It was shown that fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry could be used for direct characterization of these involatile, thermally labile metabolites. The quaternary ammonium-linked glucuronides of amitriptyline and imipramine were demonstrated to be present in urine from patients receiving therapeutic doses of these tricyclic antidepressants.}, issn = {0090-9556}, URL = {https://dmd.aspetjournals.org/content/11/3/221}, eprint = {https://dmd.aspetjournals.org/content/11/3/221.full.pdf}, journal = {Drug Metabolism and Disposition} }
