| Abstract | Partition coefficients are required for developing physiologically based pharmacokinetic models used to assess the uptake, distribution, tabolism, and elimination of volatile chemicals in mammals. A gas-phase vial equilibration technique is presented for determining the liquid:air and tissue:air partition coefficients for low-molecular-weight volatile chemicals. This technique was developed from two previously described medium:air methods, relied solely on measurement of chemical concentration in the gas phase, and, compared to earlier work, extends the range of chemicals and tissues examined. Partition coefficients were determined with 0.9% saline, olive oil, and blood, liver, muscle, and fat tissues from rats for 55 compounds. Human blood:air coefficients were determined for 36 compounds and several blood:air values were also determined in the mouse and for one compound in the hamster. An approach is described for predicting the tissue solubilities of untested compounds based on oil:air and saline:air coefficients using regression analyses. A similar approach is used to model fat:air coefficients in terms of oil:air values and to model human blood: air coefficients in terms of rat blood:air coefficients. |
