Synthesis of acylglucuronides of drugs using immobilized dog liver microsomes octadecylsilica particles coated with phospholipid.

Immobilized dog liver microsome octadecylsilica (ODS) particles coated with phospholipid were developed for the synthesis of acylglucuronides of drugs. The phospholipid-coated ODS particles were readily prepared by stirring a solution containing L-alpha-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine with the ODS particles, in which the phospholipid was absorbed on the ODS surfaces by hydrophobic interaction between the acyl group of phospholipid and the otcadecyl group of the ODS particles. Similarly, the microsome-immobilized particles were readily prepared by stirring a buffer solution containing dog liver microsomes with the phospholipid-coated ODS particles, in which the microsomes were immobilized on the phospholipid-coated ODS particles by hydrophobic binding.
