PCB 11 (3,3'-dichloro-biphenyl) is an emerging environmental contaminant that represents a public health concern. Here, we investigated the distribution of PCB 11 and its metabolites in mice exposed orally to PCB 11. PCB 11 tissue levels followed the rank order adipose > lung ∼ muscle > liver > brain > blood 4 h after PCB 11 exposure, which varied from the rank order predicted with a composition-based model. We detected hydroxylated and sulfate metabolites in the liver and sulfate and glucuronid ...[more]
