Differential tissue distribution of various polybrominated biphenyls of Firemaster FF-1 in male rats.

Gas chromatography with an electron-capture detector was used to identify the major components of the polybrominated biphenyls (PBB's) in Firemaster FF-1. The distribution and clearance of the PBB's in rat whole blood, grey and white matter, cerebellum, heart, kidney, liver, spleen, lung, jejunum, testes, and subcutaneous fat from the inguinal region were determined at various times after a single dose of 10 mg/kg of Firemaster FF-1 given orally. Peak blood levels of PBB occurred within 4 hr whereas levels in inguinal subcutaneous fat peaked 7--14 days after the single oral dose. Concentrations in other tissues peaked usually within 12 hr and showed complex logarithmic decline over time. 2,2',4,5,5'-Pentabromobiphenyl (PnBBa) was cleared much more rapidly from the rat than 2,3',4,4',5-pentabromobiphenyl (PnBBb) or any of the higher molecular weight analogs. Furthermore, PnBBa penetrated the brain more rapidly. Each of the PBB analogs was found in all tissues examined but varied in both rate of absorption and clearance.

A new device for differentiated tissue sampling in rat kidney.

Since freeze-clamping does not allow to sample the diffrent renal areas a new method of kidney tissue sampling in anesthetized rats is described. It consists in sectioning a slice in the middle of the rat kidney and immediately freezing. This device allows quick and accurate separation of the different renal areas, and especially of the papilla which is almost entirely sampled. Complete freezing is obtained within 7s after clamping of the renal artery. As proof of adequate "in vivo" fixing, adenine nucleotide levels were assessed in each tissue sample. ATP concentration in cortex samples was 1.62 +/- 0.33 mumole/g wet tissue, this value is comparable with those obtained in the cortex by freeze-clamping.
