In a previous study, it was shown that the neurotoxic compound 1,2-diethylbenzene (1,2-DEB) is mainly hydroxylated in the alkyl chain to give 1-(2'-ethylphenyl)ethanol (1,2-EPE) and excreted in urine of rats as two glucuronide compounds (GA1 and GA2). Some findings have

1. Biotransformation of 1,2-diethenylbenzene (1) in rat was studied. Five urinary metabolites were isolated by extraction of acid hydrolysed urine and identified by nmr and mass spectroscopy, namely, 1-(2-ethenylphenyl)ethane-1,2-diol (2) 2-ethenylmandelic acid (3), 2-ethenylphenylglyoxylic acid (4), 2-ethenylphenylacetylglycine (5) N-acetyl-S-[1-(2-ethenylphenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl]cysteine (6)

The bio-distribution of the neurotoxic 1,2-diethylbenzene (1,2-DEB) was studied in male Sprague-Dawley rats after intravenous administration of [(14)C] 1,2-DEB (1 mg kg(-1)). The highest concentrations of [(14)C] non-volatile metabolites, determined by whole-body auto-radiography, were in the nasal cavity, ethmoid turbinates

Diethylbenzene (DEB) is a moderately volatile, colorless liquid found in gasoline, kerosene, and fuel oils. Exposure to DEB has been shown to produce peripheral neuropathy in rats, and the ortho isomer of DEB (1,2-DEB) is generally believed to be the

Journal of applied toxicology : JAT, 11(4), 261-268 (1991-08-01)
The role of 1,2-diacetylbenzene (1,2-DAB) in the peripheral nerve toxicity of 1,2-diethylbenzene (1,2-DEB) was investigated in rats. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry identified 1,2-DAB in the urine samples of rats given 165 mg kg-1 1,2-DEB orally on four consecutive days. 1,2-DAB shared
