  • a Metabolites are assigned based on retention times of radioactive peaks and LC/MS analysis.

  • b Metabolites are reported as a percentage of the total radioactivity eluted from the column.

  • c N.D., not detectable by LC/MS.

  • d trace = <0.2% radioactivity and detectable by LC/MS.

  • e M18a/b contained a and b isomers in approximately the same amounts.

  • f Other = unidentified peaks.

  • g Total is less than 100% because the remainder of the radioactivity is distributed in small amounts (<0.2%) in various fractions throughout the radiochromatogram.
