4.2 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

PROPANOL-1 IS ABSORBED FROM GI TRACT & LUNGS. IT CAN BE ABSORBED FROM THE SKIN IF A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT IS CONFINED TO THE SKIN. 1-PROPANOL IS ABSORBED MORE READILY THAN ETHANOL. ...

... USING ABDOMINAL AUTOPSY /HUMAN/ SKIN IN A DIFFUSION CHAMBER ... 1-PROPANOL PENETRATED THE SKIN MORE RAPIDLY FROM SOLUTION IN NONPOLAR SOLVENTS SUCH AS ISOPROPYL PALMITATE, OLIVE OIL, & MINERAL OIL THAN FROM SOLUTION IN SALINE.

FOLLOWING AN ORAL DOSE OF 2 G/KG TO RATS, 0.13% OF THE DOSE WAS EXCRETED IN THE URINE. ... 1.65% /WAS/ EXCRETED IN THE EXPIRED AIR & 0.7% EXCRETED IN THE URINE FOLLOWING AN ORAL DOSE OF 2 ML/KG TO RABBITS.

Urine was analyzed immediately, 1, 2, 8, and 9 hr after drinking (during 2 hr) 3.75 ml/kg of beverages containing orange juice, 15 or 40% ethanol, and and 1 g/l of 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, isobutyl alcohol or a mixture of 1-propanol & isobutyl alcohol. Maximum urine levels /in mg/l/ were found 1 hr after drinking ended: 1-propanol 5.04, 2-propanol 3.36, 1-butanol 0.43, 2-butanol 2.55, isobutyl alcohol ... 1.7-2.03 mg/l. Urine treatment with beta-glucuronidase before analysis indicated that significant amounts of the alcohols were excreted as glucuronides, esp isobutyl alcohol. 2-Propanol and 2-butanol were the slowest to be metabolized. When mixtures of alcohols were given, the concentrations of isobutyl alcohol glucuronides were high with the mixtures containing 5 and 15% ethanol, and decreased at 40% ethanol.

1-PROPANOL IS METABOLIZED BY THE ENZYME ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE. IT IS READILY OXIDIZED IN THE BODY, FIRST TO PROPIONIC ACID AND THEN TO CARBON DIOXIDE, WATER AND PERHAPS A SMALL AMOUNT OF LACTIC ACID.

Snyder, R. (ed.). Ethel Browning's Toxicity and Metabolism of Industrial Solvents. Second Edition. Volume 3 Alcohols and Esters. New York, NY: Elsevier, 1992., p. 27


... HEPATIC MICROSOMES CATALYZED THE OXIDATION OF PROPANOL TO ITS ALDEHYDE IN THE RAT. THE REACTION REQUIRED OXYGEN & NICOTINAMIDE-ADENINE DINUCLEOTIDE PHOSPHATE, WAS INHIBITED BY CARBON DIOXIDE AND ACTED INDEPENDENTLY OF CATALASE & ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE.

Cytochrome p450 isozyme 3a, isolated from hepatic microsomes of rabbits treated chronically with ethyl alcohol, had a unique substrate specificity when compared with isozymes 2, 3b, 3c, and 4. Form 3a has unusually high activity in the p-hydroxylation of aniline and in the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes. Isozyme 3a catalyzes the oxidation of methyl alcohol, propyl alcohol, and butanol as well as ethyl alcohol.
