title: Tissue distribution of radioactivity from ochratoxin A-14C in rats.
abstract: Examination of the distribution of radioactivity in rat tissues during the first 24 hr after administration of ochratoxin A-14C demonstrated maximum accumulation in stomach and kidney. The highest counts were observed in stomach, lung, kidney, thymus, spleen and heart during the first 6 hr after treatment, whereas the brain, liver muscle, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and cecum exhibited the greatest counts at 18 hr after toxin exposure.
