Kinetics of distribution and elimination of DDE in rats

Abstract: 1. Rats were given single i.v. doses of 14C-DDE, and total drug (14C) and unchanged DDE (g.l.c.) were measured for up to 14 days in blood, tissues, and excreta. The 14C recoveries amounted to 90.0 +/- 10.8 (SD) % dose. 2. DDE underwent redistribution from blood to liver, muscle, skin and, ultimately, adipose tissue. The tissue/blood concentration ratios were 6 for liver and muscle, 35 for skin, 400 for adipose tissue. Concentrations in blood and lean tissues declined biphasically with beta-half-lives of 8-12 d… Show more

“…This value contrasts with values of Ͼ6%, 53.03%, 50 to 70%, and 10 to 20%, respectively, for lipophilic compounds such as dieldrin, DDT (DDE), PCB, and TCDD (Hayes, 1974;Matthews and Tuey, 1980;Abraham et al, 1988;Mühlebach et al, 1991). Although elimination of these lipophilic compounds from adipose tissue was similar, relatively high residue of these compounds in adipose tissue might be the result of metabolic stability.…”

“…Residual 14 C in adipose tissue 7 days after administration of pyridalyl was 2% of the dose, in contrast to values for lipophilic compounds such as dieldrin, DDT (DDE), PCB, and TCDD of Ͼ6%, 53.03%, 50 to 70%, and 10 to 20%, respectively (Hayes, 1974;Matthews and Tuey, 1980;Abraham et al, 1988;Mühlebach et al, 1991). Pyridalyl has an ether bond that is easily cleaved, whereas dieldrin, DDT (DDE), and PCB are more resistant to degradation.…”

“…DDE has an approximate 400–450:1 adipose to blood partition coefficient in the rodent, thus we anticipated that the primary depot of DDE would be the adipose tissue (Muhlebach et al 1991; You et al 1999). The current data do indeed indicate that adipose tissue concentrations increase from 1438.7 ng/g at 7 days to 1906.2 ng/g at 21 days following DDE administration and these data support the role of adipose as the primary storage depot of DDE.…”

“…Although we see bioaccumulation of such lipophilic compounds as a problem, pyridalyl has a different nature. Residual 14 C in fat 7 days after administration of pyridalyl was 2% of the dose, but that of lipophilic compounds such as dieldrin, DDT (DDE), PCB, and dioxin was found to be Ͼ6, 53.03, 50 to 70, and 10 to 20%, respectively (Hayes, 1974;Matthews and Tuey, 1980;Abraham et al, 1988;Mühlebach et al, 1991). The difference may depend on metabolic stability.…”
