Results and discussion
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Executive summary:
The results indicated suggested that continued ingestion (30 -days via food) could result in liver and kidney damage. The major identified metabolites of o- and m-terphenyl are glucosiduronic acids and phenols. Para-terphenyl on the other hand was poorly absorbed and a large proportion of that substance was excreted in the feces.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
