    Notes: Summary Tolmesoxide is a new, direct-acting vasodilator drug for use in the management of both hypertension and cardiac failure. In 6 essential hypertensives inadequately controlled by combined β-blocker and diuretic therapy (average supine blood pressure 178/103 mm Hg) the addition of tolmesoxide (300–900 mg daily) was associated with a significant improvement in blood pressure control (average supine blood pressure 161/89 mmHg). The effect of food on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of tolmesoxide have also been studied because, particularly at higher doses, the drug has been associated with upper gastrointestinal upset and it has been empirically recommended that it be taken with food. The blood pressure and heart rate responses were not significantly different when tolmesoxide was taken fasting or with food. Food resulted in a significant reduction in the peak plasma tolmesoxide concentration (2.14 µg/ml compared to 2.97 µg/ml) and a significant increase in the time to reach peak plasma concentration (1.67 h compared to 0.63 h). Although there was no impairment of its hypotensive effect, food significantly altered the pharmacokinetics of tolmesoxide and may therefore be useful in reducing the gastrointestinal disturbance associated with its use. In the treatment of inadequately controlled hypertension, tolmesoxide has a limited role as an alternative vasodilator.

    Notes: Summary The kinetics of piretanide was studied in patients with renal failure. After oral administration of a high dose of piretanide (96 mg), the pharmacokinetic parameters were: elimination rate constant 0.346±0.072 h−1, half life 2.00±0.35 h, and total plasma clearance 119.55±35.90 ml · min−1. Compared to the values obtained in adults with normal renal function, these results show a decrease in total plasma clearance, but conservation of the metabolic clearance which amounts to 45% of the total clearance in the healthy adult.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary The systemic availability of ergotamine after a single therapeutic oral or rectal dose was studied using a radioimmunoassay during the headachefree state in 24 patients suffering from migraine. Plasma concentrations of the drug were compared with anamnestic data about its clinical effects in the same patients. Among 12 patients with a good therapeutic response to medication, the mean plasma ergotamine levels stayed in the range 0.20 to 0.50 ng/ml for 6h. Their mean plasma levels at 30 min (0.33ng/ml) and 1h (0.40ng/ml) were significantly higher than those (0.06 and 0.08ng/ml, respectively) in 9 patients with only a moderate therapeutic response. In 9 patients with a moderate and 3 with a poor therapeutic response, the mean plasma level generally stayed below 0.10ng/ml. The mean peak concentrations in moderate (0.13 ng/ml) and poor (0.11ng/ml) responders appeared later (at 3h) than in good responders (at 1h). Side effects of the medication appeared to be associated with relatively low plasma levels of ergotamine and also with delayed maximum plasma concentrations of the drug. The present results suggest that the time of the maximum plasma drug level is an important determinant of the clinical effects of ergotamine, and that a good therapeutic response may be expected if a plasma ergotamine level of 0.20ng/ml or more is achieved within 1 hour after oral or rectal administration.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Plasma concentrations of orphenadrine were measured by a specific gaschromatographic method in 5 healthy male volunteers after a single oral dose of orphenadrine hydrochloride 100mg. The single dose pharmacokinetic profile of orphenadrine was evaluated from these data. The elimination half-life ranged from 13.2–20.1 h after the commercial tablet formulation. Plasma concentrations, determined in volunteers and patients under different conditions of repeated oral administration of the same formulation of orphenadrine hydrochloride exceeded the theoretical values, predicted from the single dose pharmacokinetics, by a factor 2 to 3. The elimination half-lives after discontinuation of treatment showed a 2 to 3-fold increase over the single dose values. This demonstrates a clear discrepancy between the multiple and single dose pharmacokinetics of orphenadrine. Experiments in dogs suggested competition for biotransformation between orphenadrine and its metabolite N-demethylorphenadrine. Product inhibition of this type could explain the observed discrepancy.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic characteristics of amoxycillin were studied in healthy volunteers after intravenous injection of 250 mg, 500 mg and 1,000 mg, and infusion of 2 g and 5 g. Serum concentrations were fitted using either bi- and tri- exponentional equations. Comparison of the regression curves obtained revealed that the three-compartment model gave a better fit to the serum concentration versus time curve. It was evident that there was a third, slow, dose dependent phase of disposition. This result has been confirmed by the fact that the terminal half life of amoxycillin on cessation of a continuous infusion is significantly greater than after acute administration.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Two formulations of indapamide tablets (2.5 mg) were given as a 5.0 mg dose and the subsequent blood levels were compared to those obtained after administration of a 5.0 mg solution. The study was conducted as a randomized three-way crossover design using healthy male volunteers. The drug was well tolerated by all the subjects involved. The area under the blood concentration versus time curve, extrapolated to infinity was essentially the same for all three formulations (4.2, 4.7, and 4.4 µg-h/ml). Statistical comparison of the blood levels from the two tablets showed that one tablet had a significantly greater maximum blood concentration (263 vs 231 ng/ml) and a significantly shorter time of maximum blood concentration (2.3 vs 3.5 h). Cmax (333 ng/ml) and tmax (0.7 h) values for the solution were significantly higher than either tablet. The average half-life (β-phase) for all three formulations was 15 h, while the average systemic clearance was 20 ml/min. Indapamide has a low clearance rate and there was no evidence that the drug undergoes a first-pass effect.

    Pharmacokinetics of TRIS (hydroxymethyl-)aminomethane in healthy subjects and in patients with metabolic acidosis (1982)

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary To investigate the pharmacokinetics of TRIS, an infusion of the buffer was given to 6 healthy volunteers (121 mg/kg=1 mmol/kg; pH 7.4) and to 20 patients suffering from metabolic acidosis (109–376 mg/kg; pH 10.9). The drug exhibited two-compartment characteristics in volunteers (t0.5,β=5.6 h) and patients with intact renal function (t0.5,β=16.3–45.6 h). The final volume of distribution (Vβ) indicated uptake into tissues, but equilibration between body compartments was slow. Mainly unchanged TRIS was eliminated by the kidney; 82% of the administered dose was recovered from 24 h-urine of healthy subjects. In the patients a linear correlation between creatinine-clearance and TRIS-clearance was observed, the latter always being somewhat greater than the former. Only insignificant amounts of the drug were found in bile and gastric juice. In anuric patients the plasma concentration of TRIS declined monoexponentially, with a half-life between 10 and 58 h. Haemodialysis or haemofiltration did not influence this process. From the data it seems questionable whether cellular uptake of TRIS is an important factor in the therapy of intracellular acidosis, but the possibility of drug accumulation must be borne in mind if repeated doses are given to the same patient.

    Notes: Summary The influence of food on the kinetics of 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) in serum and suction blister fluid was evaluated in a cross-over study in 19 psoriatic patients under PUVA treatment. The peak serum concentration of 8-MOP was reached 1.5 h after ingestion on an empty stomach, and in suction blister fluid the maximum concentration was already present in the first sample taken after 2 h, the time when UVA radiation was given. The postprandial kinetics of 8-MOP in serum and suction blister fluid differed, the highest levels being reached, respectively, at 2.4 and 3 h after intake, i.e. in both body fluids after irradiation had started. The side effects of 8-MOP, such as nausea and dizziness, in the two groups were similar. The present results indicate that to optimize the therapeutic effect of PUVA in individual patients, 8-MOP should be given on an empty stomach.

    Notes: Summary Repeated doses of a new β-adrenoceptor blocking agent, befunolol, were administered orally to adult male volunteers for a cross-over comparison with propranolol. The β-adrenoceptor blocking activity of befunolol was greater than that of propranolol when assessed by the percentage reduction in exercise-induced tachycardia. The elimination half-life of drug was significantly prolonged on repeated administration of propranolol, but not of befunolol. The percentage reduction in exercise-induced tachycardia was highly correlated with the log plasma level of each drug. Both drugs produced a significant reduction in pre-exercise systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and significant attenuation of exercise-induced rise in systolic blood pressure.

    Notes: Summary The kinetics of ergotamine has been investigated in migrainous patients using a new, specific, sensitive HPLC assay (detection limit 100 pg/ml plasma). 10 patients were given ergotamine tartrate 0.5 mg i.v. and 5 of them received the same dose i.m. 2–3 weeks later. Blood samples were collected for up to 54 h following administration and the plasma concentration were analysed. After intravenous administration the plasma ergotamine declined rapidly, with an initial distribution half-life of 3 min followed by a mean terminal half-life of 1.86 h (range 90–155 min). The mean total plasma clearance was 11.0 ml kg−1 min−1, and the volume of distribution (Vdβ ) was 1847.6 ml kg−1. Individual t1/2β showed a positive linear correlation with the individual Vdβ . The intramuscular absorption of ergotamine was rapid and maximum plasma levels were usually obtained 10 min following administration. The biological availability was incomplete and variable at 46.6% (range 28.3–60.8%).

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of bendroflumethiazide (BFT) was investigated following the oral administration of 10 mg to 3 healthy volunteers. Each subject participated twice in the study. BFT was determined in plasma and cantharides blister fluid from 1/2 to 30 h post administration. Blister fluid was obtained from blisters 10–22 h old. Plasma levels were fitted to a tri-exponential equation and the concentration of the drug in the peripheral compartment was calculated from the microscopic rate constants. In 5 of 6 cases investigated, cantharides blister fluid levels paralleled the concentration of the drug in the peripheral compartment. The mean blister fluid levels exceeded the calculated concentration in Compartment 2 1.46 fold. In one case, the blister fluid level paralleled the plasma level. This subject clearly differed from the others as more than 10 h were required for blister formation in her. The results suggest that following the administration of BFT, cantharides blister fluid behaves as part of the peripheral compartment. The possible value of studying blister fluid levels in pharmacokinetic investigations is discussed.

