    Notes: Abstract This paper reviews existing data on the variability in parameters relevant for health risk analyses. We cover both exposure-related parameters and parameters related to individual susceptibility to toxicity. The toxicity/susceptibility data base under construction is part of a longer term research effort to lay the groundwork for quantitative distributional analyses of non-cancer toxic risks. These data are broken down into a variety of parameter types that encompass different portions of the pathway from external exposure to the production of biological responses. The discrete steps in this pathway, as we now conceive them, are: •Contact Rate (Breathing rates per body weight; fish consumption per body weight) •Uptake or Absorption as a Fraction of Intake or Contact Rate •General Systemic Availability Net of First Pass Elimination and Dilution via Distribution Volume (e.g., initial blood concentration per mg/kg of uptake) •Systemic Elimination (half life or clearance) •Active Site Concentration per Systemic Blood or Plasma Concentration •Physiological Parameter Change per Active Site Concentration (expressed as the dose required to make a given percentage change in different people, or the dose required to achieve some proportion of an individual's maximum response to the drug or toxicant) •Functional Reserve Capacity–Change in Baseline Physiological Parameter Needed to Produce a Biological Response or Pass a Criterion of Abnormal Function Comparison of the amounts of variability observed for the different parameter types suggests that appreciable variability is associated with the final step in the process–differences among people in “functional reserve capacity.” This has the implication that relevant information for estimating effective toxic susceptibility distributions may be gleaned by direct studies of the population distributions of key physiological parameters in people that are not exposed to the environmental and occupational toxicants that are thought to perturb those parameters. This is illustrated with some recent observations of the population distributions of Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol from the second and third National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys.

    Notes: Abstract An analysis of the uncertainty in guidelines for the ingestion of methylmercury (MeHg) due to human pharmacokinetic variability was conducted using a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model that describes MeHg kinetics in the pregnant human and fetus. Two alternative derivations of an ingestion guideline for MeHg were considered: the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reference dose (RfD) of 0.1 μg/kg/day derived from studies of an Iraqi grain poisoning episode, and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry chronic oral minimal risk level (MRL) of 0.5 μg/kg/day based on studies of a fish-eating population in the Seychelles Islands. Calculation of an ingestion guideline for MeHg from either of these epidemiological studies requires calculation of a dose conversion factor (DCF) relating a hair mercury concentration to a chronic MeHg ingestion rate. To evaluate the uncertainty in this DCF across the population of U.S. women of child-bearing age, Monte Carlo analyses were performed in which distributions for each of the parameters in the PBPK model were randomly sampled 1000 times. The 1st and 5th percentiles of the resulting distribution of DCFs were a factor of 1.8 and 1.5 below the median, respectively. This estimate of variability is consistent with, but somewhat less than, previous analyses performed with empirical, one-compartment pharmacokinetic models. The use of a consistent factor in both guidelines of 1.5 for pharmacokinetic variability in the DCF, and keeping all other aspects of the derivations unchanged, would result in an RfD of 0.2 μg/kg/day and an MRL of 0.3 μg/kg/day.

    Notes: Abstract  We examined the utility of otolith minor and trace element chemistry, assayed with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), as a means of delineating population structure in the Nassau grouper (Epinephelus striatus). We characterized the elemental composition of otoliths collected in 1993 from three locations in Exuma Sound, Bahamas and from Glover Reef, Belize in 1995. A single location in Exuma Sound was sampled in 1994 to test temporal variability in otolith composition. Five elements (Ca, Zn, Sr, Ba and Pb) were routinely detected, at levels significantly above background, by solution-based ICP-MS. Results from analysis of variance of elemental data, expressed as a ratio to Ca, indicated that there were no significant differences among the Exuma locations for any element, but significant variability was found between Glover Reef and the pooled Exuma localities for Zn/Ca, Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca ratios. Significant inter-annual differences at one Exuma Sound location was restricted to Ba/Ca ratios. Discriminant function analysis correctly classified 86% and 95% of the Belize and pooled Exuma sites, respectively. Otoliths from Belize were characterized by low Zn/Ca and high Ba/Ca and Pb/Ca ratios compared to otoliths from fish collected in Exuma Sound. Although differences in Ba levels may be related to upwelling at Glover Reef, more data are needed to definitely link otolith composition with regional differences in water chemistry.

    Notes: Summary The plasma and urine kinetics of rufloxacin were assessed in healthy volunteers after single (100, 200, 400 and 800 mg) and multiple (300 mg followed by 150 mg daily, Group 1, and 400 mg followed by 200 mg daily, Group 2) oral doses. The kinetics of a single oral dose of 800 mg was assessed in fasting and non-fasting subjects to assess the influence of food intake on drug absorption. The AUCs were 134, 266 and 375 μg · h · ml−1 after 100, 200 and 400 mg, respectively. The AUC after 800 mg p. o. was 715 μg · h · ml −1 in fasting subjects and 614 μg · h · ml−1 in non-fasting subjects. The parameters of the model and the mean renal clearance values indicated some departure from linearity in rufloxacin kinetics. After multiple doses the plasma drug levels during the 6th treatment day were similar to those after the first dose in Group 1 and were about 30–40% higher after the first dose in Group 2. The half-lives after the last dose were much shorter than those estimated in the single dose studies (33–36 h and 50–80 h, respectively).

