Bull Exp Biol Med. 2016 Aug;161(4):505-7. doi: 10.1007/s10517-016-3448-5. Epub 2016 Sep 3.

Abstract

We compared bioavailability of 4-methyl-2,6-diisobornylphenol after single intragastric administration to rats in a dose of 200 mg/kg in starch suspension and in almond oil. Absorption of 4-methyl-2,6-diisobornylphenol in the gastrointestinal tract after administration in almond oil was much more efficient than after administration in aqueous starch mucus.

Keywords: 4-methyl-2,6-diisobornylphenol; absorption; bioavailability.