    The influence of free fatty acids on valproic acid plasma protein binding during fasting in normal humans (1982)

    Notes: Summary The effect of physiologic variations of free fatty acid levels on in vivo valproic acid plasma protein binding was studied in 6 healthy adult subjects. 14 blood samples were taken during a 12-h dosing interval at steady state while in a fed condition and also during a 27 h fast. Free fraction and total valproate concentration were determined by equilibrium dialysis and GLC, respectively. Free fatty acid levels were determined from both fresh samples and samples incubated at 37°C for 12 h, the latter in order to simulate equilibrium dialysis conditions. Fasting resulted in increased serum free fatty acid levels in all subjects, ranging from 34–182% (p〈0.01). Incubation also caused free fatty acid levels to rise, more so in fed samples (50–87%,p〈0.01) than in fasting samples (10–50%,p〈0.01). Fasting resulted in a 9% increase in the mean free fraction for all subjects combined (p〈0.01). Regression analysis of 180 sets of values for free fraction, total valproate concentration and free fatty acid level suggested that valproate concentration accounts for 17% and free fatty acid level for 37% of the variation in free fraction. Mean clearance was unchanged by fasting despite an increased free fraction suggesting decreased intrinsic clearance (i.e. decreased metabolism) of valproate under these conditions.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of oralL-threo-3,4-dihydroxyphenylserine (L-threo-DOPS) was studied in 7 normal subjects and 7 patients with familial amyloid polyneuropathy. Each person swallowed a single 300 mg dose in the fasting state, andL-threo-DOPS in plasma and urine was determined by high performance liquid chromatography with an electrochemical detector after separation on a boric acid gel column.L-threo-DOPS was slowly absorbed by normal subjects; the maximum plasma concentration occurred 3 h after administration and 20% of the oral dose was recovered unchanged in the urine within 12 h. It induced a substantial elevation of plasma norepinephrine levels, the peak being attained at 5 h, but without any change in blood pressure. In the patients, the absorption and metabolism ofL-threo-DOPS were delayed, and a prolonged pressor response was observed, with a peak after 8 h. It was concluded that the effects on plasma norepinephrine and blood pressure of oralL-threo-DOPS were essentially equal to those of twice as large a dose ofDl-threo-DOPS.

    Notes: Summary Using a recently developed computer program based on a correlation between methods to predict the elimination half-life and apparent volume of distribution of cimetidine and actual data from patients, ideal dosage regimens were generated for patients with renal impairment and for geriatric patients, together with the corresponding maximum and minimum steady state concentrations. Using the ideal dosage regimens, practical regimens with feasible dosing intervals of 6, 8 and 12 h were computed, which should result in therapeutic concentrations of 0.4 to 1.3 µg/ml. For uraemic patients and geriatric patients above the age of 75 years it would be desirable to have an additional oral 100 mg dosage form.

    Notes: Summary Twenty-nine cases of self-poisoning with antidepressants (amitriptyline, imipramine, clomipramine, maprotiline, doxepine, nortriptyline, opipramol) were examined by frequent observation of CNS effects, heart rate, blood pressure and standard ECG, 24 h-ECG-monitoring, measurement of systolic time intervals, EEG recordings and frequent measurement of serum levels of antidepressants and primary metabolites. None of the patients died. Maximum total serum antidepressant level (parent compound + desmethyl metabolite) ranged from 20 to 2200 µg/l, with concentrations above 500 µg/l in 11 cases. The serum amitriptyline concentration remained high for 3–4 days in some of the severely intoxicated patients and the decay curves were compatible with partly saturated elimination. A degree of unconsciousness and the occurrence of excitation and hallucinations were generally seen in cases with total serum antidepressant levels above 500 µg/l. Grand mal seizures occurred more frequently at high antidepressant levels, but could not be predicted from the EEG recordings. Increased heart rate and prolonged QRS- and QTc-intervals were significantly correlated with the total serum antidpressant level. 24 h-ECG-monitoring revealed no serious arrhythmias or instances of heart block. Hypotension was only seen initially in few patients. Systolic time interval measurements showed changes suggesting impaired myocardial performance (elevated PEP/LVET ratio) at intermediate (60–500 µg/l) but not high (〉500 µg/l) total serum antidepressant levels. Measurement of serum concentration in antidepressant intoxication is important for identification of patients with high serum levels and the corresponding risk of developing toxic reactions, and to exclude patients with a low concentration who do not require intensive observation.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of clonidine and its relation to blood pressure response and side effects were studied after single oral doses of 75 µg, 150 µg and 250 µg in normotensive subjects. Following oral administration, the drug was absorbed rapidly after an initial lag time of 19–22 min and peak levels were reached between 2.4 and 2.9 h. Sampling over 48 h was necessary for accurate estimation of pharmacokinetic parameters. Post-peak plasma concentration declined in a monoexponential manner and the half-life of the elimination phase ranged from 9.0 to 15.1 h. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under curve (AUC) increased proportionally with increasing doses. Clonidine produced significant reductions in the pulse rate and a dose dependent decrease in blood pressure. Clonidine (150 µg) also produced significant reductions in plasma catecholamine levels.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic parameters of deacetyl metipranolol were determined after i.v. infusion of increasing doses (6–25 mg) in 17 normal volunteers. In a second cross-over trial, deacetyl metipranolol 10 and 20 mg were infused in a further 10 subjects, and in a third trial another 20 volunteers received metipranolol 40 mg orally. Metipranolol is very rapidly and completely deacetylated in man, so all pharmacokinetic data refer to deacetyl metipranolol, which was assayed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using a recently developed model, using a volume of distribution which is variable with time. The following data were obtained after oral administration: (mean values); lag-time 7.3 min; tmax 50 min, invasion half-life 6.3 min; elimination half-life 3 h; urinary excretion of unchanged drug approximately 4% of the dose. The experiments with infusion of increasing doses, as well as the cross-over study with 10 and 20 mg i.v., showed dose-linearity of the kinetics. The respective mean half-lives of elimination were 2.6, 2.9 and 2.8 h. The mean total, renal and extra-renal clearances amounted to 1237 ml/min, 149 ml/min and 1068 ml/min, respectively. The distribution coefficient was 3.5 l/kg, and protein binding amounted to 70% within the range of therapeutic concentrations. Absolute bioavailability was found to be approximately 50% by several different evaluation procedures. Thus, the pharmacokinetic profile of metipranolol shares features of both the lipophilic and the hydrophilic groups of β-blocking agents.

    Notes: Summary Bendroflumethiazide (Bft) was administered to 6 healthy subjects at 3 different dose levels (2.5, 5 and 10 mg) in a cross-over design, either as capsules (2.5 mg) or as tablets (5 mg). Its pharmacokinetics were evaluated then and following administration of a fixed combination of Bft with propranolol and hydralazine to a further 7 volunteers. Plasma and urinary concentrations of Bft were determined by a new fluorimetric — thin-layer chromotography procedure. Peak plasma levels occurred after 2–3 h and averaged 15, 27 and 45 µg/l in the three dose groups. Areas under the plasma concentration — time curves (AUC0→12), which were 75, 147 and 250 µg l−1 h respectively, and cumulative urinary recovery (20%) were independent of the dose administered and the type of formulation. Thus Bft kinetics proved to be linear within the dose range evaluated. The plasma clearance was calculated to be 505 ml/min, renal clearance 108 ml/min and nonrenal clearance 396 ml/min. Bioavailability of Bft was not altered following administration of the fixed combination. The amount of propranolol found in the circulation did not change, whereas that of hydralazine (determined as apparent hydralazine) increased by 59% when the fixed combination was administered.

    Notes: Summary The concentrations of lormetazepam and its glucuronide in plasma and milk were determined during administration of 10 daily doses of lormetazepam 2 mg (2 tablets of NOCTAMID® - 1) to five mothers delivered by Caesarian section. Their babies were breast-fed throughout the study, and the plasma levels of lormetazepam and its glucuronide were determined three times in the babies. At 12 and 24h after administration, the plasma level of lormetazepam was about 3.5 ng/ml and 1.8 ng/ml in mothers, and below 0.09 ng/ml in the children. In milk the lormetazepam concentration was below 0.2 ng/ml. The plasma level of glucuronide varied between 24 ng/ml at 12h and 11 ng/ml 24h after administration. Almost no accumulation of unchanged lormetazepam was observed (factor: 1.3). The ratio of the levels of lormetazepam in milk and plasma was estimated to be below 0.06, and for the glucuronide the ratio was 0.04. The quantity of free and conjugated active ingredient transferred to the children via breast milk was calculated to be at most 100 ng/kg, corresponding to 0.35% of the maternal dose, which is regarded as tolerable.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Increased metabolism of pindolol in renal impairment has previously been suggested by pharmacokinetic calculations. The present study was a pharmacokinetic and metabolic investigation in 7 patients with severe renal impairment (endogeneous creatinine clearance below 5 ml/min). All the patients received pindolol 5 mg t.d.s. 5 days. On the sixth day, after an overnight fast, 14C-pindolol 5 mg was given orally as a solution to drink. Blood samples were taken for up to 72 h and urine was collected at intervals up to 96 h for measurement of unchanged pindolol by a fluorimetric method and total radioactivity by liquid scintillation counting. Metabolites in blood and urine were analysed after separation by HPLC. It was found that the plasma levels following a single dose of 14C-pindolol were similar to those observed in healthy volunteers, but the elimination half-life was slightly increased up to 11.5 h. The observed steady state plasma concentrations of pindolol were twice as high but they are still in the therapeutic range of 10 to 100 ng/ml. Therefore, the dose of pindolol could have been reduced by a factor 2, but the reduction was not essential. No active metabolite of pindolol was found in plasma or urine, but elimination of the metabolites was decreased. The elimination half-life following multiple doses was prolonged compared to normal and it was quite comparable to that found for the pharmacodynamic half-life in renal patients. The discrepancy between the present findings and the previous results for metabolism and pharmacodynamic half-life was probably due to the sensitivity of the fluorimetric assay of pindolol.

    Notes: Summary The disposition kinetics of a single i.v. dose of amikacin was studied in 6 neonates (6–25 days old), 10 infants (4–18 months) and 8 young children (3–11 years). There was a progressive change in the distribution and elimination kinetics during development. The distribution coefficient of the antibiotic averaged of 0.429, 0.320 and 0.210 l/kg in the newborns, infants and young children, respectively and serum half-life (t1/2 β) in these three groups averaged 2.812, 1.803 and 1.196 h, respectively. Significant differences in certain pharmacokinetic parameters were found between the values in paediatric patients and in adults receiving the same dose. A linear relationship was established between the distribution volume of the antibiotic and the weight of the patients, as defined by the following equation: $${\text{Vd}}_{{\text{ss}}} \left( 1 \right) = 0.976 + 1.140 \cdot {\text{TBW}}\left( {{\text{kg}}} \right);r = 0.954$$ The results suggest that a regimen of very frequent administrations should be employed in infants and young children in order to maintain a therapeutic level throughout treatment.

