| Bioactivity | Benserazide-d3 (hydrochloride) is the deuterium labeled Benserazide hydrochloride. Benserazide hydrochloride (Serazide) is commonly used in Parkinson's disease and is an inhibitor of peripheral aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC)[1]. |
| 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]. |
