The functional activities of phase-II enzymes, including uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase (UDPGT), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and N-acetyltransferase (NAT) were evaluated in the presence of various concentrations of propofol (0.05-1.0 mmol litre-1), using 1-naphthol, 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and p-aminobenzoic acid as substrates respectively.

Whereas activity of amino sulfotransferase (substrate 2-naphthylamine) decreased continuously during the entire culture period, the activity of phenol sulfotransferase (substrate 1-naphthol) decreased only slowly.
To examine phase II metabolic potency, activities of N-acetyltransferases 1 and 2, of phenol and amino sulfotransferases, of glutathione S-transferases alpha, mu, pi and theta and of UDP-glucuronyltransferase were measured.

N-acetyltransferase (NAT) activity measured with p-aminobenzoic acid, a diagnostic substrate for human NAT-1, was stable and even higher during the culture period compared to freshly isolated cells.
A similar decline was also observed for UDP-glucuronyltransferase activities measured with 1-naphthol.
