Biliary excretion of cadmium

C G Elinder et al. Environ Health Perspect. 1979 Feb.

Abstract

Biliary excretion of cadmium was studied in two groups of five rats which were given repeated injections of 109Cd. The first group was given a total amount of 6 mg Cd/kg which was 6 times as much as the second group. The elimination of cadmium in bile, urine, and feces was measured 4 to 5 weeks after the last injection. The relative biliary excretion of cadmium was the same in both groupetion, which was 0.001% but, less than the total fecal elimination of cadmium, which averaged 0.034% during the same time.
