| Research Abstract |
Drugs(methamphetamine and 3, 4-methylenedioxymethamphetmaine) were administered to mice, and the effects of drugs on locomotor activity, body temperature and behavior were examined. Moreover, the organs(brain, liver and kidney) were removed from mice after drug administration and then drug distributions and drug concentrations in organs were measured by MALDI/imaging MS and LC/MS, respectively. Data obtained using the standardized method were integrated on a data sheet every drug. The increment of data sheets would be useful for the comparison of toxicity among drugs and the estimation of toxicity of novel drugs.
