Since norcotinine and 4-(3-pyridyl)-4-oxobutyramide (POBAM) are probable metabolites of nicotine and cotinine, it was of interest to investigate the further in vitro metabolism of these compounds. We now report our preliminary findings using rat microsomal preparations (induced and/or non-induced with

The time course of nicotine metabolite appearance in brain from 5 min-18 hr after subcutaneous administration of S-(-)-[3H-N-methyl]nicotine was determined. Results demonstrated that metabolite appearance in brain was greatest at 4 hr postadministration, whereas levels of nicotine were greatly diminished

An LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous quantification of nicotine, cotinine, trans-3'-hydroxycotinine and norcotinine in human plasma was developed and fully validated. Potential endogenous and exogenous interferences were extensively evaluated and limits of quantification were determined by decreasing analyte concentration. Analytical

An analytical procedure was developed and validated for the simultaneous identification and quantification of nicotine, cotinine, trans-3'-hydroxycotinine, and norcotinine in 0.5 mL of human oral fluid collected with the Quantisal oral fluid collection device.

Elimination parameters of [14C]nicotine in conscious rats receiving nicotine (0.3 mg/kg) either intravenously or orally were studied. The oral availability of unchanged nicotine, derived by comparison of the respective areas under the concentration vs time curves (AUC), was 89%, indicating