    Notes: Summary The plasma concentrations of mebendazole and its metabolites have been monitored in twelve patients after receiving a 10 mg/kg dose for cystic hydatid disease. The mebendazole plasma concentration-time profiles differed considerably between patients; elimination half-lives ranged from 2.8–9.0 h, time to peak plasma concentration after dosing ranged from 1.5–7.25 h and peak plasma concentrations ranged from 17.5 to 500 ng/ml. The mean peak plasma concentration of mebendazole after an initial dose (69.5 ng/ml) was lower than found in patients during chronic therapy (137.4 ng/ml). The plasma AUCTs for the major metabolites of mebendazole (methyl 5-(α-hydroxybenzyl)-2-benzimidazole carbamate and 2-amino-5 benzoylbenzimidazole) were about five times the plasma AUCT found for mebendazole in patients on chronic therapy. It is suggested that the slower clearance of these polar metabolites relative to mebendazole results from enterohepatic recycling. Since mebendazole is also highly plasma protein bound, caution should be observed in administering mebendazole to patients with liver disease. Concentrations of mebendazole found in the tissue and cyst material collected from two patients during surgery ranged from 59.5 to 206.6 ng/g wet weight.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of melperone (Buronil®, Ferrosan, Sweden) was studied after administration of various parenteral and oral doses to man. After parenteral administration, the data could be fitted to a two-compartment model, but after oral dosing the distribution phase could not be separated from the elimination phase, and so an one-compartment model gave the best fit. The half-lives were about 3–4 h, except after intramuscular injection, when the half-life was about 6 h. The bioavailability of oral doses was about 60% of the intravenous injection. After the highest oral dose of 100 mg, the pharmacokinetics, expressed as AUC or Cmax, showed non-linearity, possibly due to saturation of the hepatic elimination system.

    Notes: Summary Plasma samples and biopsies of vaginal tissue were obtained from 23 healthy women undergoing operative sterilization, 1 to 6 h after a single oral dose of ketoconazole 200 mg. Drug concentrations in plasma and tissue, were measured by a specific gas chromatographic method. The vaginal tissue concentration averaged 2.4 times less than the corresponding plasma levels. Equilibrium between tissue, and plasma was established within 1 h after dosing, when vaginal tissue levels exceeded 1 µg/g. Ketoconazole concentrations decayed monoexponentially over the time interval studied (1–6 h), with the similar half-lives of 1.2 and 1.4 h in plasma and tissue, respectively. Following an oral 200 mg dose, a tissue concentration not less than 0.01 µg/ml was maintained over a 12 h period. This concentration has been shown to prevent outgrowth of the invasive (pseudo) mycelial form ofCandida albicans. Hence, a b.i.d. or t.i.d. dosage schedule of ketoconazole in vaginal candidosis would give continuously effective levels at the site of infection. Ketoconazole concentrations in vaginal fluid are thought to be much higher than in the tissue because of ion-trapping. The present data may explain the efficacy of oral ketoconazole in the treatment of vaginal candidosis.

    Notes: Summary Furosemide was measured by gas-liquid chromatography in blood and dialysis fluid from 7 children with chronic renal failure, undergoing regular haemodialysis. It was administered chronically, in two or three daily doses (4.2–9.4 mg/kg). Two children received 1 mg/kg intravenously for determination of the pharmacokinetics. The half-life was longer than in adults and in anephric patients on haemodialysis. Systemic and renal clearance were also much lower. Plasma protein binding in 2 out of 6 cases was reduced as campared to normal adults. The data do not suggest any need to modify the present dosage schedule despite the 4–5 fold increase in the half-life of furosemide. The contribution of haemodialysis to drug clearance was minimal, and accounted for less than 10% of the total clearance.

    Notes: Summary Pharmacokinetic data for diclofenac sodium has been well established in healthy volunteers, whereas in patients with rheumatoid arthritis very little information is available in the literature. A single oral dose of enteric-coated diclofenac sodium was given to 10 patients with active rheumatoid disease, adopting the same procedures used for a group of 10 healthy volunteers in whom pharmacokinetic data was already available. Plasma specimens were collected over a period of 8h following administration and concentrations of diclofenac determined by GLC. Resulting plasma concentration curves were similar to those obtained in the healthy subjects in that areas under curves and terminal half-lives were comparable. However, peak concentrations of diclofenac were significantly reduced in the rheumatoid patients. The lower peak concentrations were correlated with the lower serum albumin levels in the patients which are associated with active rheumatoid disease.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of caffeine was examined in 13 premature infants (gestational age 25–34 weeks, birth weight 920–2060 g, postnatal age 1–42 days) who received the drug for treatment of opnoea. Caffeine (1% aqueous solution) was given i.v. in single doses; guided by the clinical response infants received between one and seven (mean 2.6) doses of 15 mg/kg. Mean (± SE; range) Clb was extremely slow − 8.5 ml/kg/h (±0.4; 5.8–12.2), t1/2 was prolonged − 65.0 h (±3.7; 48.2–87.5 h) and Vd was 0.781/kg (±0.04; 0.47–1.01). No significant correlation was found between Clb, t1/2 and postnatal age in the whole group or in individual infants. Effective plasma concentrations varied over a wide range (12–36 µg/ml) and overlapped with subtherapeutic concentrations (⩽24 µg/ml). Single doses of 15 mg/kg i.v. or p.o. prevented apnoea in most cases, if necessary followed by additional doses. Monitoring the blood level of caffeine in infants receiving frequent repeated doses is necessary to prevent toxicity.

    Notes: Summary Plasma and urinary levels of chlorpheniramine (CPM) and its 2 demethylated metabolites were measured by HPLC after i.v. and oral dosing. In 5 mg (maleate) i.v. bolus studies in 2 subjects, plasma CPM levels were fitted to triexponential equations with terminal half-lives (t 1/2) of 23 and 22 h and area of 3.6 and 3.21/kg, respectively. Intravenous data predicted hepatic blood extraction ratios for the 2 subjects to be 0.06 and 0.07, respectively. Absolute bioavailability from oral solution (10 mg) was 59 and 34%, and from tablets (8 mg) 44 and 25%, respectively, indicating extensive gut first-pass metabolism. Mean t 1/2 from 7 oral fasting studies in 5 subjects was 28 h (19–43 h). Mean absorption lag time was 0.7 h (0.4–1.3 h), and mean peak time was 2.8 h (2–4 h). In 2 subjects, 6 mg solutions were given every 12 h for 9 doses; good correlation between single and multiple dose kinetics was found. Significant accumulation was demonstrated in simulation studies with frequent daily dosing. Estimated accumulation ratios vary from 4.1 to 9.4 (mean 6.5). The t 1/2 from urinary data (collected for 12 days) was consistent with plasma data. The above results suggest the need to reexamine the current practice of frequent daily dosing and the use of sustained or controlled release dosage forms of this drug. The possible cause of reduced plasma clearance of CPM in renal patients is discussed.

In order to assess the inter-and intra-subject variability the following pharmacokinetic parameters were compared: AUC o 24 , Cmax, tmax and t1/2. The smallest variation in inter-subject variability was seen with oxprenolol and acebutolol: intrasubject variability was more uniform. Female volunteers taking an oral contraceptive generally had higher AUC o 24 and Cmax values than those not. This finding reached statistical significance only for metoprolol AUC o 24 .

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic parameters and oral bioavailability of the antiarrhythmic drug verapamil were determined in six patients with atrial fibrillation. Plasma samples were taken following i.v. injection of verapamil 10 mg (Isoptin® 2 ml), and oral verapamil 80 mg (Isoptin® 2 tablets of 40 mg). Verapamil and its N-demethylated metabolite, norverapamil, were analyzed to 1 ng/ml plasma by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using deuterated standards. Following intravenous injection, the disposition of verapamil followed a biexponential pattern with a fast distribution phase and a slower elimination phase (t1/2β=5.79 h), corresponding to a plasma clearance of 0.26 1/kg/h. After oral administration, only an elimination phase was evident, with the same elimination rate (t1/2β=5.53 h). The oral bioavailability was 10.5%±7.5%. The norverapamil formed after i.v. and oral administration of verapamil had plasma half-lives of 5.86 h and 6.77 h, respectively. The elimination of verapamil in patients with atrial fibrillation was decreased compared to that in healthy young volunteers and the oral bioavailability was lower. Very good correlation between the percentage reduction in heart rate and the log plasma concentration of verapamil was found in every patient during the elimination phase, irrespective of the route of administration. There was also a high correlation when the plasma concentration — effect data from all the patients were pooled (r=0.59,n=71;p〈0.0005).

    Notes: Summary Theophylline pharmacokinetics were studied in 12 infants (age 3 weeks–6.5 months) with bronchiolitis. 9 of the 12 patients received a single dose of aminophylline (5.0–8.5 mg/kg) whereas the remainder were at steady-state receiving multiple doses (2.5–5.0 mg/kg) of aminophylline. The dose was administered IV over 0.5–1.0 h. An HPLC method was used to measure theophylline concentrations in serum and urine. Peak serum concentrations of theophylline measured by HPLC ranged from 8.48–21.6 µg/ml. Total, renal and nonrenal clearance of theophylline ranged from 4.66 to 19.25, 1.07 to 5.76 and 3.59 to 16.83 ml/min/m2, respectively. Mean apparent volume of distribution and elimination half-life were 8.75 l/m2 and 11.38 h, respectively. Although no significant correlation was observed between age and theophylline kinetic parameters, clearance appeared to increase and half-life decrease with age. Our patients had a substantially lower clearance and longer half-life as compared to published data in children 〉1 year of age. A five-fold variation in theophylline clearance demonstrates the need for monitoring theophylline serum concentration to minimize the risk of potential toxicity.

    Notes: Summary The effect of chronic oral contraceptive (OC) usage on the disposition of theophylline was examined. Aminophylline solution (4 mg/kg) was given orally to 8 healthy female non-OC users and to 8 healthy women who were chronic (〉6 months) OC users. The OC user group had a significantly lower total plasma clearance of theophylline than women not using OC (35.1±5.6 vs. 53.1±14.5 ml/h/kg). The t1/2 was also significantly prolonged in the OC group (9.79±1.43 vs. 7.34±1.75 h) while the volume of distribution was similar between the 2 groups. The serum ethinylestradiol (EE) concentrations after oral OC administration were measured simultaneously. The apparent clearance of EE was about 30% lower in the OC users. A significant positive correlation was found between the apparent clearance of EE and the plasma clearance of theophylline. The effects of OC are predominantly due to chronic use with decreased elimination of both theophylline and EE.

    Notes: Summary The excretion of radioactivity has been investigated in 3 healthy volunteers following rapid intravenous administration of 5 g of [35S]-ticarcillin. The radioactive dose was rapidly and completely excreted, since within 4 days 98.5% was recovered, 95% in the urine and 3.5% in faeces. All the urine radioactivity was accounted for as ticarcillin and its penicilloic acid. Plasma and urine samples collected from the volunteers at frequent intervals during the first 6 h of the experiment were assayed for penicillin by an automated chemical method and also for radioactivity. The results obtained by the chemical autoanalyser method were in excellent agreement with the plasma levels of radioactivity. From the data it was possible to calculate the renal clearance of the penicillin, a mean value of 104 ml/min was observed in the 3 volunteers. A further three volunteers were dosed intravenously with a 5 g bolus of non-radiolabelled ticarcillin in a cross-over study with and without predosing with probenecid. Serum samples were analysed by the chemical method for penicillin and the data subjected to pharmacokinetic analysis using a two compartment open model. The results indicate a shift of the distribution equilibrium of ticarcillin from the serum into the peripheral compartment after predosing with probenecid. Furthermore, the mean half-life of ticarcillin in the serum of the three volunteers was significantly increased from 1.3 h to 2.1 h by predosing with probenecid.

