Result/Effects NOAEL /<br />

LOAEL<br />

level of absorption low and independent of gender and dose<br />

distribution to most tissues<br />

elimination via expired volatiles (parent) or metabolized via<br />

urine and faeces<br />

rate of elimination of radioactivity in tissues was the same as<br />

from plasma except of fat<br />

small dose-related effect on elimination on ♀ rats (more<br />

expired at the high dose compared to lower doses) suggesting<br />

saturation of metabolism at high doses<br />

absorption and distribution mimicked single exposure results<br />

rate of elimination of radioactivity in tissues was the same as<br />

from plasma except of fat and lung<br />

small dose-related effect on elimination route on ♀,♂ rats<br />

(larger quantities eliminated via lung, decreased quantities<br />

eliminated via faeces, urinary excretion constant at high compared<br />

to low dose) suggesting compensation of saturation<br />

effects through induction after repeated exposure<br />

F-344 rats retained significantly higher amount of radioactivity<br />

(8.3+0.44%) than SD (5.9+0.26%)<br />

excretion of radioactivity was similar in both strains in urine,<br />

faeces and expired volatiles<br />

different concentration of radioactivity in fat over time<br />

F rats showed a higher amount of radioactivity present as<br />

metabolites as compared to D4<br />

kinetic difference suggest important biochemical differences<br />

leading to a decreased metabolism of D4 in female SP rats<br />
