: |
| ▪ Sufficient for about 100 tests. |
| ▪ Linear Detection Range: 0 to 100 µM (0 - 3,000 ppb). |
| ▪ Detection Limit: 0.9 µM (27 ppb). |
| ▪ Typical Precision (CV%): <4% at 100 µM; <4% at 30 µM. |