    Notes: Summary Two preparations of dipyridamole have been studied by oral administration to 11 normal volunteers. The plasma levels of dipyridamole and its glucuronide were determined simultaneously by high performance liquid chromatography. The instant form (I.F., 100 mg) was administered four times daily and the slow release preparation (SRP, 200 mg) twice daily, for 3 days. Multiple blood samples were collected on Days 1–4 to provide plasma for assay, and simulteneously, platelet rich plasma was prepared for ex vivo study of the effect of dipyridamole on platelet uptake of adenosine. The pharmacokinetics of absorption and distribution of dipyridamole were described using a two compartment model with lag time and prolonged absorption. Strong inhibition of the platelet adenosine uptake was observed at therapeutic plasma levels. The inhibition of platelet adenosine uptake may be related to some of the pharmacological properties of dipyridamole.

The slow-release tablet was absorbed more slowly than the capsule (tmax 3.7 h and 〈 2 h, respectively) and produced more even serum drug levels in 10 subjects. Side-effects, especially dizziness and diarrhoea, were less frequent after the slow-release tablet than during the capsule period.

Analysis of serum for free3H-phenylephrine and fractionation of urinary radioactivity was performed by ion-exchange and thin-layer chromatography. As almost the same3H-activity was excreted in urine after i.v. and p.o. administration, 86% and 80% of the dose respectively, complete enteral absorption can be assumed. A considerable difference was seen in the fraction of free phenylephrine, i.v. 16% of the dose versus p.o. 2.6%, which suggested reduced bioavailability. This was confirmed by comparison of the areas under the serum curve, which showed a bioavailability factor of 0.38. The result for the patient with porto-caval anastomosis was comparable to that in the normal volunteers. The biological half-life of 2 to 3h was comparable to that of structurally related amines, as were the total clearance of 2 1/h, and the volume of distribution of 340l. Metabolism to phenolic conjugates mainly after oral ingestion, and tom-hydroxymandelic acid after i.v. injection, again demonstrated thatm-hydroxylated amines are predominantly conjugated during the “first-pass” metabolism.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of furosemide was studied in 7 patients with diagnosed liver cirrhosis and in 7 healthy subjects. Furosemide in plasma and ascitic fluid was analyzed spectrofluorometrically. After a single intravenous dose, the cirrhotic patients showed lower initial plasma concentrations of furosemide because of the larger volume of distribution. The mean half-life in cirrhotic patients was significantly greater than in healthy volunteers. The longer half-life was associated with a reduction in the serum clearance of furosemide. Ascitic fluid volume in the patients ranged from 4.6 to 7.71. There was no significant amount of furosemide in the fluid. The diuretic interchange between this fluid and plasma was slow, as peak concentrations ranged from 0.3 to 0.5 µg/ml within 3 to 5 h after bolus administration of furosemide. Diuresis and urinary sodium excretion, 5 h after furosemide injection, were similar in both groups; larger potassium excretion was found in the cirrhotic patients.

    Notes: Summary A single intravenous dose of cimetidine 200mg was administered to 6 patients with severe chronic renal failure one hour prior to haemodialysis. The plasma concentrations of cimetidine and its sulphoxide metabolite at the start of haemodialysis were 2.74±0.12 and 0.76±0.08 µg/ml, and after dialysis for 4h 1.08±0.10 and 0.51±0.08 µg/ml, respectively (mean ± SE). The average haemodialysis clearance (ClHDa) of cimetidine during dialysis was 46–92ml/min at a dialysate flow rate of 320ml/min and blood flow rates in the 6 patients between 160–240ml/min. The mean ClHDa of the sulphoxide metabolite was 44% higher than that of cimetidine, and ranged between 49–148ml/min. During haemodialysis the mean plasma elimination half-life (t1/2) of cimetidine was 3.24h (range 2.08–5.08) and of the sulphoxide metabolite 9.49h (range 4.70–14.39). There was a significant relationship between the elimination rate constant (β) and ClHDa of the sulphoxide metabolite (p〈0.01), but no such relationship was found between β and ClHDa of cimetidine. However, there was a tendency to a relationship between β of cimetidine and the capacity to metabolise the drug, expressed as the ratio between the plasma concentrations of the sulphoxide metabolite and cimetidine after dialysis for 4h. These ratios ranged between 0.23–0.76, and the lowest ratio was seen in the patient with the lowest β value of cimetidine. Thus, the large variations in the plained by differences in their capacity to metabolise the drug. The mean total amount of cimetidine eliminated during dialysis was 27.3mg (range 17.9–31.8), which was 9.0–15.9% of the given dose. Between 12.2–21.2mg (mean 15.3) of the sulphoxide metabolite was eliminated in the dialysate. Major adjustment of the dose of cimetidine on days of dialysis is not necessary.

    Notes: Summary Chronic treatment with conventional lithium carbonate was interrupted in a selected group of 40 psychiatric patients of mixed sex and race. All patients had normal renal function. Serum samples were taken 12, 24, 36 and 48 h after the last dose and lithium was assayed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Decay rates calculated for the 12–24 h and 36–48 h periods yielded different values. This was ascribed to the presence of an incomplete redistribution phase during the earlier period. The distribution of elimination rates determined during the later period gave a more symmetrical spread and approximated a normal distribution. The mode, median, mean and standard deviation of the lithium elimination half-lives were 12.5, 14, 18.2 and 7.3 h and 22.5, 24.5, 29.8 and 10.1 h for the two periods, respectively. The results contrast sharply with another report of the distribution spread of elimination half-lives in a much larger sample. The current values have implications for dosage prediction, serum level monitoring and dosage formulation, especially sustained-release preparations. The evidence was against the possibility that some individuals ‘retain’ lithium.

    Notes: Summary The elimination and bioavailability of two beta-blocking agents, propranolol and sotalol, were studied in 10 thyrotoxic patients, both before and after treatment with iodine-131. Each subject received in random order propranolol 160 mg and sotalol 160mg as single oral doses both while hyperthyroid and after euthyroidism had been achieved. The pharmacokinetics of sotalol was not affected by hyperthyroidism, whereas serum propranolol concentrations were significantly lower during hyperthyroidism than in the euthyroid state. During hyperthyroidism, the bioavailability of propranolol was significantly reduced (p〈0.05) and its clearance was increased (p〈0.005), whereas there was no difference in its serum t1/2. This indicates that the bioavailability of propranolol in hyperthyroidism is reduced by a mechanism which may depend on increased first-pass metabolism in the liver, or on an increased distribution volume of the drug. Both propranolol and sotalol caused a slight decrease in serum tri-iodothyronine concentration. As the effects of beta-blocking agents on the symptoms of hyperthyroidism are correlated with the serum concentration of the drugs, sotalol, with its long half-life and unaltered elimination in hyperthyroidism, has certain advantages over propranolol in the treatment of thyrotoxicosis.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of antipyrine in plasma and saliva, and urinary excretion of its major metabolites, were studied following i.v. and oral administration of antipyrine 500 mg to 6 healthy volunteers. Data from both plasma and saliva showed that the oral bioavailability of antipyrine given as an aqueous solution was complete. The saliva/plasma concentration ratio was constant with time from about 3 h onwards, with a mean value of 0.87 after oral and 0.91 after i.v. administration. It is concluded that the pharmacokinetic parameters of antipyrine can be satisfactorily established on the basis of salivary data, although the volume of distribution and clearance values are then slightly too high. After i.v. administration, 3.8±1.9% of the dose was excreted in urine as unchanged antipyrine in 48h, 24.9±6.3% as 4-hydroxyantipyrine, 16.5±3.2% as norantipyrine, 13.0±2.2% as 3-hydroxymethyl-antipyrine and 5.8±1.0% as 3-carboxy-antipyrine. No significant differences were observed following oral administration. The half-lives calculated from the linear part of the urinary excretion rate curves of the metabolites were about the same for oral and i.v. administration, and were of the same order of magnitude as the elimination half-life of parent drug in plasma and saliva. It is important for determination of the ultimate metabolite ratio that urine is collected for at least 36h, because there is a delay in the excretion of 3-hydroxymethyl-antipyrine in urine.

    Notes: Summary Thirty one in-patients suffering from depression were treated orally with clomipramine (Cl) at various dosage, for 28 days, after a “wash-out” period of three days. In 17 patients receiving 75 mg per day of Cl, steady state plasma levels of Cl were reached at Day 14, and steady state plasma levels of its active metabolite, desmethylclomipramine (DMCl), were reached at Day 21. In contrast, in 7 other patients receiving a dosage increasing to 150 mg per day at Day 7, mean plasma levels of Cl and DMCl continued to rise during the entire treatment period. At the steady state, a correlation was found between Cl dosage expressed as mg kg body weight and the plasma concentration of Cl and DMCl. Factors such as tobacco and alcohol consumption seem to modify the Cl/DMCl ratio. A comparison of clinical response with plasma levels of Cl, DMCl and Cl + DMCl showed a significant negative linear correlation.

    Notes: Summary An high-pressure liquid chromatographic method was used to measure allopurinol and oxipurinol in plasma and urine in 6 healthy volunteers after a single intravenous or oral dose of allopurinol. The influence of coadministrated benzbromarone and hydrochlorothiazide on the pharmacokinetics of allopurinol and oxipurinol was also investigated. After intravenous injection of allopurinol 300 mg the plasma disappearance was biexponential, with a mean distribution half-life of 2.32±1.08 min $$(\bar x \pm SD)$$ and an elimination half-life of 47.8±10.6 min. The total clearance of allopurinol was 11.37±2.70 ml/min/kg, whereas its renal clearance was only 1.73±0.79 ml/min/kg. Oxipurinol disappeared monoexponentially from plasma ith a mean half-life of 12.2±2.6 h. Its renal clearance was 0.42±0.091 ml/min/kg. After oral administration of allopurinol 300 mg the peak plasma concentration of 2.1±0.6 µg/ml (1.5×10−5 M) was reached within 30 to 120 min. The peak level of oxipurinol of 5.8±1.5 µg/ml (3.8×10−5 M) was found within 2 to 5 h after intravenous and oral allopurinol. The bioavailability of oral allopurinol computed from plasma data was 90.4±8.7%. The total recovery from urine was 77% (allopurinol 8%, oxipurinol 69%) after oral and 88% after i.v. administration. It was concluded that about 10% of the oral dose was not absorbed and that 12% was eliminated by an unknown mechanism, presumably as riboside. The pharmacokinetics of allopurinol and oxipurinol were not significantly influenced by coadministration of benzbromarone or hydrochlorothiazide.

