  • Title: Multiple inverse isotope dilution assay for oxprenolol and nine metabolites in biological fluids.
    Author: Dieterle W, Faigle JW.
    Journal: J Chromatogr; 1983 Apr 01; 259(2):301-10. PubMed ID: 6343407.
    Abstract:
    An isotope dilution assay for the specific determination of 14C-labelled oxprenolol and nine of its metabolites in the same biological sample is described. After addition of unlabelled carriers to the sample, oxprenolol and the metabolites were isolated by base- and acid-specific extraction and separated by normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography using two different mobile phases. Quantitation of the various peaks was performed by on-line ultraviolet detection at 275 nm and off-line radiometry by liquid scintillation counting. Endogenous compounds and unknown metabolites did not interfere in the assay. The analysis of rat and dog blood, plasma and urine samples spiked with [14C]oxprenolol hydrochloride, showed mean recoveries between 98.7 and 99.8%. The assay was used to investigate the metabolic fate of [14C]oxprenolol in the dog. Analyses of blood and urine demonstrated the quantitative significance of the various metabolites in the biotransformation of oxprenolol.
