The colorimetric estimation of formaldehyde by means of the Hantzsch reaction. ''Biochemical Journal'', '''55'''(3), 416-421.</ref> detects the presence of formaldehyde. Two molecules of acetylacetone react with formaldehyde and ammonia to form the strong yellow and fluorescing diacetyl-dihydro lutidine which can be detected via absorption at a wavelength of 412 nm and via fluorescence at an excitation wavelength of 410 nm and an emission wavelength of 510 nm. |
