The aim of the current study was to investigate the metabolism of (-)-menthone by liver microsomes of humans. (-)-Menthone (1) was metabolized to (+)-neomenthol (2) (3-reduction) and 7-hydroxymenthone (3) by human liver microsomes. The metabolites formed were analyzed on GC and GC-MS. Kinetic analysis showed that K(m) and V(max) values for the metabolized (-)-menthone to respective (+)-neomenthol and 7-hydroxymenthone by liver microsomes of human sample HG70 were 0.37 mM and 4.91 nmol/min/mg protein and 0.07 mM and 0.71 nmol/min/mg protein.
