  • HPLC method 1 (table 1) was used for all analyses. Residue amounts are expressed as percentages of total radioactivity recovered from the HPLC column. Recoveries were generally between 95 and 105%.

  • 4-a A group of eight fatty acid conjugates of 24-OH-MAB1a that eluted as a single peak.

  • 4-b A group of eight fatty acid conjugates of 24-OH-AB1a that eluted as a single peak.

  • 4-c Average ± SD from four excreta samples (1, 3, 6, and 7 days).

  • 4-d ND, not detected.

  • 4-e Values from a composite of all egg yolk specimens.

  • 4-f Liver with the highest TRR level.

  • 4-g Liver with the lowest TRR level.
