Comparative in vitro metabolism of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) by human and chicken liver microsomes: First insight into heptachlorodecanes.

Short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) are emerging persistent organic pollutants of great concern due to their ubiquitous distribution in the environment. However, little information is available on the biotransformation of SCCPs in organisms. In this study, a chlorinated decane: 1, 2, 5, 5, 6, 9, 10-heptachlorodecanes (HeptaCDs) was subjected to in vitro metabolism by human and chicken liver microsomes at environmentally relevant concentration. Using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-Q-Exactive Orbitrap mass spectrometry, two metabolites: monohydroxylated hexachlorodecane (HO-HexCD) and monohydroxy heptachlorodecane (HO-HeptaCD) were detected in human liver microsomal assays, while only one metabolite (HO-HexCD) was identified in chicken liver microsomal assays. The formation of HO-HexCD was fitted to a Michaelis-Menten model for chicken liver microsomes with a V
