Details on distribution in tissues:
4 hours after the intraperitoneal injection of 300 mg test substance the Diphenyl-cresyl-phosphate level in blood was 0.3 +/- 0.2 µg/g. After 24 hours the level was below the detection limit (0.2 µg/g). In the liver the concentrations after 4 hours were 45.8 +/- 28.1 µg/g tissue and after 24 h 1.7 +/- 2.5 µg/g.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

In a toxicokinetic study male Wistar rats (250 -300g) were injected intraperitoneally with 75, 150 or 300 mg/kg of a commercial triaryl phosphate preparation (Disflamoll DPK/25E, Bayer AG, F.R.G.) which was analysed to contain approximately 35% of triphenyl phosphate, 45% of cresyl diphenyl phosphates, 18% of dicresyl phenyl phosphates and 2% of tricresyl phosphates, in olive oil. The animals were decapitated 4h, 24 h, 1 week or 2 weeks after the injections and their brain, blood, liver, kidneys, glutea muscle and tail nerve samples were taken at autopsy.

4 hours after the intraperitoneal injection of 300 mg test substance the Diphenyl-cresyl-phosphate level in blood was 0.3 +/- 0.2 µg/g. After 24 hours the level was below the detection limit (0.2 µg/g). In the liver the concentrations after 4 hours were 45.8 +/- 28.1 µg/g tissue and after 24 h 1.7 +/- 2.5 µg/g.
