General description

Carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide is the primary, active metabolite in both urine and serum of carbamazepine, an anticonvulsant drug used in the treatment of epilepsy and bipolar disorder as well as trigeminal neuralgia. Potential toxicity of the epoxide metabolite requires regular therapeutic drug monitoring by LC or LC/MS for patients taking carbamazepine.

Application


  • Advanced Analytical Techniques for Carbamazepine Epoxide: A study utilized covalent organic framework-based solid-phase microextraction coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry for sensitive screening and quantitative evaluation of carbamazepine and its metabolite, Carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide, in mice, advancing biochemical research reagents and methodologies (Huang et al., 2022).

  • Carbamazepine Metabolite Monitoring: Research developed an HPLC method for the determination of antiepileptic drugs including Carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide in human saliva, facilitating therapeutic drug monitoring and offering a non-invasive technique for patient compliance and drug metabolism studies (Carona et al., 2021).

  • Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Antiepileptic Drugs: A novel capillary microsampling device, Microsampling Wing (MSW), was evaluated for its effectiveness in handling antiepileptic drugs such as Carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide in rats, enhancing drug discovery processes by providing a minimally invasive sampling method for pharmacokinetic studies (Hotta et al., 2021).

Carbamazepine is metabolized to an active metabolite known as carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide, or simply the "epoxide" metabolite. The presence of this metabolite can have clinically significant implications in therapeutic drug monitoring of carbamazepine, but accurate quantification of the epoxide metabolite is currently

Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 25(3), 212-216 (2011-05-14)
Discordant carbamazepine values as determined by two different immunoassays may be due to different cross-reactivities with the active metabolite carbamazepine 10, 11-epoxide and may cause confusion in interpreting carbamazepine serum levels. In this study, we compared carbamazepine values in samples

Journal of separation science, 32(9), 1454-1458 (2009-03-31)
An instrumental planar chromatographic (HPTLC) method for quantification of carbamazepine in human serum was developed using liquid-liquid extraction with dichloromethane, fluorescence activation with perchloric acid 60%/ethanol/water (1:1:1, v/v) and fluorescence detection. Planar chromatographic separation was performed on precoated silica gel
