The effect of protein binding on the disposition of cephalexin (CEX) and cofazolin (CEZ) was investigated in a simultaneous perfusion system of rat liver and kidney. In the present study, we used bovine serum albumin (BSA) or human serum albumin (HSA) as plasma protein to control the degree of perfusate protein binding of drugs. Total clearance (CL_t) of CEX perfused with BSA (0.70±0.27ml/min) was slightly smaller than that with HSA (0.89±0.08ml/min), corresponding to the unbound fraction of the drug in the perfusate plasma. On the other hand, CL_t of CEZ perfused with BSA (0.90±0.20ml/min) was significantly larger than that with HSA (0.32±0.10ml/min). The unbound fraction of CEZ to BSA (0.703±0.052) was much larger than that to HSA (0.253±0.017) and the clearance of the unbound drug did not differ significantly between two kinds of albumin perfusate (1.30±0.40ml/min for BSA and 1.26±0.40ml/min for HSA). These results suggest that plasma protein binding is an important factor determining the biliary clearance as well as the urinary clearance of drugs.
