metabolizované

Metabolizovaná is a term used in Czech and Slovak to indicate that a substance has undergone metabolism. It is the feminine singular past participle of the verb metabolizovat, and it agrees with feminine nouns such as látka, sloučenina, či molekula. In scientific writing, metabolizovaná describes compounds that have been transformed by metabolic processes, typically enzymatic biotransformation in living organisms, producing one or more metabolites.

In pharmacology and toxicology, identifying whether a compound is metabolizovaná helps differentiate the parent compound from its metabolites. For example, metabolizovaná sloučenina can differ in activity, toxicity, pharmacokinetics, or excretion compared with the original substance. The term emphasizes the completion of metabolism, in contrast to ongoing metabolic reactions or non-metabolizované substances.

Linguistically, metabolizovaná derives from metabolizovat, which itself comes from Greek metabole meaning change or transformation, via Latinized and Slavic forms. The form manifests in gender and number agreement: metabolizovaná (feminine singular), metabolizovaný (masculine singular), metabolizované (neuter or plural depending on noun). In usage, it is common in sentences like "metabolizovaná látka byla identifikována v moči," meaning the metabolized substance was identified in urine.
