The excretion and metabolism of neurotoxic 1,2-diethylbenzene (1, 2-DEB) was studied in male Sprague-Dawley rats after i.v. (1 mg/kg) or oral (1 or 100 mg/kg) administration of 1,2-diethyl[U-(14)C]benzene ([(14)C]1,2-DEB). Whatever the treatment, radioactivity was mainly excreted in urine (65-76% of

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
