Abstract excerpt
Dextromethorphan is a probe substrate to determine CYP2D6 phenotype. The conversion of dextromethorphan to dextrorphan by CYP2D6 accounts for approximately 60% of total metabolism. Most analytical methods utilize complicated labor- and time-intensive sample processing methods with several liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) steps. Our goal was to develop a non-LLE based rapid and sensitive HPLC method, to measure...
