Distribution of blood and tissue concentrations in rats by inhalation exposure to 1,2-dichloroethane

Abstract: The compound 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) is a ubiquitous environmental contaminant. The primary route of exposure of humans to DCE is inhalation of its vapor. The present investigation was undertaken to determine the distribution and accumulation of DCE in the blood, lung, liver, brain, kidney and abdominal fat of rats during and after inhalation exposure. Male rats were exposed to 160 ppm (v/v) of DCE vapor for 360 min and the concentrations of DCE in the blood and tissues during the inhalation exposure period a… Show more

“…Thus, we cannot precisely compare with the doses selected for our in vitro study with human exposure levels. However, according to results from a previous study (Take et al, ), the 1,2‐DCE concentration in the blood of rats exposed to 160 ppm 1,2‐DCE (650 mg m −3 ) was approximately 40 μ m . Moreover, concentrations of 1,2‐DCE in rat livers were greater than in the plasma, suggesting that 1,2‐DCE enrichment may occur in the liver.…”

“…As an easily volatile solute, the main route of occupational exposure is inhalation through the respiratory route. 2,6,7 However, little is known about the mechanisms underlying DCE induced dysfunction of the kidney. 1,2 To date, DCE exposure has been proved to have obvious toxic effects on the brain, liver, and kidney.…”