    Notes: Summary Deuterated methadone (M-d30) and GC-MS were used to study the pharmacokinetics of methadone (M) during the induction stage of methadone maintenance treatment (MMT). A pulse dose of M-d3 was given on Days 1 and 25 of two dosage regimens, one with a continuous 30 mg dose (n=6), and the other with 30 mg for 10 days, followed by 60 mg as the maintenance dose (n=6). Plasma and urinary levels of M and M-d3 were measured throughout and plasma half-lives, oral bioavailabilities and volumes of distribution were calculated from the data of Days 1–2 and 24–26. The oral bioavailability of a methadone solution was found to be between 81 and 95%; elimination half-life in the β-phase varied between 19 and 58 h; the volume of distribution was 4.1±0.65 l/kg; and total body clearance of M was 54–195 ml/min and its renal clearance 3.4–34 ml/min. A consistent finding was a lower urinary pH and increased renal clearance during the first days of MMT as compared with after one month. In 4/12 of the patients dispositional tolerance was developed to methadone during the first month of treatment. The shorter elimination half-lives in those patients probably caused unacceptably high fluctuation in the body content of M during the 24 h dosage interval, and may have interfered therefore, with its therapeutic effectiveness

    Notes: Summary A simple and reliable HPLC method for the determination of tienilic acid ((TA) Selacryn®, Selcryn®, Diflurex®, Ticrynafen®) and its alcoholic metabolite in plasma and urine has been developed. In 8 healthy adult volunteers the plasma and urinary levels of tienilic acid and its alcoholic metabolite, and plasma and urinary levels of sodium, creatinine and uric acid were measured after oral administration of tienilic acid 250 mg. The pharmacokinetic parameters found differed only slightly from those reported in the literature, as there was faster absorption and a shorter half-life. TA is probably excreted by a saturable renal tubular transport mechanism. The pharmacodynamic effects of tienilic acid developed quickly, the uricosuric effect being very impressive and the natriuretic effect moderate. These effects disappeared in about 8 h. An inverse relationship was found between the starting plasma uric acid level in an individual and the maximal uric acid clearance — the higher the plasma uric acid level, the lower was the maximum effect. Plasma tienilic acid level and natriuretic effect were correlative within individuals and intra-individually (p〈0.05). Urinary tienilic acid level and natriuretic effect were correlated, too (p〈0.05 top〈0.001), but only intraindividually. No correlation between drug level and uricosuric effect was found.

After i.v. administration, the disposition of noscapine was bi-exponential with an elimination half-life of 2.6 h; the total plasma clearance was 22 ml/min/kg and the volume of distribution (Vdarea) was 4.7 l/kg. The absolute oral bioavailability was 30%, with a 3.6-fold interindividual variation. There was no pharmacokinetic evidence to support a prolonged action of the ion exchange resin tablet.

    Notes: Summary Serum theophylline concentrations after intravenous administration of a new short-term infusion (Euphyllin® Kurzzeitinfusion) were measured in 50 out-patients with chronic obstructive airways disease (COAD). An intravenous infusion of theophylline ethylenediamine 480 mg (corresponding to approximately 350 mg anhydrous theophylline) in 50 ml isotonic solution was given in 20 min. Blood samples were taken beforehand and 25 to 30 min and 1, 3 and 6 h after starting the infusion. 86% of the patients had a one-hour serum level in the therapeutic range of 8–20 mg/l, and 2 h later, this was true of 64% of the patients. The short-term infusion was well tolerated, even in cases with unknown high pre-infusion serum levels. Pertinent pharmacokinetic parameters were determined, such as total body clearance, apparent volume of distribution, and half-life of elimination. Geometric mean and 95%-confidence limits, derived from the log-normal distribution of these parameters, were: Cl=0.044 (0.018–0.109) l/h/kg ideal body weight, Vd=0.451 (0.258–0.789) l/kg ideal body weight, and t1/2(el)=7.1 (2.6–19.1) h.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of bacmecillinam and pivmecillinam were studied in healthy fasting volunteers given tablets in a cross-over, randomized order. The mean (±SD) peak levels of plasma mecillinam were 1.43±0.34, 2.73±0.43, and 4.62±1.41 mg/l after bacmecillinam 100, 200, and 400 mg and 2.38±0.65 mg/l after pivmecillinam 400 mg. The corresponding areas under plasma Vs time curves (AUC) were 2.21±0.19, 3.99±0.63, and 7.74±1.38 mg·h·l−1 for bacmecillinam and 5.35±0.93 mg·h·l−1 for pivmecillinam. The elimination half-lives were 0.8–1.1h for bacmecillinam and 0.7h for pivmecillinam. The 12 h urinary recovery of unchanged mecillinam after the 400 mg doses was 41% for bacmecillinam and 30% for pivmecillinam. The 400 mg dose of bacmecillinam gave a significantly higher plasma peak (p〈0.001), AUC (p〈0.001) and urinary recovery (p〈0.001) than did pivmecillinam 400 mg. The plasma peaks appeared earlier and the rate of absorption was higher after bacmecillinam than after pivmecillinam (p〈0.05). In conclusion, bacmecillinam had a better bioavailability than pivmecillinam in the tablet formulations studied. The AUC increased linearly with increasing doses of bacmecillinam.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of terodiline HCl was studied in nine healthy volunteers given 12.5 mg i.v. and p.o. or 20 mg i.v. and 25 mg p.o. on two different occasions. The serum concentrations were measured by gas chromatography — mass spectrometry, using deuterated terodiline HCl as the internal standard. After i.v. administration the kinetics could be described by a two-compartment model with a mean distribution half life of 0.3 h and a mean elimination half life of 63 h. The serum clearance and apparent volume of distribution varied about 4-fold with mean values of 4.8 l/h and 417 l, respectively. After oral administration, the mean half life of absorption was 0.7 h and that of elimination 65 h. The absolute bioavailability varied between 64% and 105% with a mean of 92%. The long serum half life of terodiline should permit its once daily administration.

    Notes: Summary Pancuronium in bolus doses of 40 to 350 µg/kg was administered to surgical patients in order to evaluate the linearity of its pharmacokinetics. The profile of the plasma decay curve and of its urinary elimination were compared with reference to the administered dose. It was possible to superimpose the dose-normalized plasma decay-curves. The parameters of the two compartment-open model used to describe the pharmacokinetics of pancuronium were not influenced by the dose. The elimination half-life was 89±20 min and the plasma clearance was 1.84±0.38 ml/min/kg. The profiles of cumulative urinary excretion were also dose-independent. After 6 and 24 h, 57% and 69% of the administered dose, respectively, had been excreted in the urine. The results indicate that the pharmacokinetics of pancuronium is linear.

    Notes: Summary Five and 10 mg single oral doses of a new vasodilator antihypertensive, endralazine (E) were given on separate occasions to 17 normal male volunteers (8 slow, 7 heterozygous fast and 2 homozygous fast acetylators). The homozygous fast acetylators were excluded from statistical comparisons. Only small differences were observed in the pharmacokinetics of E between the phenotypes and there was no evidence of non-linearity at the 2 dose levels studied. Terminal half-lives ranged from 2.59 to 7.14 h with a mean of 4.30±1.08 h for the 5 mg dose and 4.25±1.09 h for the 10 mg dose. There was no significant difference in half-lives between slow and heterozygous fast acetylators. The mean area under the plasma level-time curve (AUC 0 ∞ ) was 18.2% lower (p〈0.05) in the heterozygous fast acetylators than in the slow acetylators following the 5 mg dose and 11.0% lower (p〉0.05) following the 10 mg dose. Extremely rapid absorption of the drug precluded accurate estimation of absorption rates. The AUC 0 ∞ of the acetylation metabolite (methyltriazoloendralazine) was small compared to that of E although higher in the heterozygous fast acetylators than in the slow acetylators (p〈0.01).

    Estimation of absorption ratios and their variation for orally administered drugs (1982)

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Differences in the plasma concentrations of drugs after oral administration are caused by two main factors: variation in absorption ratios and in the distribution processes in the body. A new method for the dissection of both types of factors is discussed. The method uses a reference regression of the AUC-values to the corresponding values after intravenous infusion of graded doses. The reference regression is estimated from an appropriate trial. Deviation of the determined AUC-values from the regression curve afford an estimate of the residual variance due to varying distribution volumes or similar random biological effects. For the estimation of absorption ratios after oral administration the drug is given orally to another sample of subjects and their AUC-values are calculated. The deviation of these AUC values due to the above mentioned random effects are simulated using the residual variance of the reference regression, and are subtracted from the observed AUC-values. Then, the differences in the corresponding absorbed doses are transformed by inverting the reference regression. From these doses the empirical distribution function and statistical parameters (e.g. quantiles) are determined. The method has the advantage that no restrictive assumptions are required, such as first order processes, dose linearity, homogeneity of variance or normal distribution of absorption ratios. Its applicability to substances with qualitative differences in their pharmacokinetics is demonstrated by appropriate examples.

    Notes: Summary The influence of urinary pH on the acute disposition of methadone in man was studied in five healthy volunteers. A cross-over experiment was performed in each subject. In the first experiment the subjects were treated with ammonium chloride (urinary pH ≈ 5.2) and in the other the urine was made alkaline (pH ≈ 7.8) by treatment with sodium hydrogen carbonate. d, 1-Methadone-HCl 10 mg (M) was administered intramuscularly on each occasion and blood, saliva and urine levels of M were determined by mass fragmentography. Plasma half-lives, volumes of distribution and body clearances of M were calculated in both experiments. The plasma half-lives in the β-phase were 19.5±3.6 h (acidic urine) and 42.1±8.8 h (alkaline urine), respectively (p〈0.001). The volumes of distribution were increased when the pretreatment was changed from ammonium chloride to sodium bicarbonate, namely from 3.51±0.41 l/kg to 5.24±0.83 l/kg (p〈0.01). The body clearance decreased from 134±21 ml/min (acidic) to 91.9±9.1 ml/min (alkaline urine) (p〈0.01). The ration Mplasma/MRBC was about 2.3 and the elimination of M from RBCs was in good agreement with the plasma kinetics of M under both experimental conditions. The salivary levels of M did not reflect the plasma kinetics and considerable variation was seen in the ratio Msaliva/Mplasma (0.26–2.98). Thus, the present experiments demonstrate that pretreatment either with ammonium chloride or bicarbonate had profound effects on both the distribution and elimination kinetics of methadone.

