The Role of Intestinal Bacteria in the Transformation of Sodium Picosulfate

1 Jan 1992

Abstract excerpt

Sodium picosulfate, a laxative, was biotransformed to 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl-(2 pyridyl)-methane by intestinal flora that produced a novel sulfotransferase (not sulfatase). The biotransformation was activated by adding phenolic compounds such as phenol, acetaminophen and flavonoids. The enzyme activity related to this biotransformation was the highest in the contents of the caecum region of the intestine. The...
