title: Biliary excretion and organ distribution of 14C radioactivity after 14C-2-ethylhexyl acrylate administration in rats.
abstract: Rats were intravenously administered (14C)-2-ethylhexyl acrylate at the dose 10 mg/kg or 50 mg/kg b. w. Biliary excretion of 14C-radioactivity was followed in 1-3 hour intervals within the first 24 hours after administration. The rats were then sacrificed and distribution of 14C-radioactivity was followed in some organs. Highest radioactivity was found in liver, less in the kidneys and the least in the brain. A significant increase of bile flow was observed. In the 24-hour intervals 2.2% of the dose was eliminated via bile at both dosages, most of it (83%) during the first 3 hours.
