Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion

Toxicokinetic / pharmacokinetic studies

Details on absorption:
Intestinal absorption was found to be minimal based on the measurements of radioactivity from stomach/bowel and urine. At the 10mg/kg dose, 1.85% of the administered radioactivity was intestinally absorbed, and at the 50 mg/kg 2.01%.
Details on distribution in tissues:
The carcass and bones suggest that the test material may be bone-specific.
Details on excretion:
After oral administration of the test material, the largest amount of radioactivity was found in the faeces. The percentage excreted in the faeces is either not intestinally absorbed or intestinally absorbed and excreted as bile in faeces. In order to further investigate whether excretion is via bile a intravenous or subcutaneous application of test material is required.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The results suggest bone-specific bio-accumulation.
