Journal of chromatography, 307(1), 121-127 (1984-04-13)
A gas chromatographic method was developed for the determination of the R- and S- enantiomers of the anticonvulsant, mephenytoin, and its N-demethylated metabolite, 5-phenyl-5- ethylhydantoin ( PEH ), in plasma and blood. Direct enantiomeric separation of mephenytoin and its internal

An investigation of the effects of the S-(+) and R-(-) enantiomers of 5-ethyl-5-phenylhydantoin as hypolipidemic agents was undertaken. The serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels were reduced approximately 40% by either oral or i.p. administration at 20 mg/kg.day of either enantiomer.

Male F344/NCr rats, 6 wk old, were fed 500 ppm of phenobarbital (PB) or equimolar doses of either 5-ethyl-5-phenylhydantoin (EPH) or 5,5-diethylhydantoin (EEH) in diet for 2 wk and hepatic cytochrome P-450-mediated alkoxyresorufin O-dealkylase and aminopyrine N-demethylase activities were determined.

Drug metabolism and disposition: the biological fate of chemicals, 26(8), 775-778 (1998-08-11)
We tested the ability of human liver microsomes (HLMs) and recombinant human cytochrome P450 (CYP or P450) isoforms to catalyze the N-demethylation of nirvanol-free (S)-mephenytoin [(S)-MP] in vitro. In mixed HLMs, the kinetics of (S)-MP N-demethylation suggested two contributing activities.
