Abstract

1 The clearance of dihydroartemisinin (DHA) in control and malaria-infected (MI) rats was investigated using the isolated perfused rat liver (IPRL) model and hepatic microsomal studies.2 In the recirculating IPRL, clearance of DHA was reduced from a mean (s.d.) of 8.2+/-1.8 mi min(-1) in controls (n=8) to 6.0+/-1.0 mi min(-1) in MI (n=8; P
