Patent NZ-538038-A (NZ)
Title: Method of screening a metabolite of a parent candidate compound for susceptibility to billiary excretion
Inventor: LECLUYSE EDWARD
Filed: 2005-02-01
Abstract: Described is a process of screening a parent xenobiotic compound for susceptibility to biliary excretion in a process in which metabolic activity is induced. In this process amounts of the parent xenobiotic compound and a metabolite of the parent xenobiotic compound present in a lysate from each culture are measured and the amount of the parent xenobiotic compound in each culture lysate is used to determine susceptibility to biliary excretion. In this process it is not necessary to calculate a normalised amount of the compound present in a lysate and use this figure in a calculation of a biliary clearance value. Thus the process represents a modification or improvement over the process of NZ 513773. (61) Addition to 513773
