Abstract
The effects of mineral oil, vegetable oil, and sodium sulfate on the intestinal absorption of a highly lipid soluble pesticide, DDT, were compared in the rat. Intestinal absorption was evaluated by measuring recovery of DDT and metabolites in feces and the concentration of DDT in adipose tissue following oral administration of DDT and each agent. Vegetable oil was shown to significantly increase absorption of DDT when compared to all other treatments.
