allantoin. [Élanâ²tÅÂ·in]. a chemical compound (5-ureidohydantoin), C 4 H 6 N 4 O 3, that occurs as a white crystallizable substance found in many plants and in the allantoic and amniotic fluids and fetal urine of primates. It is also present in the urine of mammals other than primates as a product of purine metabolism.llantoin.