    Notes: Summary Erythromycin kinetics were studied in 17 patients with end stage renal failure treated with maintenance haemodialysis and 9 normal volunteers to discover if dialysis patients needed a modified dose. The elimination half life in dialysis patients (on dialysis days) was similar to that reported in normal subjects. Only small amounts of drug appeared in the dialysate, no patient loosing more than 9 mg in one dialysis. Both patients and volunteers had similar plasma concentrations 8 h after the end of a 5-day course. Protein-binding did not change significantly during dialysis and was similar to that reported in normal subjects. We conclude that dialysis patients requiring 1.5 g of erythromycin stearate daily or less can be given normal doses.

    Notes: Summary An attempt to produce a set of addition lines of Aegilops sharonensis to the wheat variety ‘Chinese Spring’ produced only one addition line. This was due to preferential transmission of one chromosome from Ae. sharonensis. This chromosome was studied in detail by established cytological methods of chromosome observation and by the newer techniques of C-banding and in situ hybridization of a cloned DNA sequence. The chromosome was found to be partially homologous to an Ae. sharonensis chromosome of similar behaviour in another wheat addition line. The incomplete homology of the two Ae. sharonensis chromosomes was due to the presence of a translocated segment of a wheat chromosome. — Substitution lines of the Ae. sharonensis chromosome for wheat homoeologous group 4 were produced and the Ae. sharonensis chromosome thereby designated 4 S l .

    Notes: Summary Two NAD-dependent alcohol dehydrogenases ADH-1 and ADH-2, under independent genetic control of genes designated as Adh-1 and Adh-2 located on chromosomes 4A, 4B and 4D, have been reported in aestivum wheat (Hart 1980). Only ADH-1 is expressed in developing seeds, dry seeds, pollen and germinating seedlings. ADH-2 can be induced in seedling roots or shoots under conditions of partial anaerobiosis or by certain chemicals. Expression of ADH-1 and ADH-2 isoenzymes was investigated in undifferentiated calli from aestivum and durum wheats, rye, triticale and also in in vitro regenerated roots and leaves from aestivum cultures. Wheat callus cultures originating from seed, mature and immature embryos, mesocotyl and root, as well as cultures grown on media containing different supplements did not show any variation in the overall expression of ADH-1 or ADH-2, although differences in the band intensities were observed. The callus isoenzyme pattern was similar to that observed in roots under anaerobic conditions. Both ADH-1 and ADH-2 were expressed in in vitro regenerated roots but were absent in regenerated leaves. Expression of ADH-1 and ADH-2 in wheat calli seems to be related to the type of differentiation.

    Notes: Summary Genetical analysis of the F2 triple test cross design combined with conventional early generations was used to elucidate the genetical control of yield and yield components in two crosses of winter wheat. From estimates of the additive, {d}, and additive X additive, {i}, components of means, together with the additive genetical variance, D, predicted frequencies of recombinant inbred lines that would transgress the parental range were calculated for each cross. The accuracy of predictions was evaluated by comparing expected frequencies with observed numbers in populations of F6 lines previously developed by single seed descent. For both crosses and all characters where an adequate genetical model was found to explain the observed variation between the early generations, good agreement between predicted and observed frequencies of transgressive segregants was obtained. Furthermore, for characters exhibiting significant epistasis, allowance for additive X additive {i} epistasis in the prediction equations was sufficient to allow for skewness of the recombinant inbred population. These results demonstrate that cross performance in wheat can be predicted from genetical analysis of early generations, and the value of this approach in breeding new varieties is discussed.

In a season conducive to high sprouting damage the gene reduced α-amylase levels in the field by 77%. Selection among random Rht3 genotypes showed that other genetic factors can be combined with the dwarfing gene to further increase sprouting damage resistance.

    Notes: Summary The 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD) zymogram phenotypes of wheat, rye and their aneuploid derivatives were determined. Two genes involved in the production of 6-PGD isozymes were located on chromosome arms CRL (4 RL) and FRL (6 RL) of “Imperial” rye. On the basis of differential interactions between wheat and rye chromosomes, evidence was obtained that genes located on chromosomes 6 A, 6 BL and 7 BL control 6-PGD isozyme activities in ‘Chinese Spring’ wheat. The wheat and rye 6-PGD zymogram phenotypes were indicative of homoeologous relationships between rye chromosome 6 RL to wheat chromosomes of group 6, and rye chromosome 4 RL to wheat chromosomes of group 7.

    Notes: Summary Homologous high molecular weight storage prolamins were purified from grain of wheat, rye and barley using combinations of gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography and preparative isoelectric focusing. Sodium dodecylsulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that the components were single bands with apparent mol.wts. of above 100,000. Molecular weights determined by sedimentation equilibrium ultracentrifugation were considerably lower; 54,700, 67,600 and 69,600 for the components from barley, rye and wheat respectively. Amino acid analysis showed the presence of 13.6 to 16.5 mol% glycine, 29.6 to 34.0 mol% glutamate + glutamine, 11.4 to 13.7 mol% proline and a total of 4.0 to 5.7 mol% basic amino acids. Automated N-terminal amino acid sequencing of the component from wheat showed the presence of cysteine residues at positions 5 and 10, and this is discussed in relation to the possible role of these proteins in the visco-elastic gluten network.

Chromosome pairing behaviour revealed that the alien chromosome in lines TAF-2 and L7 of ‘Vilmorin’-A. intermedium set are homologous to the alien chromosomes in lines P and C of the ‘Caribo’-A. intermedium set respectively. Localization of alcohol dehydrogenase isozyme genes in ‘Vilmorin’-Agropyron addition line L4 and in ‘Caribo’-Agropyron line O indicated relationships with wheat chromosomes of homoeologous group 4.

    Notes: Summary The wheat rDNA clone pTA250 was examined in detail to provide a restriction enzyme map and the nucleotide sequence of two of the eleven, 130 bp repeating units found within the spacer region. The 130 bp units showed some sequence heterogeneity. The sequence difference between the two 130 bp units analysed (130.6 and 130.8) was at 7 positions and could be detected as a 4 °C shift in Tm when heterologous and homologous hybrids were compared. This corresponded to a 1.2% change in nucleotide sequence per ΔTm of 1 °C. The sensitivity of the Tm analysis using cloned sequences facilitated the analysis of small sequence variations in the spacer region of different Triticum aestivum cultivars and natural populations of T. turgidum ssp. dicoccoides (referred to as T. dicoccoides). In addition spacer length variation was assayed by restriction enzyme digestion and hybridization with spacer sequence probes. Extensive polymorphism was observed for the spacer region in various cultivars of T. aestivum, although within each cultivar the rDNA clusters were homogeneous and could be assigned to particular chromosomes. Within natural populations of T. dicoccoides polymorphism was also observed but, once again, within any one individual the rDNA clusters appeared to be homogeneous. The polymorphism, at the sequence level (assayed by Tm analysis), was not so great as to prevent the use of spacer sequence variation as a probe for evolutionary relationships. The length variation as assayed by restriction enzyme digestion did not appear to be as useful in this regard, since its range of variation was extensive even within populations of a species.

    Chromosome and nucleotide sequence differentiation in genomes of polyploid Triticum species (1982)

    Notes: Summary The nature of genome change during polyploid evolution was studied by analysing selected species within the tribe Triticeae. The levels of genome changes examined included structural alterations (translocations, inversions), heterochromatinization, and nucleotide sequence change in the rDNA regions. These analyses provided data for evaluating models of genome evolution in polyploids in the genus Triticum, postulated on the basis of chromosome pairing at metaphase I in interspecies hybrids. The significance of structural chromosome alterations with respect to reduced MI chromosome pairing in interspecific hybrids was assayed by determining the incidence of heterozygosity for translocations and paracentric inversions in the A and B genomes of T. timopheevii ssp. araraticum (referred to as T. araraticum) represented by two lines, 1760 and 2541, and T. aestivum cv. Chinese Spring. Line 1760 differed from Chinese Spring by translocations in chromosomes 1A, 3A, 4A, 6A, 7A, 3B, 4B, 7B and possibly 2B. Line 2541 differed from Chinese Spring by translocations in chromosomes 3A, 6A, 6B and possibly 2B. Line 1760 also differed from Chinese Spring by paracentric inversions in arms 1AL and 4AL whereas line 2541 differed by inversions in 1BL and 4AL (not all chromosomes arms were assayed). The incidence of structural changes in the A and B genomes did not coincide with the more extensive differentiation of the B genomes relative to the A genomes as reflected by chromosome pairing studies. To assay changing degrees of heterochromatinization among species of the genus Triticum, all the diploid and polyploid species were C-banded. No general agreement was observed between the amount of heterochromatin and the ability of the respective chromosomes to pair with chromosomes of the ancestral species. Marked changes in the amount of heterochromatin were found to have occurred during the evolution of some of the polyploids. The analysis of the rDNA region provided evidence for rapid “fixation” of new repeated sequences at two levels, namely, among the 130 bp repeated sequences of the spacer and at the level of the repeated arrays of the 9 kb rDNA units. These occurred both within a given rDNA region and between rDNA regions on nonhomologous chromosomes. The levels of change in the rDNA regions provided good precedent for expecting extensive nucleotide sequence changes associated with differentiation of Triticum genomes and these processes are argued to be the principal cause of genome differentiation as revealed by chromosome pairing studies.

    Notes: Summary Tissue cultures ofTriticum aestivum L. (wheat) initiated from young inflorescences and immature embryos possessed the potential for regeneration of whole plants. Both a friable and a compact type of callus were produced on Murashige and Skoog's medium with 2 mg/l 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. The friable callus contained meristematic centers in which the peripheral cells ceased dividing, elongated, and could be easily separated. Roots were frequently formed in this type of callus. The compact, yellowish, and nodular callus arose from the epithelial and sub-epithelial cells of the embryo scutellum, and the rachis and glumes of the young inflorescence. Such callus had a smooth surface and characteristic chlorophyllous areas. Plants were regenerated only from the compact callus. The first sign of differentiation in the compact callus was the formation of a cleft or notch on the smooth surface, followed by the appearance of trichomes and the direct development of leafy structures which were not associated initially with any shoot meristems. Multiple shoots subsequently arose at the bases of the leafy structures, which are considered modifications of the scutellum, a definitive part of the cereal embryo. Accordingly, we suggest that while typical bipolar embryos are generally not formed, plant regeneration nevertheless takes place through embryogenesis and the precocious germination of the embryoids. Plants regenerated from immature embryo and inflorescence cultures were grown to maturity in soil, and were shown to have the normal chromosome number of 2n=6x=42.

