Results and discussion

Toxicokinetic / pharmacokinetic studies

Details on absorption:

No radioactivity above background levels were detectable in blood.

Details on distribution in tissues:

No radioactivity above background levels were detectable in liver.

Details on excretion:

- No radioactivity above background levels were detectable in urine.
- Radioactivity detected in feces and cecum contents accounted for the entire orally administered dose (recovery: 104% of the administered dose).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Interpretation of results (migrated information): other: the test item was not absorbed by rats after oral exposure
The test item was not absorbed by rats after oral application.

Executive summary:

Radioactive labelled test item was applied to male Fischer rats by gavage. No test item was detected in blood, urine and liver during 8 hours following exposure. Radioactivity detected in feces accounted for the entire applied dose. These data indicate, that the test item is not absorbed by rats after oral application.
