Disposition and Metabolomic Effects of 2,2',5,5'-Tetrachlorobiphenyl in Female Rats Following Intraperitoneal Exposure.

Unlabelled: The disposition and toxicity of lower chlorinated PCBs (LC-PCBs) with less than five chlorine substituents have received little attention. This study characterizes the distribution and metabolomic effects of PCB 52, an LC-PCB found in indoor and outdoor air, three weeks after intraperitoneal exposure of female Sprague Dawley rats to 0, 1, 10, or 100 mg/kg BW. PCB 52 exposure did not affect overall body weight.
