Fluorocarbon aerosol propellants XI: Pharmacokinetics of dichlorodifluoromethane in dogs following single and multiple dosing. 1977

S Niazi, and W L Chiou

A three-compartment open model was proposed for the disposition of dichlorodifluoromethane in dogs with average half-lives of 1.47, 7.95, and 58.5 min for the three disposition phases. This proposal is contrary to several studies that monitored blood levels for a shorter period. An analysis of the tissue compartment distribution following a single dose showed that about 1.5 hr was required to achieve pseudodistribution equilibration, following which more than 90% of the dose remaining in the body was retained in the tissue compartments. The pulmonary clearance and volumes of distribution were calculated considering the first-pass effect through the lungs. The volume of distribution after reaching pseudodistribution equilibrium was approximately 10 times the body weight in terms of the blood concentration, and about 68% of the propellant was cleared from the blood passing through the lungs in each cycle. Disposition of the propellant followed dose-independent kinetics after multiple dosing. No volatile metabolites were detected in the blood using GC.

D005466 Fluorocarbons Liquid perfluorinated carbon compounds which may or may not contain a hetero atom such as nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur, but do not contain another halogen or hydrogen atom. This concept includes fluorocarbon emulsions, and fluorocarbon blood substitutes. Perfluorinated and related polyfluorinated chemicals are referred to as PFAS and are defined as chemicals with at least two adjacent carbon atoms, where one carbon is fully fluorinated and the other is at least partially fluorinated.
