Triphenyl Tin Acetate 
(CoH. ,-sno-lcn, 
Triphenyl tin acetate was poorly absorbed by plants. When taken 
in by animals, probably as a residue on the green fodder, this compound 
was rapidly excreted with the dung. The small amount absorbed was partly 
excreted in the urine and partly distributed throughout the whole body. 
The active ingredient has a biological half-life of 20 hours while its 
metabolic products, presumed to be bound inorganic tin, have a biological 
half-life of 8 to 70 days (650).
