The urinary excretion of mandelic acid administered intravenously to cats

The urinary excretion of mandelic acid administered intravenously to cats.

MANDELIc acid, when administered to animals, may be recovered almost quantitatively from the urine. Moreover, when mandelic acid appears in the body as the result of metabolic processes, it is supposed to be excreted without further change [Knoop, 1905; Dakin, 1922; Quick, 1928]. Neubauer [1909], Neubauer & Fischer [1910], Neubauer & Gross [1910] and Neubauer & Warburg [1910] claimed that after...

Urinary vanillyl-mandelic acid (VMA) excretion by chronically anaemic children.

Hypoxia has been regarded as one of the many factors stimulating augmented catecholamine biosynthesis (Vogt, 1960). Plasma levels of epinephrine and norepinephrine were found to be increased in newborns with the respiratory distress syndrome or placental insufficiency (Cheek, Malinek, and Fraillon, 1963). Infants with severe heart failure eliminate in the urine twice as much metanephrine, norme...

Tissue distribution and urinary excretion of intravenously administered chemically functionalized graphene oxide sheets.

The design of graphene-based materials for biomedical purposes is of great interest. Graphene oxide (GO) sheets represent the most widespread type of graphene materials in biological investigations. In this work, thin GO sheets were synthesized and further chemically functionalized with DOTA (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid), a stable radiometal chelating agent, by an e...

Kinetic disposition, urinary excretion and dosage regimen of subcutaneously administered levofloxacin in cross bred calves

The present study was conducted on five healthy male cross bred calves to study the kinetic dispositionand urinary excretion of levofloxacin following its single subcutaneous administration at the dose of4 mg.kg-1. The concentration of levofloxacin in plasma and urine samples was estimated by microbiologicalassay. Peak plasma level of levofloxacin (2.8 ± 0.3 μg.ml-1) was observed at 45 min and ...
