Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Cytochrome P450 2C9 Inhibition Assay (Amodiaquine)
Description:  The inhibition of cytochrome P450 2C8-isoenzyme catalysed deethylation of Amodiaquine by the test compound is assayed at 37° C. with human liver microsomes. All assays are carried out on a robotic system in 96 well plates. The final incubation volume contains TRIS buffer (0.1 M), MgCl2 (5 mM), human liver microsomes (0.05 mg/ml), Amodiaquine (1 uM) and the test compound at five different concentrations or no compound (high control) in duplicate (e.g. highest concentration 10-50 uM with subsequent serial 1:4 dilutions). Following a short preincubation period, reactions are started with the cofactor (NADPH, 1 mM) and stopped by cooling the incubation down to 8° C. and subsequently by addition of one volume of acetonitrile.
