Bioactivity | Anthracene-9-carboxylic acid-d9 is the deuterium labeled Anthracene-9-carboxylic acid[1]. Anthracene-9-carboxylic acid (9-Anthracenecarboxylic acid) is an anthracene derivative traditionally used to block and identify Ca2+-activated Cl- currents (CaCCs) in various cell types, like diverse smooth muscle cells, epithelial cells and salivary gland cells[2]. |
Invitro | Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1]. |
