[Fluorometric determination of "activated" cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide in blood (author's transl)]. 1979

G Voelcker, and R Haeglsperger, and H J Hohorst

"Activated" N-(2-Chloroethyl)amido-oxazaphosphorines like 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide, 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide, 4-hydroxyifosfamide, and 4-hydroperoxyifosfamide can be determined fluorometrically by condensation of liberated acrolein with m-aminophenol yielding 7-hydroxychinolin. The method permits determination of 10(-10) mol and is specific for "activated" N-(2-Chloroethyl)amido-oxazaphosphorine metabolites which liberate acrolein under conditions of the test. Neither cyclophosphamide nor ifosfamide or other metabolites of this cytostatics interfere with the test. Blood levels of free 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide and 4-hydroxyifosfamide were determined after injection of cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide into mice.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007069	Ifosfamide	Positional isomer of CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE which is active as an alkylating agent and an immunosuppressive agent.	Isofosfamide,Isophosphamide,Asta Z 4942,Holoxan,Iphosphamide,Iso-Endoxan,NSC-109,724,NSC-109724,Iso Endoxan,NSC 109,724,NSC 109724,NSC109,724,NSC109724
D003520	Cyclophosphamide	Precursor of an alkylating nitrogen mustard antineoplastic and immunosuppressive agent that must be activated in the LIVER to form the active aldophosphamide. It has been used in the treatment of LYMPHOMA and LEUKEMIA. Its side effect, ALOPECIA, has been used for defleecing sheep. Cyclophosphamide may also cause sterility, birth defects, mutations, and cancer.
