The oral administration of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is often associated with upper gastrointestinal tract side effects. To reduce these effects and improve the therapeutic efficacy, NSAIDs are often formulated as controlled release systems. We have prepared a new formulation

Previous studies have demonstrated that Verticillium lecanii might be used as a microbial model of the inversion of 2-arylpropionic acids in man. This paper describes the optimization of the inversion process in respect of culture medium, pH, cell density and

Two alternative metabolic pathways, acyl glucuronidation and acyl-CoA formation, are implicated in the generation of reactive acylating metabolites of carboxylic acids. Here, we describe studies that determine the relative importance of these two pathways in the metabolic activation of a

High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and high speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) were applied and compared in enantioseparation of 2-phenylpropionic acid (2-PPA) when hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) was used as chiral mobile phase additive. For HPLC, the enantioseparation was achieved on ODS C(18)

The significance of disturbances of lipid metabolism caused by xenobiotic acyl-CoAs as possible causes of peroxisomal proliferation has been studied with the enantiomers of 2-phenylpropionic acid (2-PPA), the (R)-enantiomer of which is converted to the acyl-CoA in rats while its
