Bioactivity | Monoethyl phthalate-d4 is the deuterium labeled Monoethyl phthalate[1]. Monoethyl phthalate is a metabolite of diethyl phthalate. Monoethyl phthalate acts as a urinary biomarker of phthalates exposure indicating the risks of thyroid cancer and benign nodule[2][3]. |
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]. |
