Abstract
In 2017 a large-scale fipronil contamination in eggs occurred in several European countries. Fipronil and its metabolites have the potential to be transferred into the eggs of laying hens, thereby entering the human food chain. Here, first the metabolism of fipronil was measured in vitro using chicken liver S9. The results show that fipronil is mainly metabolised into fipronil sulfone and the clearance obtained in vitro was extrapolated to in vivo liver clearance. In a second step a physiologically based kinetic model was developed with a focus on fipronil and its major sulfone metabolite and the model outcome was compared to available in vivo data in eggs from the literature. The experimentally obtained clearance was used as model input to evaluate whether such an in vitro-based model can be used in an early phase of a contamination incident to predict the time-concentration curves. Overall, all model predictions were within a 10-fold difference and the estimated elimination half-life for fipronil equivalents was 14 days. In vitro experiments are definitely recommended compared to in vivo studies, since they provide a fast first insight into the behaviour of a chemical in an organism.

Abstract
Plasma concentrations of acetaminophen, its glucuronide and sulfate conjugates, and cysteinyl acetaminophen were experimentally determined after oral administrations of 10 mg/kg in humanised-liver mice, control mice, rats, common marmosets, cynomolgus monkeys, and minipigs; the results were compared with reported human pharmacokinetic data. Among the animals tested, only rats predominantly converted acetaminophen to sulfate conjugates, rather than glucuronide conjugates. In contrast, the values of area under the plasma concentration curves of acetaminophen, its glucuronide and sulfate conjugates, and cysteinyl acetaminophen after oral administration of acetaminophen in marmosets and minipigs were consistent with those reported in humans under the present conditions. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models (consisting of the gut, liver, and central compartments) for acetaminophen and its primary metabolite could reproduce and estimate, respectively, the plasma and hepatic concentrations of acetaminophen in experimental animals and humans after single virtual oral doses. The values of area under the curves of hepatic concentrations of acetaminophen estimated using PBPK models were correlated with the measured levels of cysteinyl acetaminophen (a deactivated metabolite) in plasma fractions in these species. Consequently, using simple PBPK models and plasma data to predict hepatic chemical concentrations after oral doses could be helpful as an indicator of in vivo possible hepatotoxicity of chemicals such as acetaminophen.

Abstract
Xenobiotics from anthropogenic and natural origin enter animal feed and human food as regulated compounds, environmental contaminants or as part of components of the diet. After dietary exposure, a chemical is absorbed and distributed systematically to a range of organs and tissues, metabolised, and excreted. Physiologically based kinetic (PBK) models have been developed to estimate internal concentrations from external doses. In this study, a generic multi-compartment PBK model was developed for chicken. The PBK model was implemented for seven compounds (with log Kow range -1.37-6.2) to quantitatively link external dose and internal dose for risk assessment of chemicals. Global sensitivity analysis was performed for a hydrophilic and a lipophilic compound to identify the most sensitive parameters in the PBK model. Model predictions were compared to measured data according to dataset-specific exposure scenarios. Globally, 71% of the model predictions were within a 3-fold change of the measured data for chicken and only 7% of the PBK predictions were outside a 10-fold change. While most model input parameters still rely on in vivo experiments, in vitro data were also used as model input to predict internal concentration of the coccidiostat monensin. Future developments of generic PBK models in chicken and other species of relevance to animal health risk assessment are discussed.
