Extract

By thiocyanate compounds is meant a group of salts of thiocyanic acid (HCNS). Together with compounds of glycuronic and sulphuric acids, these salts are products of several detoxication processes. In the urine they are the end-products of the detoxication of substances formed during the breakdown of protein.
