[Biotransformation of the lipoxygenase inhibitor 2-hydroxy-5-methyl-laurophenone-oxime (FLM 5011)].

2-Hydroxy-5-methyl-laurophenone-oxime (FLM 5011, 1) is an inhibitor of the lipoxygenase with antiinflammatory and antiallergic actions. The studies on the biotransformation using in vivo investigations and in vitro test systems resulted in finding of at least eight metabolites. Four of these compounds have been detected and identified in urine and faeces after p.
