The occurrence of two hepatic microsomal sites for amobarbital hydroxylation
Amobarbital metabolism in human liver and in rat liver, lung, kidney, and small intestine was measured in vitro using thin-layer chromatography (TLC) for separation of metabolites generated from incubation with [2-14C]amobarbital.

Implications on Memory of Partial Filling During the Sodium Amobarbital Test
Milner, Branch, and Rasmussen (1962) first proposed evaluating memory during the sodium amobarbital (WADA) test. Milner hypothesized that people who demonstrated transient amnesia after injection ipsalateral to the seizure focus would be at risk for ...

Effects of salicylamide on absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of amobarbital and pentobarbital [PDF]
Effects of simultaneously administered salicylamide (SAM) on absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of amobarbital (AMB) and pentobarbital (PEB) were studied. Absorption of AMB from the stomach was depressed by simultaneously administered SAM,

Effect of amobarbital on the course of human dark adaptation
Following light adaptation to a luminance of 120 mL for 5 minutes, absolute thresholds for a centrally fixated, 7-degree test field in 'white' light were measured during the course of 30 minutes' dark adaptation.
