Popis: A method for the detection of T-2 metabolites was developed and applied to analysis of metabolites in excreta of broiler chickens administered 3H-labeled T-2 toxin. The method used acetonitrile extraction and partitioning with petroleum ether followed by chromatography on Amberlite XAD-2, Florisil, and Sep-Pak C18. The recovery of T-2 toxin added to the chicken excreta was 73% at a concentration of 0.2 microgram/g. About 80% of orally administered 3H-labeled T-2 toxin was rapidly metabolized to more polar derivatives and eliminated in the excreta within 48 h. T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin, neosolaniol, and T-2 tetraol were detected at 0.06 to 1.13% of the total dose, 48 h after administration. Eight unknown derivatives, named TB-1 to TB-8, were quantitatively more significant than the metabolites above. TB-3 and TB-9 represented about 12 and 25% of the total dose, respectively. One of the metabolites (TB-6), 1.5% of the total dose, was identified as 4-deacetylneosolaniol (15-acetyl-3 alpha, 4 beta, 8 alpha-trihydroxy-12, 13-epoxytrichothec-9-ene).
