Enteroviruses (family Picornaviridae) comprise a large group of human pathogens against which no licensed antiviral therapy exists. Drug-repurposing screens uncovered the FDA-approved drug fluoxetine as a replication inhibitor of enterovirus B and D species. Fluoxetine likely targets the nonstructural viral

An electron-capture gas chromatographic procedure was developed for the analysis of p-trifluoromethylphenol, an O-dealkylated metabolite of fluoxetine, in biological samples. A basic extraction of the biological sample was employed, followed by derivatization with pentafluorobenzenesulfonyl chloride. The internal standard, 2,4-dichlorophenol, was
