The excretion in urine of four insecticidal carbamates and their phenolic metabolites after oral administration to rats. 1975

F van Hoof, and A Heyndrickx

4 insecticidal carbamates: 3-methyl, 5-isopropylphenyl N-methyl-carbamate (Promecarb), 4-methylthio, 3,5 dimethylphenyl N-methylcarbamate (Mesurol), 4-dimethyl-amino, 3,5 dimethylphenyl N-methylcarbamate (Zectran), and 4-benzothienyl N-methyl-carbamate (Mobam) were orally administered to male Wistar rats. The excretion of the unchanged products was followed in 24 hrs urine collections. The corresponding phenols of the different carbamates could be identified as metabolites by gas-chromatography-mass spectrometyr. These metabolites were quantified afterward by gas-liquid chromatography. In all cases only minor quantities of unchanged products and metabolites were excreted in the urine over the 48 hrs after administration.

D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001711	Biotransformation	The chemical alteration of an exogenous substance by or in a biological system. The alteration may inactivate the compound or it may result in the production of an active metabolite of an inactive parent compound. The alterations may be divided into METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE I and METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE II.
