| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Biological Activity]
L-Eflornithine (L-DFMO) is the enantiomer of Eflornithine. L-Eflornithine is an irreversible ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) inhibitor with KD of 1.3±0.3 μM and Kinact of 0.15±0.03 min-1. | [in vivo]
The more potent L-Eflornithine is present at much lower concentrations in both plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) than those of the D-Eflornithine. The plasma concentrations of L-Eflornithine are on average 52% of the D -enantiomer concentrations. The typical oral clearances of L-Eflornithine and D-eflornithine are 17.4 and 8.23 liters/h, respectively. | [target]
