Notes:
An alternative method based on linear systems analysis is presented for the analysis of concentration-time data for the enantiomers of the 2-arylpropionic acids. This approach uses deconvolution to estimate the rate and extent of chiral inversion with respect to time, assuming linear pharmacokinetics and time invariance, without the need for complicated modelling procedures. Application to data for the chiral inversion of ibuprofen in the rat indicates that this approach provides a valid alternative to previous procedures for the analysis of chiral inversion data. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
