General description

Assayed in therapeutic drug monitoring to ensure patients remain within the drug′s therapeutic range, mycophenolic acid is an immunosuppressant drug and the active metabolite of the prodrug mycophenolate mofetil. This analytical standard is suitable for LC-MS/MS applications including therapeutic drug monitoring and other clinical or diagnostic applications.

Application


  • Targeted Inhibition in Gastrointestinal Toxicity: Mycophenolic acid is employed in targeted inhibition studies of gut bacterial β-glucuronidases to alleviate gastrointestinal toxicity caused by mycophenolate mofetil. This application is crucial for enhancing patient outcomes in immunosuppressive treatments, showcasing its value in pharmaceutical research (Xia et al., 2024).

  • Synergistic Immunosuppression Therapy: The solution′s use in combination with low dose systemic immunosuppression to sustain vascularized composite allograft survival highlights its potential in transplant medicine. This research underscores the critical role of mycophenolic acid in developing effective immunosuppressive protocols (Feturi et al., 2024).

  • Development of Genetic Markers: Mycophenolic acid′s biochemical properties are utilized in the development of genetic markers within Yarrowia lipolytica, demonstrating its importance in genetic engineering and biotechnological advancements (Zhu et al., 2024).

  • Fungicidal Compound Discovery: The compound is used to derive fungicidal hydrazide lead compounds from sinapic acid and mycophenolic acid, illustrating its application in agricultural biochemistry and the development of new antimicrobial agents (Fang et al., 2023).

Evaluation of LCMSMS Deuterium Scrambling in Clinically Significant Small Molecules

LC-MS/MS is a powerful tool that brings numerous benefits to the clinical sample analysis arena. However, due to the complexity of the instrumentation there are some unique challenges that also accompany these benefits. Even following sample extraction and cleanup, matrix effects from the samples can cause interferences or impact ionization efficiency.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
