Abstract:
The identification of the metabolites of the Air Force missile fuel JP-10 was accomplished. 5-Hydroxy-JP-10 was identified as the urinary metabolite of rats, mice and hamsters exposed to JP-10. 5-Keto-JP-10 was a major metabolite found in kidney extracts of male rats exposed to JP-10 but not found in kidney extracts from female rats or from other species. Sex-related differences in the formation of 5-keto-JP-10 in rats were studied.
