The phenotyping of cytochrome P-450 in hepatic mivrosomes induced by phenytoin in the rats was carried out by using several monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against specific P-450 isozymes. Phenytoin (180 mg/kg) was administered intrapritoneally for three consecutive days to the male Sprague-Dawley rats(100-120g). Solid phase radio-immunoassay showed higher binding affinity of MAb PB 2-66-3 and PCN 2-13-1 to the microsomes from phenytoin treated rats than those to from untreated rats, which was comparable to the level in phenobarbital induced rat hepatic microsomes.
