Similar bioavailability and lymphatic transport of benzo(a)pyrene when administered to rats in different amounts of dietary fat.

This study assessed the effect of concomitant lipid absorption on the bioavailability and lymphatic transport of benzo(a)pyrene (BP), a carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH).Conscious, male Sprague-Dawley rats, equipped with biliary and mesenteric lymphatic catheters received intraduodenally a dose of 0.4 mumoles 3H-labeled BP complete