    Notes: Abstract The literature growth in pharmacokinetics and bioavailability between the years 1964 and 1980 is analyzed. During much of this period, the literature doubled approximately every 1.6 years. However, during the period 1978–1980, little or no growth was observed. During the period 1950–1967, the total chemical literature increased exponentially with a half-life of 8.28 years; between 1968 and 1980, the half-life was 12.4 years. Thus, the pharmacokinetic literature increased at a much more rapid pace than did the total chemical literature in general. The subject of growth is considered in a general context, particularly as influenced by psychological, sociological, political, and economic factors. It is concluded that while mathematical functions may adequately describe past literature trends, they have little if any utility in predicting future trends in specific research areas such as pharmacokinetics.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics of chloramphenicol (CAP) and total chloramphenicol succinate (CAPS) were studied in eight hospitalized adult patients with normal renal and hepatic function receiving intravenous chloramphenicol sodium succinate therapy. The steady-state peak concentrations of CAP (8.4–26.0 μg/ml) occurred at an average of 18.0 min (range 5.4–40.2) after cessation of the chloramphenicol sodium succinate infusion. Unhydrolyzed CAPS prodrug, representing 26.0±7.0% of the dose, was recovered unchanged in the urine indicating that the bioavailability of CAP from a dose of intravenous chloramphenicol succinate is not complete. A pharmacokinetic model was developed for simultaneous fitting of CAP and CAPS plasma concentration data. Pharmacokinetic parameters determined by simultaneous fitting were: V, 0.81±0.18 liters/kg; t1/2, 3.20 ±1.02 hr; CLB, 3.21±1.27 ml/min/kg for chloramphenicol; and V, 0.38±0.13 liters/kg; t1/2, 0.57±0.12hr; CLB, 7.72±1.87 ml/min/kg for total chloramphenicol succinate.

    Notes: Abstract Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics were studied in three dogs with interventricular coronary artery ligatures (ligature of Harris) and in three control animals. Weighted nonlinear analysis was used to fit equations describing two and three compartment open models to the experimental data, obtained after intravenous injection (5 mg/kg) of the drug. The three compartment model gave a reduction in the weighted sum of squared residuals and an improvement in the randomness of scatter of the experimental points about the theoretical curve. The postdistribution elimination half-life was longer, the area under the plasma elimination curve larger, and the total body plasma clearance and apparent volume of distribution was reduced in the animals with arrhythmias. The pharmacological response was assessed by recording the ECG and calculating the percentage of normal sinus rhythm/min. A combined pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model was used to analyze data from individual animals. ke0, a measure of the lag time of pharmacological response behind changes in plasma concentration, and Ce (50), a measure of the sensitivity of the cardiac site of action of the drug, were determined.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of nitrazepam following intravenous, oral (tablet), and rectal (solution) administration were studied in seven healthy, young male volunteers. Nitrazepam plasma concentrations were determined by electron-capture GLC; pharmacokinetic evaluations were made by compartmental analysis (NONLIN) and compared with the results obtained by a less stringent modelling of the data. The plasma concentration-time profile was similar for all three routes of administration. Mean kinetic parameters as obtained by compartmental analysis of i.v. nitrazepam were: distribution half-life 17 min; volume of distribution after equilibrium 2.14 liters/kg; total plasma clearance 61.6 ml/min; elimination half-life 29.0 h. The mean protein unbound fraction of nitrazepam in plasma was 12.3% and the clearance of the unbound fraction was 506 ml/min. Absorption of oral nitrazepam started after the elapse of a lag time (mean value 12 min) and occurred as an apparent first-order process in all but one subject, with a mean absorption half-life of 16 min. Distribution and elimination half-lives were comparable with those following i.v. administration. Following rectal administration of the nitrazepam solution, rapid first-order absorption occurred with a mean lag time of 4 min and a mean absorption half-life of 9 min. Peak times (median 18 min) were significantly shorter than following oral administration (median 38 min), but there was little difference in peak concentrations. The distribution half-life was similar to i.v. and oral administration, but the elimination half-lives were longer with a mean value of 33.1 h. Following i.v. administration a good agreement was found between the results obtained by compartmental analysis using NONLIN and those obtained by a less stringent modelling of the data. Following oral and rectal administration, a good agreement between the two procedures was found for the elimination half-life; estimation of bioavailability, however, was higher by compartmental analysis. The mean bioavailability data showed that absorption is complete when nitrazepam is given orally and almost 20% lower when it is given rectally, but considerable interindividual differences were observed.

    Notes: Abstract Sulfaethidole distribution and elimination in the rat was studied over a 90-fold dose range. This experimental design produced marked nonlinearity in the binding of Sulfaethidole to proteins in both interstitial fluid and plasma. Using a multicompartmental model consisting of binding of Sulfaethidole to plasma and interstitial fluid proteins, Sulfaethidole distribution in the body could be simulated. Urinary and biliary elimination of Sulfaethidole depended on the unbound drug mass in the plasma and urine flow. The results confirm the central role of the unbound species in the distribution and elimination of drugs with marked binding to plasma proteins.

    Notes: Abstract The sensitivity theory is applied to derive a linear approximation to the functional dependence of some steady state quantities of therapeutic significance on pharmacokinetic parameters obtained from the biexponential response to a single drug dose. The error of a steady state prediction depends in general on two terms. The first one may be viewed as an approximate sensitivity of the prediction to the parameter errors, and this depends solely on the algebraic relation between the prediction and the parameters. The second term is the relative error in parameters, and this may be affected by experimental design and the method of data analysis. Comparisons are made with Monte Carlo simulations and “a posteriori”estimates of variance of a prediction.

    Notes: Abstract After administering a single 300 mg dose of theophylline in oral solution to 12 healthy adults, the dose-normalized area under the plasma concentration-time curve was 97.2±20.1 % (mean±SD) of that after giving a 500 mg dose and statistically indistinguishable. Similarly, these areas multiplied by the individual's terminal disposition rate constant (β) were statistically indistinguishable between 300 and 500mg doses (99.1±10.3%), giving no evidence of dose-dependence for theophylline kinetics at the levels below 15 μg/ml observed in these individuals. After an intravenous dose, a shortlived distribution phase (t1/2α) is sometimes seen. An a phase, however, is hardly discernible in over 250 profiles arising from oral doses administered during five single dose bioavailability studies. Almost all such profiles appear to follow single-compartment model predictions. With precautions to avoid a potential a phase, a terminal log-linear slope can be fitted by least squares analysis with a relative standard error in the slope determination almost always less than 6%. Covariance analysis confirms statistically that 39 of the 60 participating individuals varied in their β on the different occasions each was required to take a dose during the course of a crossover bioavailability trial. In one study, even though each individual was observed on only two occasions, 9 out of 12 showed statistically identifiable variation in β. Fluctuations in β of 60% can be seen. Changes of 30% or greater are common and can occur within 3 or 4 days. Thus real, large, and potentially frequent changes in β of theophylline have been identified in a majority of normal subjects. These changes do not appear to be confined to either sex, to smokers or nonsmokers, or to heavier or lighter individuals. No chronological pattern has, as yet, been recognized in the intraindividual variability in β.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics of hydrocortisone were examined following single intravenous doses of 5, 10, 20, and 40 mg hydrocortisone, as the sodium succinate salt, to healthy male volunteers. Endogenous hydrocortisone was suppressed by administration of 2 mg dexamethasone the night before hydrocortisone injection. Plasma samples obtained serially during 8 h after hydrocortisone injection were assayed by reversephase HPLC using a fixed wavelength (254 nm) ultraviolet detector. Initial concentrations of hydrocortisone in plasma were proportional to dose size. The subsequent decline in hydrocortisone concentrations was biphasic, and individual data sets were adequately described in terms of the pharmacokinetic two-compartment open model. Values of pharmacokinetic parameters were similar from the 5, 10, and 20 mg doses. Following the 40 mg dose, the overall elimination rate constant decreased, while the distribution volume, Vdss,and plasma clearance increased, in comparison with the values obtained from lower doses. Changes in the pharmacokinetics of hydrocortisone at high doses may be related to drug concentrationdependent changes in the binding of hydrocortisone to plasma proteins. Previously reported dosedependent changes in some pharmacokinetic parameters following oral hydrocortisone are attributed to absorption rather than distribution or elimination effects.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics of cefroxadin have been studied after the administration of single oral and intravenous doses to healthy volunteers. Cefroxadin was assayed by HPLC. The kinetics in plasma following i.v. administration were described by using a three-compartment model. An additional disposition phase was observed following oral administration that could not be detected after the low i.v. dose. The terminal half-life was 1.03 h. The apparent volume of distribution at the steady state was consistent with a diffusion of the antibiotic in all extracellular fluids. The AUCafter oral administration was linearly related to the dose. The urinary excretion amounted to 95% of the dose with virtually complete absorption of orally administered drug.

    The effect of saturable binding to plasma proteins on the pharmacokinetic properties of disopyramide (1982)

    Notes: Abstract Disopyramide exhibits saturable binding to plasma proteins in the therapeutic plasma concentration range. Because of this property, controversy exists in the literature regarding the pharmacokinetic properties of the drug. The purposes of this study were to reassess the pharmacokinetic properties of disopyramide in humans, taking into consideration both total and unbound concentrations and to use disopyramide as a model compound to study the effect of drug binding on the renal clearance of both total and unbound drug. A single intravenous dose of disopyramide (1.5 mg/kg) was administered to eight normal volunteers. Blood and urine samples were collected for 36h. Total concentrations of disopyramide in plasma and urine were determined by high pressure liquid chromatography. Binding of disopyramide to plasma proteins was determined by equilibrium dialysis. In all subjects, the binding of disopyramide to plasma proteins was saturable, but there were considerable differences in binding between subjects. The volume of distribution, total body clearance, and renal clearances of both total and unbound drug were calculated. Because only the total body clearance and renal clearance of unbound compound are not dependent upon unbound fraction (α), these are the only parameters which can be reported without qualification as to the concentration. The mean ± SD total body clearance of unbound drug in the eight subjects was 5.40± 2.80 ml/min/kg. About 50% of this was due to renal elimination. A statistically significant negative correlation of the renal clearance of total disopyramide with time was observed in seven of eight subjects, whereas a significant correlation between the renal clearance of unbound disopyramide and time was observed in only one subject. This suggests that the renal clearance of unbound disopyramide is independent of α, while the renal clearance of total disopyramide is dependent upon α.

