Absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of N-cyclohexyl-2-benzothiazyl sulfenamide(CBS), a vulcanizing accelerator, in rats.

Abstract
Absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion were studied in rats following a single oral administration of N-cyclohexyl-2-benzothiazyl sulfenamide (CBS) at a dose of 250 mg/kg. About 65% and 24% of the dose were excreted into urine and feces, respectively, for 3 days after administration of labeled CBS (cyclohexyl-14C). Biliary excretion amounted to about 5% of the dose for 3 days. While about 92% of the dose was recovered in urine and feces at a ratio of 1:1 within 3 days when 14C-2CBS was given. No specific organ-affinity was observed in distribution study. Cyclohexylamine and 2-mercaptobenzothiazole were identified as urinary metabolites.
