Isolated hepatocyte suspensions from rat, rabbit, dog, squirrel monkey and human livers were used to study the metabolism of amphetamine (AMP), a drug for which species-dependent differences in metabolism have been demonstrated in vivo. Hepatocytes were isolated by perfusion of

The presence of different hydrophilic organic solvents or a water soluble polymer such as PEG 4000 led to an enhancement in the enzymatic activity of the M446G mutant of phenylacetone monooxygenase when it is employed in enantioselective sulfoxidations and Baeyer-Villiger

Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) represent a group of enzymes of considerable biotechnological relevance as illustrated by their growing use as biocatalyst in a variety of synthetic applications. However, due to their increased use the reproducible expression of BVMOs and other biotechnologically

The isotope ratios of amphetamine type stimulants (ATS) depend as well on the precursor as the synthetic pathway. For clandestine production of amphetamine and methamphetamine, 1-phenyl-2-propanone (P2P, benzylmethylketone) is a commonly used precursor. Our aim was to determine the variation
