Memo: resorption in mallard drakes

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
After feeding mallard drakes (Anas platyrhynchos) with a hydrocarbon  mixture (0.6 % paraffine plus 0.4 % aromatics in breeder mash) containing  cis- and trans-decahydronaphthalene (concentration not given) for 7  months, the following average decahydronaphthalene residues were
determined (mg/kg wet weight): kidney: 0.03 mg/kg trans-isomer, 0 mg/kg cis-isomer; brain:  0.01 mg/kg  trans-isomer, 0.07 mg/kg cis-isomer. The focus of the study was on the analytical method.
