HIDE SMILES / InChI
Meconin is a lactone of meconinic acid, extracted from opium. Meconin is a contaminating constituent from poppy that is present in heroin. Therefore, like Monoacetylmorphine - a metabolite of heroin, the presence of Meconin indicates the use of heroin and when found in umbilical cord tissue indicates fetal exposure to heroin. The use of meconin as a useful adjunct in detecting illicit opiate use is recommended.
