A reverse-phase High Performance Liquid Chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the analysis of metoprolol in the large number of human plasma samples obtained in in vitro-in vivo correlations (IVIVC) and bioavailability studies of extended release formulations of metoprolol tartrate. The metabolite, alpha-hydroxy metoprolol (OH-met), could also be quantified. The analytes were extracted from the plasma using solid phase columns, separated on a C-4 analytical column followed by fluorimetric detection. The linearity, precision, accuracy, stability, selectivity and ruggedness were validated for the concentration ranges of 1-400 ng ml-1 for metoprolol and 0.5-200 ng ml-1 for OH-met. The same chromatographic conditions were slightly modified to quantify dextromethorphan and its metabolite dextrorphan in urine in the concentration range 0.052-0.05 microgram ml-1 as a method for screening for fast metabolizers.

D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.

D003915 Dextromethorphan Methyl analog of DEXTRORPHAN that shows high affinity binding to several regions of the brain, including the medullary cough center. This compound is an NMDA receptor antagonist (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE) and acts as a non-competitive channel blocker. It is one of the widely used ANTITUSSIVES, and is also used to study the involvement of glutamate receptors in neurotoxicity. d-Methorphan,Delsym,Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide,Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide, (+-)-Isomer,Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide, Monohydrate,Dextromethorphan Hydrochloride,Dextromethorphan, (+-)-Isomer,Racemethorphan,Hydrobromide, Dextromethorphan,Hydrochloride, Dextromethorphan
D003917 Dextrorphan Dextro form of levorphanol. It acts as a noncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonist, among other effects, and has been proposed as a neuroprotective agent. It is also a metabolite of DEXTROMETHORPHAN. (+-)-17-Methylmorphinan-3-ol
