Summary

This paper discusses how measuring enzyme activity in blood can help detect drug effects in preclinical studies. It focuses on choosing the right enzymes and timing blood samples to get useful information. The authors use examples from rat and beagle studies to show how enzyme levels can reflect drug-induced changes. They suggest that careful enzyme selection and sample timing improve diagnostic accuracy. The paper serves as a guide for using enzymology in preclinical safety evaluation.
