Abstract excerpt
To establish the usefulness of fluorescence detection to quantify urinary concentrations of dextromethorphan and dextrorphan for oxidation phenotyping, we determined the molar concentration ratio of dextromethorphan to dextrorphan in 38 subjects by UV and fluorescence detection. Dextromethorphan and dextrorphan concentrations were quantified after overnight hydrolysis of urine samples and organic solvent...
