  • a Metabolites are assigned based on retention times of radioactive peaks and LC/MS analysis.

  • b Radioactive peaks are reported as a percentage of dose (% of the sample multiplied by % excretion).

  • c trace = <0.01% radioactivity and detected by LC/MS.

  • d N.D., not detected. Criteria are no discernible radioactive peak, <0.01% radioactivity, and not detected by LC/MS. N.A., not applicable.

  • e Others = uncharacterized peaks.
