Summary
AI-generated from the abstractMescaline in rabbit plasma follows a two-compartment open model after intravenous injection. Half-life times for the alpha and beta phases, velocity constants, and steady-state distribution volumes are reported for four subjects, measured using a highly specific and sensitive mass fragmentographic method.

Abstract
By means of a highly specific and sensitive mass fragmentographic method mescaline was measured in rabbit plasma samples, taken at various points after an i.v. injection. The pharmacokinetic behaviour conformed to the two-compartment open model. Half-life times of alpha and beta phases, velocity constants and steady-state distribution volumes of four subjects are reported.
