  • N.D., not determined.

  • a [14C]MRL-C was administered to adult, male bile duct-cannulated animals at the doses indicated. Collection periods were 0 to 72 h (rats) and 0 to 120 h (dogs and monkeys). Dosing vehicles and the volume administered may be found under the Materials and Methods. Mean ± standard deviation (n = 3) or average (n = 2) values are listed.

  • b Total values include cage washes and cage wipes.
