Gynecologic and obstetric investigation, 24(3), 200-207 (1987-01-01)
Metronidazole kinetics was studied in 5 healthy women after a single dose given intravenously, orally or vaginally, 500, 400 and 500 mg, respectively. Serum levels of the drug and of its hydroxy and acid metabolites were assessed. The results after

The susceptibilities of strains of Gardnerella vaginalis (Haemophilus vaginalis), Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Bacteroides fragilis to metronidazole and its principal oxidative metabolites (1-[2-hydroxyethyl]-2-hydroxymethyl-5-nitroimidazole) ("hydroxy" metabolite) and 1-acetic acid-2-methyl-5-nitroimidazole ("acid" metabolite), were compared by determinations of the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of
B Salvesen et al.
Scandinavian journal of gastroenterology. Supplement, 91, 31-43 (1984-01-01)
A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for the assay of metronidazole and its 2-hydroxymethyl metabolite in sera was compared with a microbiological method, an agar well diffusion technique with Clostridium perfringens as indicator strain. The HPLC technique involves separation of
R A Gibson et al.
Clinical chemistry, 30(5), 784-787 (1984-05-01)
Metronidazole and its known metabolites in plasma can be rapidly separated by a "high-pressure" liquid-chromatographic method that can also be adapted for rapid determination of tinidazole. Samples deproteinized with trichloroacetic acid (50 g/L final concentration) undergo isocratic separation on a
