A rapid gas-liquid chromatographic determination of antipyrine clearance in the rat. 1981

K M Knights, and G K Gourlay, and J F Adams, and M J Cousins

The assay procedure described in this paper allows the calculation of pharmacokinetic data of antipyrine disposition to be obtained from a single animal with minimal disturbance in hematocrit. A sample volume (100 microliters) allows the repeated use of the same rat for studies of hepatic drug metabolism. The lower limit of sensitivity is 5 micrograms/ml, with a range of linearity extending to 100 micrograms/ml. This allows for various dosing regimens. The GLC assay is rapid and accurate as shown by comparison with previously published values for the half-life of antipyrine in rats.

D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000983	Antipyrine	An analgesic and antipyretic that has been given by mouth and as ear drops. Antipyrine is often used in testing the effects of other drugs or diseases on drug-metabolizing enzymes in the liver. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p29)	Phenazone,Anodynin,Pyramidone
