Remarks A simple and sensitive method for determination of the O-demethylation activity of rat, dog, minipig, and human liver micrsomes toward paeonol using ultra-performance liquid chromatography with mass detection (UPLC-MS) has been developed. The method was successfully used to determine the kinetics of DHA activities toward paeonol in liver microsomes from different species. [Liu et al., Talanta 79: 1433–1440 (200)]
