title: Metabolism of linoleamides. II. Absorption, distribution, excretion and metabolism of N-[alpha-phenyl-beta-(p-tolyl)ethyl]linoleamide.
abstract: 1. Absorption, distribution, excretion and metabolism of (-)N-[alpha-phenyl-beta-(p-tolyl)ethyl][14C]linoleamide (14C-PTLA) were studied in rats and dogs. Faecal excretion of PTLA was studied in dogs and men by g.l.c. 2. 14C-PTLA (10 mg/kg) given orally to rats resulted in urinary and faecal excretion of radioactivity of 2 and 93%, respectively, by male rats and 8 and 87% by female rats in 48 h. Faecal excretion of PTLA in men was similar to that in rats. 3. Distribution of radioactivity in rats and dogs after oral administration of 14C-PTLA showed that a major part of the dose was not absorbed. 4. N-[alpha-phenyl-beta-(p-tolyl)ethyl]glutaric acid monoamide were detected in the urine of rats dosed orally with 14C-PTLA.
