Description

General description

Morphine-6-β-D-glucuronide is a primary plasma and urinary metabolite of the opiate analgesic morphine. Sold under trade names including MS Contin^®, Kadian^®, Oramorph^®, and Roxanol for pain relief, morphine is also a commonly abused recreational drug. This certified analytical reference standard is suitable for a variety of GC/MS or LC/MS applications from pain prescription monitoring and urine drug testing to clinical toxicology and forensic analysis.

Application

• Pharmacokinetics and Clinical Study Applications: A method involving liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantification of several analgesics, including Morphine-6-β-D-glucuronide, applied in a clinical study for determining neurological death in intensive care units (Jutras et al., 2020).
• Opioid Receptor Research: Research highlighted the higher efficacy of Morphine-6-β-D-glucuronide compared to morphine as a mu-opioid receptor agonist in the rat locus coeruleus, supporting its use in detailed opioid receptor studies (Osborne et al., 2000).
