Abstract
Background: CB-1 is a novel compound evaluated in Sprague Dawley rats to assess its acute oral safety and pharmacokinetic disposition.
Objectives: To determine the short-term oral toxicity of CB-1 and characterize its pharmacokinetic parameters.
Methods: Acute oral toxicity was tested at doses up to 100 mg/kg. For pharmacokinetics, six rats received a single 100 mg/kg oral dose. Plasma samples were analyzed using a polar C18 column and quantified by LC - MS/MS monitoring the 490.063→262.00 m/z transition.
Results: No mortality occurred at 100 mg/kg, indicating acceptable acute safety. CB-1 reached a peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of 4324.24 ng/mL at 1 h (Tmax1). Pharmacokinetic analysis revealed an apparent clearance (Cl/F) of 3.6 L/h, elimination half-life (t1/2) of 7.86 h, and volume of distribution (Vd/F) of 40 L. A secondary plasma concentration peak at 8 h (Tmax2) suggested enterohepatic recirculation.
Conclusions: CB-1 demonstrated short-term oral safety with rapid absorption, relatively low clearance, and prolonged systemic exposure, likely influenced by enterohepatic recirculation.

期刊介绍:
Reliable data obtained from selective, sensitive and reproducible analysis of xenobiotics and biotics in biological samples is a fundamental and crucial part of every successful drug development program. The same principles can also apply to many other areas of research such as forensic science, toxicology and sports doping testing.
The bioanalytical field incorporates sophisticated techniques linking sample preparation and advanced separations with MS and NMR detection systems, automation and robotics. Standards set by regulatory bodies regarding method development and validation increasingly define the boundaries between speed and quality.
Bioanalysis is a progressive discipline for which the future holds many exciting opportunities to further reduce sample volumes, analysis cost and environmental impact, as well as to improve sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, efficiency, assay throughput, data quality, data handling and processing.
The journal Bioanalysis focuses on the techniques and methods used for the detection or quantitative study of analytes in human or animal biological samples. Bioanalysis encourages the submission of articles describing forward-looking applications, including biosensors, microfluidics, miniaturized analytical devices, and new hyphenated and multi-dimensional techniques.
Bioanalysis delivers essential information in concise, at-a-glance article formats. Key advances in the field are reported and analyzed by international experts, providing an authoritative but accessible forum for the modern bioanalyst.
