in each group were killed at 96 hr post-dosing. Maternal<br />

organs, 6 embryos or fetuses/dam (when possible), <strong>and</strong><br />

placentas were collected. Samples were analyzed for<br />

radioactivity <strong>and</strong> bisphenol A <strong>and</strong>/or bisphenol A<br />

glucur<strong>on</strong>ide by HPLC/liquid scintillati<strong>on</strong> spectrometry.<br />

In all groups, 90–94% of radioactivity was recovered.<br />

Eliminati<strong>on</strong> of bisphenol A <strong>and</strong> its metabolites is<br />

discussed in Secti<strong>on</strong> 2.1.2.4. At 96 hr following dosing,<br />

low percentages of <strong>the</strong> dose were present in carcass (B1–<br />

6%) <strong>and</strong> tissues such as brain, fat, liver, kidney, ovary,<br />

uterus, <strong>and</strong> skin. The <strong>on</strong>ly quantifiable data in placentas<br />

<strong>and</strong> fetuses at 96 hr were obtained in <strong>the</strong> GD 17 group,<br />

<strong>and</strong> those samples c<strong>on</strong>tained 0.01–0.07% of <strong>the</strong> bisphenol<br />

A dose. St<strong>and</strong>ard deviati<strong>on</strong>s for maternal <strong>and</strong> fetal<br />

tissues generally exceeded 50% of <strong>the</strong> mean. Study<br />

authors c<strong>on</strong>cluded that dispositi<strong>on</strong> of radioactivity was<br />

similar in pregnant <strong>and</strong> n<strong>on</strong>-pregnant rats.<br />

Toxicokinetic data obtained from plasma profiles are<br />

summarized in Table 24. The authors stated that <strong>the</strong>re<br />

was high inter-animal variability. The presence of two<br />

C max values was noted by <strong>the</strong> authors, <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong>y stated<br />

that it was <strong>the</strong> result of enterohepatic circulati<strong>on</strong> of<br />

radioactivity. Bisphenol A was not quantifiable in most<br />

plasma samples. Because bisphenol A glucur<strong>on</strong>ide<br />

represented most (B95–99%) of <strong>the</strong> radioactivity, plasma<br />

profiles for that metabolite were nearly identical to<br />

profiles for radioactivity.<br />

BISPHENOL A<br />

187<br />

A sec<strong>on</strong>d study was c<strong>on</strong>ducted by Dormoradzki et al.<br />

(2003) to measure bisphenol A <strong>and</strong> bisphenol A<br />

glucur<strong>on</strong>ide c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s in maternal <strong>and</strong> fetal tissues.<br />

Rats were gavaged with radiolabeled bisphenol A at<br />

10 mg/kg bw <strong>on</strong> GD 11, 13, or 16. Blood was collected<br />

over a 24-hr period. Five rats/group/time period were<br />

killed at 0.25, 12, <strong>and</strong> 96 hr post-dosing. Maternal blood<br />

<strong>and</strong> organs, yolk sacs/placentas, <strong>and</strong> embryos/fetuses<br />

were removed for measurement of bisphenol A <strong>and</strong><br />

bisphenol A glucur<strong>on</strong>ide. Yolk sacs/placentas <strong>and</strong><br />

fetuses were pooled at most time periods. Results are<br />

summarized in Table 25.<br />

At 0.25 hr following dosing, bisphenol A glucur<strong>on</strong>ide<br />

c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s in maternal plasma were similar in<br />

groups dosed <strong>on</strong> GD 11 <strong>and</strong> 13 but c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s were<br />

1.7–2 times higher in <strong>the</strong> group dosed <strong>on</strong> GD 16. At 12 hr<br />

post-dosing in all exposure groups, bisphenol A glucur<strong>on</strong>ide<br />

c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s in maternal plasma were reduced 7to<br />

11-fold from values observed at 0.25 hr. Levels of<br />

radioactivity in plasma were not sufficient for analysis at<br />

96 hr post-dosing. Bisphenol A was detected in maternal<br />

plasma at 0.25 hr post-dosing in rats that were exposed to<br />

a higher radioactive c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong> (0.5 mCi compared to<br />

0.2 mCi) <strong>on</strong> GD 16; bisphenol A c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s were<br />

26.5-fold lower than bisphenol A glucur<strong>on</strong>ide<br />

c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s.<br />

In animals dosed <strong>on</strong> GD 11, bisphenol A glucur<strong>on</strong>ide<br />

was <strong>on</strong>ly detected in yolk sac/placenta at 0.25 hr postdosing<br />

<strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong> was B17 times lower than<br />

<strong>the</strong> c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong> detected in maternal blood for <strong>the</strong><br />

same time period. With dosing <strong>on</strong> GD 11, bisphenol A<br />

glucur<strong>on</strong>ide was not detected in embryos <strong>and</strong> bisphenol<br />

A was not detected in yolk sac/placenta or embryos. In<br />

animals dosed <strong>on</strong> GD 13, bisphenol A glucur<strong>on</strong>ide was<br />

detected in yolk sac/placenta at 0.25 <strong>and</strong> 12 hr postdosing<br />

<strong>and</strong> c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s were 9–24-fold lower than<br />

those detected in maternal plasma for <strong>the</strong> same time<br />

period. Bisphenol A was also detected in yolk sac/<br />

placenta at 0.25 <strong>and</strong> 12 hr after dosing <strong>on</strong> GD 13 <strong>and</strong><br />

c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s were similar to those detected in <strong>the</strong><br />

blood of 2 dams. A lower c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong> of bisphenol A<br />

was detected in embryos of dams at 0.25 hr following<br />

dosing <strong>on</strong> GD 13, <strong>and</strong> bisphenol A was <strong>the</strong> <strong>on</strong>ly moiety<br />

detected in embryos. Following dosing <strong>on</strong> GD 16,<br />

bisphenol A glucur<strong>on</strong>ide <strong>and</strong> bisphenol A were detected<br />

in yolk sac/placenta at 0.25 <strong>and</strong> 12 hr post-dosing.<br />
