a Tominaga et al. (2006).<br />

was lowest in ratsochimpanzeesom<strong>on</strong>keys following<br />

exposure through ei<strong>the</strong>r route. In most cases, bisphenol<br />

A was not detected in rat serum following oral administrati<strong>on</strong><br />

of <strong>the</strong> 10 mg/kg bw dose. In all species, higher<br />

bioavailability was observed with s.c. than oral dosing.<br />

In a subsequent report (Tominaga et al., 2006), <strong>the</strong>se<br />

authors noted that ELISA may overestimate bisphenol A<br />

c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s due to n<strong>on</strong>-specific binding. They reported<br />

measurements by LC-MS/MS in animals evaluated<br />

using <strong>the</strong> same study design [possibly <strong>the</strong> same<br />

specimens reported previously]. These results are<br />

summarized in Table 42. The authors proposed that<br />

primates, including humans, may completely glucur<strong>on</strong>idate<br />

orally-administered bisphenol A <strong>on</strong> its first pass<br />

through <strong>the</strong> liver <strong>and</strong> excrete it in <strong>the</strong> urine whereas<br />

bisphenol A remains in <strong>the</strong> rat for a more extended<br />

period due to enterohepatic recirculati<strong>on</strong>. They suggested<br />

that <strong>the</strong> rat may not be a good model for human<br />

bisphenol A kinetics.<br />

2.1.2.3 Metabolism: Informati<strong>on</strong> is arranged in this<br />

secti<strong>on</strong> according to species. In rats, study summaries are<br />

arranged in order of those providing general or routespecific<br />

informati<strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong> metabolites, specifics <strong>on</strong> organs<br />

or enzyme isoforms involved in metabolism, <strong>and</strong><br />

pregnancy-, sex-, or age-related effects <strong>on</strong> metabolism.<br />

Pottenger et al. (2000) examined <strong>the</strong> effects of dose <strong>and</strong><br />

route <strong>on</strong> toxicokinetics of bisphenol A in rats. Dispositi<strong>on</strong><br />

of bisphenol A <strong>and</strong> its metabolites in urine <strong>and</strong> feces is<br />

described in this secti<strong>on</strong>, while results of <strong>the</strong> toxicokinetics<br />

study are described in Secti<strong>on</strong> 2.1.2.2. Five adult F344<br />

rats/sex/group were dosed with<br />

14 C-bisphenol<br />

A (99.3% radiochemical purity)/n<strong>on</strong>-radiolabeled bisphenol<br />

A (99.7% purity) at doses of 10 or 100 mg/kg bw by<br />

oral gavage or i.p. or s.c. injecti<strong>on</strong>. Excreta were collected<br />

for 7 days. Samples were analyzed by HPLC or HPLC/<br />

electrospray i<strong>on</strong>izati<strong>on</strong>/MS. The percentage of radioactivity<br />

recovered from all groups was 84–98%. Fecal<br />

eliminati<strong>on</strong> represented <strong>the</strong> largest percentage of<br />

Birth Defects Research (Part B) 83:157–395, 2008<br />

199<br />

radioactivity in all exposure groups (52–83%). Eight peaks<br />

were identified in feces, <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> largest peak (representing<br />

86–93% of radioactivity) was for unchanged bisphenol A.<br />

Eliminati<strong>on</strong> of radioactivity through urine was B2-fold<br />

higher in females (21–34%) than males (13–16%) in all<br />

dose groups. Fourteen different peaks were identified in<br />

urine. It was estimated that radioactivity in urine was<br />

represented by bisphenol A m<strong>on</strong>oglucur<strong>on</strong>ide (57–87%),<br />

bisphenol A (3–12%), <strong>and</strong> bisphenol A sulfate (2–7%).<br />

Some differences were noted for retenti<strong>on</strong> of radioactivity<br />

following dosing by gavage (0.03–0.26%), i.p. injecti<strong>on</strong><br />

(0.65–0.85%), <strong>and</strong> s.c. injecti<strong>on</strong> (1.03–1.29%).<br />

Metabolites associated with bisphenol A exposure<br />

were examined in a sec<strong>on</strong>d study by Pottenger et al.<br />

(2000). Three rats/sex/dose/route/time point were<br />

dosed with 14 C-bisphenol A/n<strong>on</strong>-radiolabeled bisphenol<br />

A at 10 or 100 mg/kg bw by oral gavage or i.p. or s.c.<br />

injecti<strong>on</strong>. Rats were killed at 2 different time points<br />

following dosing, Tmax, <strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> time when bisphenol A<br />

c<strong>on</strong>centrati<strong>on</strong>s were no l<strong>on</strong>ger quantifiable. Times at<br />

which rats were killed were determined by data obtained<br />

during <strong>the</strong> first study. Plasma samples were pooled at<br />

each time period <strong>and</strong> examined by HPLC or HPLC/<br />

electrospray i<strong>on</strong>izati<strong>on</strong>/MS. Qualitative <strong>and</strong> quantitative<br />

differences were observed for parent compound <strong>and</strong><br />

metabolites in plasma following exposure through<br />

different routes. Following oral exposure, bisphenol A<br />

glucur<strong>on</strong>ide was <strong>the</strong> most abundant compound detected<br />

in plasma at both time periods (Cmax <strong>and</strong> time when<br />

parent compound was not quantifiable) <strong>and</strong> represented<br />

68–100% of total radioactivity. Following i.p. or s.c.<br />

exposure, unmetabolized bisphenol A was <strong>the</strong> most<br />

abundant compound at Tmax; levels of radioactivity<br />

represented by unmetabolized bisphenol A were 27–<br />

51% following i.p. exposure <strong>and</strong> 65–76% following s.c.<br />

exposure. Only 2–8% of radioactivity was represented by<br />

bisphenol A following oral exposure. Some compounds<br />

observed following i.p. or s.c. exposure were not
