Additional information

There are no specific studies available on the kinetics, metabolism and distribution of AKD in mammals, including humans. However, AKD is expected to be rapidly absorbed from the intestine due to its high lipophilicity (log Kow > 6). In an OECD 422 screening and a 90 day feeding study AKD caused effects in various organs, indicating a wide distribution in the body.

A recent Toxicokinetics study completed on structurally related AKD notified as a new chemical in the EU under Directive 92/32/EEC demonstrated that dermal absorption is very low. The full report can be supplied in confidence if required.
