Descriptor	dihidroxiacetona
Scope note:	Compuesto cetotriosa. Su adición a soluciones para la conservación de la sangre se sigue de una mejor permanencia de las concentraciones de 2,3-difosfoglicerato durante el almacenamiento. Se fosforila fácilmente a dihidroxiacetona fosfato mediante trioquinasa en los eritrocitos. En combinación con naftoquinonas actúa como filtro solar.
