Description

Dimethylolurea is a formaldehyde releaser that has clinical relevance as a nutrient solution. Dimethylolurea has been shown to release formaldehyde, which may be used to treat bowel diseases and inflammatory bowel disease. Dimethylolurea can also induce an immune response in the human body. This chemical is not soluble in water but it is soluble in ethanol and methanol, which are often used as solvents for this drug. The reaction mechanism of dimethylurea is unclear. It may be due to intramolecular hydrogen transfer or metal hydroxides. As with other drugs, the surface methodology of dimethylurea depends on the size of the microcapsules.
