acidic tissue

1-Aminohydantoin hydrochloride is a significant metabolite of furantoin in animal tissues. It binds covalently to tissue proteins, is released under slightly acidic conditions, and can be detected by derivatization with 2-nitrobenzaldehyde forming a nitrophenyl derivative of AHD. It is used in assays to determine veterinary drug residues in meat and milk.
