- Sex:
- male
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- Rats whose weights were 100 to 125 g after a fasting period of 24 hours were used.
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- not specified
- Details on exposure:
- Rats were fasted for 24 hours. A known amount of the test substance was introduced by stomach tube.
- Duration and frequency of treatment / exposure:
- Single oral dose
Doses / concentrations
- Dose / conc.:
- 141 other: mg (up to 775 mg)
- No. of animals per sex per dose / concentration:
- 7-10 males per timepoint
17 rats were used for controls - Details on dosing and sampling:
- The test substance was introduced to male rats via stomach tube and after the desired interval of time, the animals were killed with chloroform. The entire gastrointestinal tract was exposed, ligated at each end, and removed. The tract was split open and the contents were washed out with several portions of hot water into a volumetric flask of 100 cc capacity. After cooling, 5 cc of 10% sodium tungstate and a like amount of 0.66 N sulfuric acid were added, the contents of the flask were diluted to the mark with water, and the precipitated proteins were filtered off. The filtrates were used for the determination of the amount of unabsorbed substance. One group of 17 rats served as controls for determining the normal reduction values of the contents of the gastrointestinal tract after a 24 hour fast. Most of the rats used for the determination of the absorption coefficient were used also for glycogen estimations. Therefore, after removal of the gastrointestinal tract from 5 to 10 minutes were needed for the preparation of the tissues for glycogen analysis. The gastrointestinal tracts as removed from the animals were placed in covered beakers and kept in the ice box until all rats for that day had been killed. When this procedure was followed, analysis of the gastrointestinal contents was begun within 1.5 to 2 hours after the death of the rat. In the glycogen determinations, the glucose formed by the hydrolysis of glycogen was estimated and a factor was used for the conversion of glucose into glycogen.
Results and discussion
Main ADME results
- Type:
- absorption
- Results:
- The absorption coefficient decreased with the increased duration of the period of absorption. No significant absorption of the test substance occurred after the 1st hour.
Toxicokinetic / pharmacokinetic studies
- Details on absorption:
- The absorption coefficient of the test substance decreased with the increased duration of the period of absorption; i.e., absorption coefficients (mg per 100 g of rat per hour) of 41, 20, and 12 for 1-, 2-, and 3-hour absorption periods, respectively. The absolute amount of test substance absorbed per 100 g of rat was nearly constant in all the periods of absorption regardless of the duration of absorption, 41, 40, and 36 mg, respectively. This suggests that no significant absorption of test substance occurred after the first hour. After oral administration of glucose in mixture with the test substance, glucose was well absorbed from the gastrointestinal canal as when glucose was fed alone. This is believed to indicate that the poor absorption of the test substance is not to be ascribed to any toxic effects of the test substance fed. In phlorhizinized rats, the rate of absorption of the test substance was decreased to about 50% of the normal value. No evidence was obtained that under the experimental conditions, oral administration of the test substance resulted in a deposition of glycogen in the liver or that the test substance was superior to xylose as a precursor of glycogen.
