DCVG (0.037 nmol/ml) and DCVC (0.0024 nmol/ml) are not shown here due to the sparseness of the measurements while Lash et al. (2006) reported DCVC of 0.009 nmol/ml in blood of rats after TCE treatment by oral gavage at 1970 mg/kg.
Dose in ref. (Lin et al., 2001) was estimated as follows: alveolar ventilation 2.7 L/hr/kg × concentration 0.537 mg/L (100 ppm) × exposure period 4 hr.
This study used three doses: 260 mg/kg, 660 mg/kg and 1970 mg/kg on female (f) and male (m) F344 rats, and assessed multiple time points. Although TCA in blood was below the LOD at any time point for 1970 mg/kg dosage, it was 0.124 nmol/ml (at 24 hr, female) and 9.67 nmol/ml (at 48 hr, female) for 660 mg/kg dosage; 15.8-18.2 nmol/ml (at 2-8 hr, female). The inconsistent dose-response relationship was also observed for DCVG in blood. Rats produced more DCVG between 2 and 48 hr for 263 mg/kg dosage than for 657 mg/kg; however, DCVG was detected about 0.01 to 0.08 nmol/ml between 4 and 48 hr for higher dosages, where females produce higher amounts.
Not reported at 2 hr (next available observation, 15 nmol/ml at 4 hr).
LOD on column imputed by an original method(Ketcha et al., 1996) due to lack of information.
LOD on column not reported. Limit of detection on sample-base were 4 nmol/ml of DCA and 15 nmol/ml of TCA.
