Blood plasma binding of acebutolol and diacetolol in man.
1 Acebutolol or diacetolol were added to fresh human plasma in varying concentrations and their extent of binding at 25 degrees C measureed by an equilibrium dialysis technique. 2 The extent of binding for both compounds was shown to be very low, being 11-19% for acebutolol and 6-9% for diacetolol. 3 Partition coefficients were measured in an n- octanol/phosphate buffer (0.05M, pH 7.4) solvent system. For a cebutolol, P = 0.62 and for diacetol, P = 0.08. 4 The very low plasma binding is in accord with the hydrophilic partition coefficients of these compounds.
