title: Disposition of lypophilized (methylmethacrylate-14C, 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate, butylacrylate) nanoparticles in rats and their effect on zoxazolamine paralysis time.
abstract: The fate of lyophilized (methylmethacrylate-14C, 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate, butylacrylate) nanoparticles was studied in male Wistar rats after p.o. administration. It was found that at least 4% of the dose of 14C was absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract after a single dose with these nanoparticles. Some radioactivity (less than 0.15% of dose) was found 7 d after administration in lung, spleen and liver. As expected excretion of the label was predominated via the feces. Ten d of p.o. treatment of rats with lyophilized nanoparticles (1 g/kg of body weight) was shown to prolong significantly zoxazolamine paralysis time. This result suggests that lyophilized nanoparticles decreased elimination of zoxazolamine.
