title: Dichlorobenzoquinone chloroimine colorimetry of uric acid in urine.
abstract: In this nonenzymatic colorimetric method, dichlorobenzoquinone chloroimine is used as a color reagent to measure uric acid in urine. This method is less subject to the interferences that make enzymatic methods unreliable and is inexpensive, simple, and fast.
