Abstract
Promecarb insecticide was rapidly metabolized and eliminated when administered orally to rats. Over 90% of the dose were present in urine and feces by 96 h, with the urine containing the vast majority of the radioactive material. Most of the radioactive material in the urine was water soluble; however, low levels of promecarb, isothymol, and several unidentified organosoluble metabolites also were present. Levels of radioactivity in selected tissues were low and did not exceed 0.02 ppm.
