Any other information on results incl. tables

48 h after a single oral administration of 100 mg/kg bw of o-chloronitrobenzene to rabbits, 

0.3 % of the administered dose was found in faeces as unabsorbed material which was completely reduced to the chloroaniline; 

in the urines collected each 24 h for 48 h the following metabolites of o-chloronitrobenzene were detectable (expressed as per-
centages of the administered dose): 

- ether glucuronide (42 %)

- ethereal sulphate (24 %)

- mercapturic acid (7 %)
- free chloroaniline (9 %) 

(total accounted for: 82 %)
