Artemether-d3 is a deuterium-labeled version of Artemether, an antimalarial drug used to treat resistant strains of falciparum malaria. Deuteration, the incorporation of stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements into drug molecules, is largely used as tracers for quantitation during drug development and has the potential to influence the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs.
- Application as a tracer.
- Internal standard for quantitative analysis.
- High purity.
- Stable isotope.
