Excretion, distribution and metabolism of the insecticide, Isoxathion, administered orally in male Wistar-strain rats, were investigated with a carbon-14 labeled chemical. During 96 hr, approximately 85% and 14% of the total radioactivity were excreted in the urine and feces. Distribution of isoxathion after oral administration in the rats was investigated by means of whole-body autoradiographic technique and measurement of radioactivity in the tissues. At least eleven radioactive metabolites were detected, four of which were structurally determined. They were 3-hydroxy-5-phenylisoxazole, 3-(β-D-glu-copyranuronosyloxy)-5-phenylisoxazole, 5-phenyl-3-isoxazolyl sulfate and hippuric acid.
