Ki values for inhibition of 1,3-dimethyluric acid formation from theophylline and inhibition of 1′- and 4-hydroxylation of midazolam in rat hepatocytes and hepatic microsomes

Mean data of three preparations ± S.D. are shown. Each preparation was studied with three substrate concentrations over a range of inhibitor concentrations.
