Abstract

Abstract A urea assay or analysis process and reagents therefor, in which the assay involves a reaction between a sample of biological fluid and an acidic reagent solution of o-phthaldehyde and a chromogenic compound; the chromogenic compounds include certain substituted benzene compounds, certain substituted naphthalene compounds, certain aminopyrimidines, certain substituted quinolines, certain morpholino substituted quinolines and certain morpholino substituted naphthalenes.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 77 words
A process for the quantitation of urea in a fluid sample, in which the sample is reacted with a reagent containing an acidic solution of o-phthalaldehyde and an acidic solution of a chromogenic compound of the general class consisting of 1, or 1,3-mono- or di-substituted hydroxy or methoxy naphthalene compounds which have the following general formula: ##STR7## where R 1 = --H, or --CH 3 and where R 2 = --H, or --OH, or --OCH 3 .
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 77 words
A process for the quantitation of urea in a fluid sample, in which the sample is reacted with a reagent containing an acidic solution of o-phthalaldehyde and an acidic solution of a chromogenic compound of the general class consisting of 1, or 1,3-mono- or di-substituted hydroxy or methoxy naphthalene compounds which have the following general formula: ##STR7## where R 1 = --H, or --CH 3 and where R 2 = --H, or --OH, or --OCH 3 .
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words
The process as defined in claim 1, in which the chromogenic compound used is 1,3-dihydroxynaphthalene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 15 words
The process as defined in claim 1, in which the chromogenic compound used is 1-hydroxynaphthalene.
