Coumarin (1,2-benzopyrone) is a natural compound that has been used as a fragrance in the food and perfume industry and could have therapeutic usefulness in the treatment of lymphedema and different types of cancer. Several previous pharmacokinetic studies of coumarin
An improved HPLC method for the analysis of 7-ethoxycoumarin and its metabolites in liver-slice incubation media is presented. The assay is based on short-column gradient elution which permits baseline resolution of the parent drug and three metabolites with a fourfold
Blood concentration-time data of coumarin (C), 7-hydroxycoumarin (7-HC) and 7-hydroxycoumarin glucuronide (7-HCG) were obtained in rats receiving intraperitoneal doses of C ranging from 2.5 to 60 mg/kg and of 7-HC ranging from 2.5 to 20 mg/kg. Coumarin blood levels were

An assay utilizing CE, has been developed for studying the in vitro metabolism of 7-hydroxycoumarin to 7-hydroxycoumarin-glucuronide. A reaction mixture containing a crude preparation of bovine uridine diphosphate (UDP) glucuronyl transferase (UDPGT) and the substrates uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid (UDPGA)
