To accurately assess the mechanism of involvement of the active metabolite norcocaine in the effects of oral cocaine, it is essential to determine the rate and extent of the formation of norcocaine. Although this study was designed specifically for this

A quantitative analytical procedure for the determination of cocaine, benzoylecgonine and cocaethylene and norcocaine in hair has been developed and validated. The hair samples were washed, incubated, and any drugs present were quantified using mixed mode solid-phase extraction and liquid

Cocaine N-demethylation to norcocaine was studied in human liver microsomes of different ages. Norcocaine was formed at a considerable rate in fetal (45.4+/-18.2 nmol/mg x hour, n = 8) and adult specimens (82.0+/-46.6 nmol/mg x hour, n = 15), p

We have employed a high-sensitivity on-line preconcentration method, cation-selective exhaustive injection (CSEI) and sweeping MEKC, for the analysis of cocaine, benzoylecgonine, norcocaine, and cocaethylene. We monitored the effects of several of the CSEI-sweeping-MEKC parameters - including the pH, the concentrations

The first step in the oxidative metabolism of cocaine is N-demethylation to norcocaine, which is further N-hydroxylated to more toxic N-hydroxynorcocaine. In this study we examined the kinetics of norcocaine N-hydroxylation mediated by cytochrome P450 (CYP) in mouse and human
