Seliwanoff's test is primarily used to distinguish between aldose and ketose sugars based on their reactivity with resorcinol under acidic conditions. Insulin itself does not directly affect the outcome of this test, as it is not a sugar but a peptide hormone. However, insulin's role in glucose metabolism could influence blood sugar levels, indirectly affecting the concentration of sugars that may be tested using the Seliwanoff's method. Overall, insulin's effect on carbohydrate metabolism would not change the fundamental characteristics of the sugars tested by this method.
What else can I help you with?
What effect would injecting insulin have on the results of the test?
The insulin would regulate the blood glucose level and this will give the correct reading.

What is the aim of using HCL in seliwanoffs test?
In Seliwanoff's test, the aim of using concentrated hydrochloric acid (HCL) is to provide a mildly acidic environment that helps to catalyze the reaction between the sugar being tested and the reagent (resorcinol). This reaction results in the formation of a colored compound that indicates the presence of ketoses, distinguishing them from aldoses.
What is meant by the term contraindication or contraindicated?
Contraindicated means "not recommended" or "not indicated. "Contra" means "not". Often, with prescribing medications especially, certain drugs should not be prescribed together. Or, certain nursing actions would be contraindicated in certain situations. For example, a hospitalized patient is to receive insulin before breakfast. A nursing task is to test the blood sugar (or have the patient do the test) before administering insulin. If a blood sugar today was too low, the insulin would be contrindicated based on the low blood sugar. So the insulin is withheld, the doctor notified, and the BS is re-tested later in the day. If it was higher then, enough to require insulin, a new order would be needed with an exact dose to "cover" the new rise in blood sugar.
