- Details on study design:
- The pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of N-methyldiethanolamine were study in Fischer 344 rats after a single intravenous dose (50 or 500 mg/kg bw).
One day prior to dosing, animals had an indwelling jugular vein cannula implanted by a modification of the method of Harms and Ojeda and then acclimated to individual Roth-type glass metabolism cages. For the intravenous dosing study four male rats per group were given 50 or 500 mg/kg bw [14C] MDEA (10 μCi ) via the cannula at a dose volume of 2 mL/kg, and held for 72 h in metabolism cages.
Urine, feces, and expired 14CO2 were collected at various intervals up to 72 h postdosing from animals held in individual metabolism cages. Blood was collected via the jugular cannula, except for the last sample, which was by cardiac puncture.
The amounts of radioactivity in various samples were measured by liquid scintillation spectrometry. Unchanged MDEA concentrations in the plasma and urine were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography in conjunction with an in-line radioactivity monitor.
Results and discussion
Toxicokinetic / pharmacokinetic studies
- Details on distribution in tissues:
- Distribution of MDEA was relatively uniform throughout the major organs, with the highest concentrations being in the liver and kidney.
- Details on excretion:
- The predominant excretion route for MDEA was in the urine. Urinary excretion of MDEA was slow. Metabolites constituted the major fraction in urine, indicating that metabolism plays an important role in MDEA elimination.
Metabolite characterisation studies
- Details on metabolites:
- MDEA was substantially metabolised. Metabolism could be saturated at high dosages since nonlinear kinetic behavior was observed in rats dosed i.v. with 500 mg/kg bw.
