Abstract excerpt
Acetonitrile is an organic solvent commonly used to increase the solubility of lipophilic substrates for in vitro studies. In this study, we examined its effect on four reactions (diclofenac hydroxylation, tolbutamide methyl hydroxylation, phenytoin hydroxylation, and celecoxib methyl hydroxylation) catalyzed by human liver microsomes and by the recombinant CYP2C9. In both cases, the effect of acetonitrile on...
