Aminocyclohexane showed dose dependent kinetics after administration of single oral doses of 35, 200, or 500 mg/kg in rats, with a reduction in plasma clearance from 37 to 24 ml/min/kg, an increase in apparent half-life from 11.8 to 12 hr, and an increased area under the testicular concentration vs time curve.
Saturation of Aminocyclohexane uptake by rat renal cortical slices in vitro and of renal tubular secretion in vivo occurred at concentrations and doses comparable to the oral dose studies.

Aminocyclohexane clearance from a 10 mg/kg infusion was 2.58 + or - 1.13 ml/min and from a 200 mg/kg infusion, 2.49 + or - 1.65 ml/min. The Aminocyclohexane to inulin clearance ratios were 2 at a dose of 10 mg/kg and 1.23 at a dose of 200 mg/kg.
During chronic dietary administration the concentrations of Aminocyclohexane in the plasma and testes showed a pronounced diurnal variation in rats, reaching a peak concentration at the end of the dark cycle at 6 AM (6.3 + or - 1.5 ug/ml in plasma an 45.7 + or - 3.4 ug/g in testes.

The lowest concentrations of Aminocyclohexane were at 9 PM (1.5 + of - 0.5 ug/ml in plasma and 10.9 + or - 3.6 ug/g in testes). The steady state plasma clearance was 33 ml/min/kg.
The concentrations of Aminocyclohexane in the plasma and testes of rats showed a nonlinear relationship to dietary intake.
Elevated concentrations were found at intake greater than 200 mg/kg/day.

After oral admin (0.2 g/kg) to rabbits, Aminocyclohexane gave rise to unchanged Aminocyclohexane & N-hydroxyAminocyclohexane in the urine.
When C14-labeled Aminocyclohexane was admin, 68% of the radioactivity was recovered in the urine after 60 hr.
A small amount (0.5%) was eliminated in the breath & 45% of the admin dose was shown to be excreted in the urine as unconjugated Aminocyclohexane, 0.2% as N-hydroxyAminocyclohexane in conjugated form, & 2.5% as cyclohexanone oxime.
The authors postulated the latter metabolite to be an artifact formed form the glucuronide of N-hydroxyAminocyclohexane during the hydrolysis procedure.

The metabolites identified indicated that in rats, the metabolism of Aminocyclohexane was mainly through hydroxylation of the cyclohexane ring, in man by deamination & in guinea pigs & rabbits by ring hydroxylation & deamination.
The metabolites to Aminocyclohexane were excreted in both free & conjugated forms.

Most of the Aminocyclohexane given by gavage or intraperitoneal injection to rats and guinea pigs was excreted unchanged, and only 4-5% was metabolized within 24 hours.
In rabbits, 30% was metabolized.
Aminocyclohexane has been reported to be metabolized further to cyclohexanone and then to cyclohexanol in guinea pigs, rabbits and rats.
A number of hydroxylated products of Aminocyclohexane have been reported in these species, which were excreted in part as glucuronides.

Orally administration cyclamate appears to be readily absorbed by rabbits but less readily by guinea pigs, rats and humans.
All of these species convert cyclamate to Aminocyclohexane, via the action of gastrointestinal microflora on unabsorbed cyclamate.

The metabolism of Aminocyclohexane to other products differs somewhat in humans and other species, although most Aminocyclohexane is rapidly excreted unchanged in the urine.
In rats, it is metabolized mainly by hydroxylation of the cyclohexane ring; in humans, it is metabolized by deamination; and in guinea pigs and rabbits, it is metabolized by ring hydroxylation and deamination.

Mice were fed Aminocyclohexane (as the hydrochloride) at a constant intake of 400 mg/kg/day for 13 weeks.
Food intake and body weight gain were not affected.
The metabolism of (14)C labeled Aminocyclohexane administered as a single oral dose (2 uCi per mouse) was not significantly different among animals chronically fed Aminocyclohexane for 0, 3, 7, or 13 weeks.

The major metabolite produced was 3-aminocyclohexanol; total metabolism was less than 2%. ... Concentrations of Aminocyclohexane in plasma (ug/ml) after 3 weeks feeding were 0.20; after 7 weeks 0.18; and after 13 weeks, 4.51 + or - 2.94. Concentrations of the chemical in testes (ug/g wet weight) varied from 6.81 + or - 5.21 at 3 weeks to 4.51 + or - 2.94 at 13 weeks. /Aminocyclohexane hydrochloride/

Wistar and DA rats were fed Aminocyclohexane (as the hydrochloride) at constant intake of 400 mg/kg/day for 13 weeks.
The metabolism of (14)C-labeled Aminocyclohexane administered as a single oral dose (8 uCi per rat) was similar for both strains of rat, with no consistent effect due to age or prolonged feeding with Aminocyclohexane.

However, there was reduced elimination of (14)C in the treated Wistar and DA rats compared to that in the controls during the first 6 hr after dosing; the difference was statistically significant at 3 weeks in both strains and at 13 weeks in the DA strain.

The major metabolites produced were 3- and 4-aminocyclohexanols; at 13 weeks the total metabolism was 17% to 18% for the Wistar rats, 4% to 6% in the DA rats.
After 13 weeks, testicular atrophy was demonstrated in both strains of rat fed Aminocyclohexane; DA rats appeared more sensitive to testicular toxicity than the Wistar rats.
Concentrations of Aminocyclohexane and its metabolites in plasma and in testicular tissue were higher in Wistar rats than in DA rats.

Aminocyclohexane can be formed to a variable extent by microbial biotransformation of cyclamate in the gastrointestinal tract of all species studied; after absorption, it is further metabolized to several compounds that are excreted in the urine.

Biological Half-Life of Aminocyclohexane
Aminocyclohexane showed dose dependent kinetics after administration of single oral doses of 35, 200 or 500 mg/kg in mice, with a reduction in plasma clearance from 61 to 53 ml/min/kg, an increase in apparent half-life from 1.4 to 3.5 hr, and an increased area under the testicular concentration vs time curve.

During chronic dietary administration the concentrations of Aminocyclohexane in the plasma and testes showed little diurna variation. The steady state plasma clearance was 65 ml/min/kg.
The concentrations of Aminocyclohexane in the plasma and testes of the mice showed a linear relationship to dietary intake, even at the highest intake, about 900 mg/kg/day.
