Hydantoin, or glycolylurea, is a heterocyclic organic compound with the formula CH 2 C(O)NHC(O)NH.It is a colorless solid that arises from the reaction of glycolic acid and urea. It is an oxidized derivative of imidazolidine.In a more general sense, hydantoins can refer to a groups and a class of compounds with the same ring structure as the parent. For example, phenytoin (mentioned below) has two phenyl groups substituted onto the number 5 carbon in a hydantoin molecule.t is an oxidized derivative of imidazolidine.

The pH range of the mouth is 5.6-6.9 slightly acidic, and the average body temp is 37 deg C-this is the environment in which human amylase is most active.
An oral temperature (TEM-per-ah-chur) is when the mouth is used to take your temperature. A temperature measures body heat. A thermometer (ther-MOM-uh-ter) is used to take your temperature in your mouth. A person should be 5 years or older to have a temperature taken in the mouth.
