Stereoselectivity has to be considered for pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic features of ketamine. Stereoselective biotransformation of ketamine was investigated in equine microsomesin vitro.Concentration curves were constructed over time, and enzyme activity was determined for different substrate concentrations using equine liver and lung microsomes. The concentrations of R/S‐ketamine and R/S‐norketamine were determined by enantioselective capillary electrophoresis. A two‐phase model based on Hill kinetics was used to analyze the biotransformation of R/S‐ketamine into R/S‐norketamine and, in a second step, into R/S‐downstream metabolites.In liver and lung microsomes, levels of R‐ketamine exceeded those of S‐ketamine at all time points and S‐norketamine exceeded R‐norketamine at time points below the maximum concentration. In liver and lung microsomes, significant differences in the enzyme velocity (Vmax) were observed between S‐ and R‐norketamine formation and betweenVmaxof S‐norketamine formation when S‐ketamine was compared to S‐ketamine of the racemate.Our investigations in microsomal reactionsin vitrosuggest that stereoselective ketamine biotransformation in horses occurs in the liver and the lung with a slower elimination of S‐ketamine in the presence of R‐ketamine. Scaling of thein vitroparameters to liver and lung organ clearances provided an excellent fit with previously publishedin vivodata and confirmed a lung first‐pass effect.
