Metabolic Handling of Perfluorooctanoic Acid in Rats
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1980 SummaryThe metabolic fate of perfluorooctanoic acid administered by stomach intubation to female rats was investigated. The nonionic fluorine level in the serum was increased 200-fold after administration of the dose but returned to baseline levels by 52.5 hr.