    Notes: Abstract Interspecies variation in pharmacokinetics is considered and treated as a property and consequence of body size (allometry). Consequently, it is possible to reference (scale) pharmacokinetic parameters to the organism's individual anatomy, biochemistry, and/or physiology in such a manner that differences between species are nullified. Thus, in the mouse, rat, dog, monkey, and human, methotrexate plasma clearance always equals 133% of creatinine clearance and as such becomes invariant. Pharmacokinetic time (a variable in terms of chronological time) is shown to be a form of physiological time in which a pharmacokinetic event becomes the independent variable, e.g., disposition halflife. A relationship between pharmacokinetic time and body size is demonstrated. It is suggested that man's lesser quantitative ability to metabolize many drugs may be correlated with his enhanced longevity.

A two-compartment model adequately fitted the intravenous data. Renal clearance (85 ml min−1 contributed 65% to the total elimination of bumetanide irrespective of whether a model-dependent or model-independent method was used. Oral administration of bumetanide elicited a greater and a more prolonged pharmacological response than did intravenous bumetanide. An attempt is made to relate the pharmacokinetics of the drug to its pharmacodynamics.

    Notes: Summary Natural senescence of the root cortex was assessed by nuclear staining, for cultivars and chromosome substitution lines of spring wheat known to differ in (1) susceptibility to common root rot, (2) total rhizosphere populations and (3) ability to support growth of a free-living nitrogen-fixing bacterium. Together, three root rot susceptible wheat lines showed significantly more cortical senescence than did three resistant lines; the susceptible lines also support larger rhizosphere populations. The wheat line that supports growth of a nitrogen-fixing bacterium showed significantly less cortical death than did any other line. Substitution of chromosome pairs 5B or 5D between the parent cultivars Rescue and Cadet substantially altered the amount of root cortex death, which is thus genetically determined. It is suggested thatCochliobolus sativus and other weak parasites benefit from early natural senescence of the root cortex, and that the degree of susceptibility or resistance of wheat lines to common root rot is at least partly determined by differences in cortical senescence.

Plants grown in sand or hydroponic culture were transferred to solutions that contained42K,45Ca and32P for 24 h, then dried, ashed and digested in 6M HCl. To distinguish radiation emitted by42K,45Ca and32P plant digests were counted on two channels of a liquid scintillation counter immediately and 7 days later, after the decay of42K radiation. Plants infected byGaeumannomyces graminis took up and translocated less K, Ca and P to their shoots than uninfected plants. Other root-infecting fungi had little effect on uptake of these ions.

    Notes: Summary We report a study of the mechanism by which the response of plants to waterlogging can be modified by soil temperature. Wheat was grown initially in well-aerated soil in a controlled environment room before the soil was flooded with aerated, deionized water. The soil temperature was maintained constant in the range 6–18°C while the air temperature was at 14°C. Waterlogging damage was greater in plants at the higher soil temperatures when the plants were compared at the same chronological age. However, when compared at the same growth stage, the response to soil temperature was little differenti.e. plants subjected to waterlogging for a long time at low soil temperatures exhibited a similar reduction in growth and other properties as those subjected briefly at higher temperatures. The concentration of dissolved oxygen in the soil solution declined rapidly at all temperatures, being almost zero after 36 h waterlogging. Temperature affected rates of change of the concentrations of dissolved carbon dioxide, ethylene, nitrous oxide, nitrite, nitrate, calcium and potassium. The importance of soil-and plant-determined properties in the waterlogging response of plants at different temperatures are discussed.

    Notes: Summary Nuclear and cytoplasmic staining methods were used to study natural senescence of the root cortex and coleoptile of wheat and barley seedlings grown in glasshouse conditions. Coleoptiles of barley senesced more slowly than those of wheat, paralleling the known difference in rates of root cortex senescence in these cereals. The coleoptiles and root cortices of both cereals senesced more slowly in shaded than in unshaded conditions, but infection of the shoots of barley byErysiphe graminis had little effect on root cortex senescence. The results are discussed in relation to infection by root- and foot-rot fungi. Previous reports on the effects of illumination on take-all infection (Gaeumannomyces graminis) are explained. It is suggested that natural senescence of the coleoptile might affect establishment of infection by the eyespot fungus,Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides, either directly or through the activities of competing microorganisms.

    Notes: Summary A study conducted in pots to evaluate the effect of different Mg/Ca ratios (2, 4, 8 and 16) and electrolyte concentrations (20 and 80 meq/l) at SAR 10 in irrigation water on the nutrient uptake and yield of wheat crop in two soils revealed that the average grain and dry matter yields of wheat decreased significantly with an increase in Mg/Ca ratio in irrigation water, but the magnitude of decrease was greater at higher electrolyte concentration than at lower electrolyte concentration. The concentration of Na in both straw and grain of wheat increased and that of K decreased with an increase in Mg/Ca ratio and electrolyte concentration of irrigation water, which led to higher Na/Ca and Na/K ratios in the plant. Further, the concentration of Ca and Mg both in straw as well as in grain increased with increasing electrolyte concentration of the irrigation water. An increasing proportion of Mg in saline irrigation water resulted in decreased concentration of Ca and increased concentration of Mg in both straw and grain of wheat crop. It was also noticed that the increasing proportion of Mg over Ca in the poor quality irrigation water increased the P content of both straw and grain of wheat crop.

The latter increased the utilization of both native as well as applied copper but more that of applied. It also minimised the adverse effect of applied phosphorus on copper utilization. Phosphorus at the rate 45 ppm had the tendency of decreasing copper uptake by wheat if applied without nitrogen or with its low level.

The strains of Klebsiella enhanced dry wt., chrorophyll and nitrogen content, and 1000 grain weight. Grain yield in inoculated plants varied between 19.9 and 25.09 quintals ha−1 against 24.34 quintals with urea. Best results were obtained with KUP4 which when applied at half dose was as effective as 52.5 kg Urea-N ha−1. Azotobacter and Derxia only slightly improved growth and nitrogen content of grain or straw.

    Notes: Abstract Soil samples from a long term field experiment, to study the K depletion pattern, were analysed for K. The values of supply parameters pK−1/2p (Ca+Mg) and free energy δG r 0 were calculated using the data on water soluble and exchangeable cations. Correlation coefficient values between pK−1/2p (Ca+Mg) vs. total K removed, K removal by pearl millet in 1980 and soil available potassium were positive and statistically significant. This indicated that these soils have reached the stage where they would start responding to potassium application. Also, negative but significant correlation of δG r 0 with pK−1/2p (Ca+Mg) and available K, were found. δG r 0 values were positive indicating the affinity of such soils for K and the values, for K fertilized plots were lower in comparison to plots where no K was applied. pK−1/2p (Ca+Mg) parameter was found to be a better measure of K availability over δG r 0 due to either fixation of K or greater contribution of nonexchangeable K fraction towards plant utilized K.

    Notes: Summary The study was conducted in a greenhouse and under field conditions. In the greenoouse, barley was grown to maturity in pots on a sandy soil which contained 80 and 120 meq/l of chloride and sulphate dominant salts in its saturation extract, to which 0, 10, 25 and 50 ppm P were added. In the field study, wheat was grown on loamy sand soils having 0, 25, 50 and 75 kg/ha added P levels and irrigated with either Cl- or SO4-dominant saline waters (EC=15−19 mmhos/cm). The results of the greenhouse study indicated that at maturity barley straw and grain yield was significantly increased by 50 ppm of added P both on the non-saline control and the Cl-treatments. However, 25 ppm P was optimal on the SO4-treatments. The Cl content of plants was significantly decreased and S was increased with the increase in the P content of soil. A synergistic relation between the S and P content of barley shoots was observed. In the field study wheat grain yield responded significantly to P applications upto 50 kg/ha level on the Cl-site and there was no response to applied P on the SO4-site, although the former contained more Olsen's P than the latter. The results suggested that P requirement of wheat and barley was greater on Cl- than on SO4-salinity.

    Notes: Summary Studies revealed that the application of fertilizer nitrogen brought a significant increase in grain and straw yield of wheat. The significant effect was also noticed on such yield contributing characters like number of effective tillers per metre row length, spike length, and number of grains per spike. The increase of nitrogen level from 40 kg/ha to 80 kg/ha also brought a significant increase in yield and yield contributing characters. The application of entire dose of nitrogen at the time of sowing was as good as its split application. The application of nitrogen also influenced the nitrogen concentration of grains whereas, the other treatments did not influence the nitrogen concentration in grains or straw. The nitrogen treatments did not influence the moisture content of soil. The application of mulch or mulch+Kaolin resulted in significantly higher content of soil moisture in 0–15 cm soil depth as compared to control or Kaolin spray alone which was simultaneously reflected in yield and yield contributing characters.

    Notes: Summary Three wheats and one triticale were grown, up to flowering stage, in pots on calcareous soil adjusted to a range of salinities (S1=3.5, S2=6, S3=8.5, and S4=11 mmhos/cm, 20°C, soilpaste extract) by adding solution consisting of 3∶2∶1 of Na-, Ca- and Mg chlorides in chemical equivalent amounts. Moisture in the pots was kept at 100% (W1), 40% (W2) and 20% (W3) of the available water. The vegetative growth, nitrogen and phosphate were affected by S and W treatments, chloride was affected only by S. The interaction S×W affected only dry weight. Varietal effect was observed between wheat as a group and triticale. Multiple quadratic regression equations of these properties on salinity and water revealed that the higher the available water the wider the range of tolerable salinity. Triticale was relatively more tolerant to water stress. Salinity increases Cl and decreases N, whereas water stress enhances N accumulation to a certain extent. However, in triticale at S3 and S4 the effect of water stress on N was overshadowed by the excessive salinity. This did not occur for the wheat (Florence). P trends were described. R2 for P was low (0.7435–0.3603) which made interpretations rather difficult.

    Notes: Summary Aspects of selection for yield and harvest index were investigated by simulating selection using data from random pedigreed F2, F3, F4 and F5 derived lines from two crosses grown in plots at two sites over two years. Improvement in yield through selection was obtained when the response was measured at the same site and in the same year as the selection. Selecting the best 10 per cent of F2 to F4 derived lines gave F5 derived lines that outyielded random selections by 19 to 53 per cent for one cross and 5 to 23 per cent for the second cross. These lines were 41 to 50 per cent better than the mid-parent in one cross, but were less than the mid-parent in the other cross. However, the response to selection when measured in a different year was little better than random selection. The effect of different sites also reduced the effectiveness of selection. Selection of harvest index in early generations for improvement of yield was ineffective when response was measured at the same site in the same year, or in different years. Contrary to some theoretical proposals, the same improvement in yield was obtained by selecting in early or late generations. While high yielding genotypes may be lost by delaying selection, this is counteracted by the better predictive value of late generations due to their greater homozygosity and homogeneity.
