General description

α-Hydroxymidazolam is an active, major metabolite in urine and blood of the benzodiazepine midazolam. Midazolam is sold as Dormicum, Hypnovel®, and Versed as a sedative and treatment for insomnia and seizures. This Certified Spiking Solution® is suitable as starting material for use in calibrators or controls for a variety of LC/MS or GC/MS applications from forensic analysis and clinical toxicology to urine drug testing.

Application


  • Pharmacodynamic studies: α-Hydroxymidazolam is utilized in pharmacodynamic research to compare the effects of midazolam and its metabolites on neuronal activity. The study provides insight into the depressant effects on the neocortical neuronal network, aiding in the understanding of benzodiazepine drug actions (Balk et al., 2017).

  • Metabolic pathway research: Research explores the use of α-Hydroxymidazolam in studying drug-drug interactions and metabolism in cytochrome P450 knockout mice. This application highlights its role in examining metabolic pathways and interactions that affect drug metabolism, crucial for drug development and therapy optimization (Grimsley et al., 2013).

A sensitive and selective gas chromatographic mass spectrometric method for the determination of midazolam and its biologically active metabolite, 1-hydroxymidazolam, in rabbit plasma has been developed and validated. Sample preparation includes mixed-mode solid-phase extraction and derivatization with silylating reagents. Midazolam-d4

Midazolam, a potent benzodiazepine derivative and a typical substrate of CYP3A4/3A5, is essentially metabolized in human into 1'-hydroxymidazolam, then eliminated as the corresponding phase II metabolite, the 1'-O-β-D-glucuronide derivative. A high yield alternative to the current multistep synthesis of 1'-hydroxymidazolam
