Abstract
The amount of drug consumption caused by a specific drug-metabolizing enzyme and/or the amount of the resulting metabolite(s) is measured by chromatography with an aqueous mobile phase under temperature control using a packing material whose surface is coated with a polymer having a hydration force varying in the temperature range of 0° C. to 80° C. This system enables proper evaluation of drug-metabolizing capacity through simple means without adversely affecting the environment.
