The cytotoxicity of oxaziridines photogenerated after irradiation of chlordiazepoxide (CDZ) and its metabolites was investigated in vitro by a MTT assay on P388 leukemia and B16 melanoma cell lines and compared with that of the anticancer drug, melphalan. For the

Rapid difference spectrophotometric methods for chlordiazepoxide and demoxepam in chlordiazepoxide formulations are described which overcome the nonspecificity of the official spectrophotometric assays. The procedures are based on the measurement of the difference absorbance at 269 nm of equimolar solutions of

Upon irradiation with short-wavelength UV light the tranquillizer demoxepam is converted into a highly fluorescent product. This reaction serves as a sensitive and selective means of detection of low levels of demoxepam in e.g., serum after separation by means of
In chronic studies, the classical benzodiazepine chlordiazepoxide (CDP) is often the preferred drug because, unlike other benzodiazepines, it is soluble in water. However, rapid CDP hydrolysis in solution has been described. This would diminish plasma levels in chronic minipump studies