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of IV meropenem (500 mg over 30 min) has been studied in 6 healthy volunteers and 26 patients with various degrees of renal impairment. Blood samples were taken at different times over 24 h in healthy subjects and 36 to 48 h in uraemic patients, and four or five urine samples were collected over 24 or 48 h. Meropenem concentrations in plasma and urine were measured by a microbiological assay. The mean peak plasma concentration of meropenem ranged from 28 to 40 μg·ml−1 and was not affected by the degree of renal impairment. The terminal half-life of meropenem was approximately 1 h in subjects with normal kidney function and it was proportionately increased as renal function decreased. A significant linear relationship between total body clearance and creatinine clearance as well as between renal clearance and creatinine clearance was observed. The mean apparent volume of distribution at steady state was not significantly altered in uraemic patients. The mean cumulative urinary recovery of meropenem in healthy volunteers was 77% of the administered dose and it was significantly decreased in patients with renal impairment. Haemodialysis shortened the elimination half-life, from 9.7 h during the predialysis period to 1.4 h during the dialysis period. The dose of meropenem should be reduced in relation to the decrease in creatinine clearance.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetic parameters of oral diphemanil methylsulphate have been evaluated in six healthy male volunteers. Absorption of the drug was slow (tmax=2 to 4 h), the mean half-life was 8.35 h, and the amount of the drug recovered in urine within 48 h ranged from 0.6 to 7.4% of the administered dose. The results suggest low bioavailability, assuming that the drug is poorly metabolized.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of loperamide, after oral administration of increasing doses (1 to 16 mg) of loperamide oxide, has been investigated in 10 healthy male volunteers, using a randomised cross-over design. Comparison of the maximum plasma loperamide concentration and AUC demonstrated that the bioavailability of loperamide was proportional to the dose of loperamide oxide administered.

    Notes: Summary Bone marrow transplant patients having severe, prolonged oral mucositis pain (expected to last for one to three weeks) used a computer-controlled infusion system to self-administer morphine for pain control. Individual patient pharmacokinetic information, derived from a pretreatment bolus morphine dose, was used in a new bolus-elimination transfer algorithm to produce rapid adjustments of steady plasma morphine concentrations when the patient requested more or less drug. We evaluated the performance characteristics (bias and precision) of this pharmacokinetically based patient-controlled analgesic infusion system (PKPCA) in a group of 15 cancer patients over six to 14 days. Although we found a three- to fivefold pharmaco-kinetic variability in the tailoring morphine dose data, the PKPCA system was free of systematic bias (insignificant overall prediction error) during the patient-controlled infusions in this study population. The absolute prediction error was 19.9% for the group on the first study day and 25.6% over the entire study period (aggregate results; 6–14 days of continuous use). Two-thirds of the patients exhibited no bias throughout the study period, and individual bias in the others was symmetrically distributed (three patients with underpredictions and two overpredicted). Magnitude of prediction error during the patient-controlled morphine infusions was not related to the magnitude of pharmacokinetic deviation of individual subjects from group parameters. Our results indicate that this PKPCA system provides accurate control of plasma morphine concentration when used by patients to self-administer opioid for prolonged pain relief continuously over 1 to 2 weeks. Use of individual pharmacokinetic information, instead of population parameters, may account for superior performance characteristic of this computer-assisted continuous drug infusion system.

    Notes: Summary The steady-state pharmacokinetic profile of indomethacin was examined in twelve healthy volunteers (4 m, 8 f; 20–34 y) and in 12 elderly subjects (7 m, 5 f; 70–88 y). Two formulations of indomethacin were examined, providing duplicate data for each subject group. The subjects received each formulation of indomethacin (25 mg tid) for 6 days in a single blind crossover fashion. On day 7, after an overnight fast, a final 25 mg dose of indomethacin was given and plasma concentrations measured over the following 12 h. Kinetic parameters Cpmin, tmx and AUC (0–12 h) were determined. There were no differences in the pharmacokinetic parameters between young and elderly subjects or between data for the two formulations of indomethacin. AUC values (μg · ml−1 · h), for example, for the two formulations in the young subjects were 5.85 and 6.85 while the values for the elderly subjects were 6.55 and 6.50 respectively. When each treatment period was considered independently there was a significant difference between young and elderly subjects with regard to compliance. The rates of non compliance (over and under compliance) using a capsule count technique were, however, low with a mean maximum value of 5.8% being recorded for the elderly subjects.
