Popis: The urinary metabolites of 2,5-dimethylhexane (2,5-DMH) in male Fischer 344 rats, administered the hydrocarbon by gavage, included 2,5-dimethyl-1-hexanoic acid, 2,5-dimethyl-1,2-hexanediol, 2,5-dimethyl-1,5-hexanediol, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol and 2,5-dimethyl-5-hydroxy-1-hexanoic acid. Metabolism favored the formation of the diols. The metabolites were identified using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Histopathologic examination revealed moderate hyaline droplet formation in the renal proximal tubule.
