Phenytoin ELISA kits are designed for the specific detection of phenytoin in biological samples. Phenytoin is a compound that is metabolized in humans. It has the chemical formula C15H12N2O2. Phenytoin, an anticonvulsant with applications in various seizures, also serves as an anti-arrhythmic and muscle relaxant. Its therapeutic mechanism is not fully understood, but involves ion channels, active transport, and membrane stabilization, with its muscle relaxant effect linked to reduced sensitivity of muscle spindles to stretch.
