The oral and i.v. elimination kinetics were investigated for bromodichloroacetate (BDCA), a haloacetate found in drinking water. The BDCA was administered at a dose of 5, 20 and 100 mg kg-1 to B6C3F1 mice and appears to distribute to the

Haloacetates are a common class of water chlorination by-products. Depending on the amount of bromide in the source water, varying amounts of chlorinated, brominated, and mixed bromochloro haloacetates are produced. When administered to rodents, haloacetates have been shown to increase

Trichloroacetate (TCA), dichloroacetate (DCA), and bromodichloroacetate (BDCA) are byproducts of the chlorination of drinking water. TCA acts primarily as a peroxisome proliferator, but DCA produces tumors at doses less than required for peroxisome proliferation. BDCA does not induce peroxisome proliferation
