Pregnancy‐associated glycoproteins (PAGs) constitute a large family of glycoproteins that are synthesized in the superficial layer of the ruminant placenta according to a spatial and temporal expression pattern. When PAGs are released in the maternal blood they can be used for pregnancy diagnosis, pregnancy follow‐up and for the monitoring of the trophoblastic function. Three different radioimmunoassay systems (RIA 1, RIA 2 and RIA 3) using antisera produced against PAG I67 (RIA 1), PAG55+62 (RIA 2) and PAG55+59 (RIA 3) were used in this investigation in order to measure the PAG concentration in plasma samples withdrawn from pregnant cows and heifers during different periods following artificial insemination (AI). These systems were able to detect PAG molecules in the maternal blood as early as 21 days after AI in different concentrations (RIA 1: 0.43 ± 0.24 ng/ml, mean ± SD; RIA 2: 0.48 ± 0.24 ng/ml; RIA 3: 0.64 ± 0.37 ng/ml). On days 32 and 42 RIA 2 (4.30 ± 1.32 ng/ml and 5.56 ± 1.95 ng/ml) and RIA 3 (4.17 ± 1.15 ng/ml and 5.60 ± 1.89 ng/ml) presented significantly (p < 0.0001) higher PAG concentrations than those of RIA 1 (2.43 ± 0.81 ng/ml and 4.01 ± 1.48 ng/ml), respectively. After day 21, significant correlations (p < 0.0001; r ≥ 0.929) were determined between the three systems. Additionally the three individual PAG profiles presented in this study showed that PAG molecules secreted in the maternal blood between 21 and 50 days after AI were better recognized by the RIA 2 and RIA 3 systems. This study clearly indicated that the ability of a RIA test to recognize PAG molecules in the maternal blood can be improved by carefully selecting the antiserum.  相似文献

The study objective was to evaluate the effects of age on aminoglycoside pharmacokinetics in eight young‐adult (<4 years) and eight aged (≥14 years) healthy alpacas, receiving a single 6.6 mg/kg intravenous gentamicin injection. Heparinized plasma samples were obtained at designated time points following drug administration and frozen at ?80°C until assayed by a validated immunoassay (QMS ®). Compartmental and noncompartmental analyses of gentamicin plasma concentrations versus time were performed using WinNonlin (v6.4) software. Baseline physical and hematological parameters were not significantly different between young and old animals with the exception of sex. Data were best fitted to a two‐compartment pharmacokinetic model. The peak drug concentration at 30 min after dosing (23.8 ± 2.1 vs. 26.1 ± 2 μg/ml, p = .043 ) and area under the curve (70.4 ± 10.5 vs. 90.4 ± 17.6 μg hr/ml, p = .015 ) were significantly lower in young‐adult compared to aged alpacas. Accordingly, young alpacas had a significantly greater systemic clearance than older animals (95.5 ± 14.4 and 75.6 ± 16.1 ml hr?1 kg?1; p = .018 ), respectively). In conclusion, a single 6.6 mg/kg intravenous gentamicin injection achieves target blood concentrations of >10 times the MIC of gentamicin‐susceptible pathogens with MIC levels ≤2 μg/ml, in both young‐adult and geriatric alpacas. However, the observed reduction in gentamicin clearance in aged alpacas may increase their risk for gentamicin‐related adverse drug reactions.  相似文献

The pharmacokinetics of orbifloxacin was studied after a single dose (7.5 mg/kg) of intravenous or intramuscular administration to crucian carp (Carassius auratus ) reared in freshwater at 25°C. Plasma samples were collected from six fish per sampling point. Orbifloxacin concentrations were determined by high‐performance liquid chromatography with a 0.02 μg/ml limit of detection, then were subjected to noncompartmental analysis. After intravenous injection, initial concentration of 5.83 μg/ml, apparent elimination rate constant (λz) of 0.039 hr?1, apparent elimination half‐life (T1/2λz) of 17.90 hr, systemic total body clearance (Cl) of 75.47 ml hr?1 kg?1, volume of distribution (Vz) of 1,948.76 ml/kg, and volume of distribution at steady‐state (Vss) of 1,863.97 ml/kg were determined, respectively. While after intramuscular administration, the λz, T 1/2λz, mean absorption time (MAT ), absorption half‐life (T 1/2ka), and bioavailability were determined as 0.027 hr?1, 25.69, 10.26, 7.11 hr, and 96.46%, respectively, while the peak concentration was observed as 3.11 ± 0.06 μg/ml at 2.0 hr. It was shown that orbifloxacin was completely but relatively slowly absorbed, extensively distributed, and slowly eliminated in crucian carp, and an orbifloxacin dosage of 10 mg/kg administered intravenously or intramuscularly would be expected to successfully treat crucian carp infected by strains with MIC values ≤0.5 μg/ml.  相似文献

This study describes ovine pregnancy‐associated glycoprotein (ovPAG) concentrations in 20 Lacaune sheep during early pregnancy. Measurements were performed by using semi‐purified ovPAG as standard, tracer and immunogens for antibody production in rabbits. Antisera R780 (against ovPAG57+59kDa) and R805 (against ovPAG558+61kDa) were used respectively in RIA‐780 and RIA‐805. Blood samples were collected at days 0, 18, 20, 22 and 25 after artificial insemination. From day 18 after breeding onward, the mean ovPAG concentration was significantly higher (p < 0.001) in plasma samples from pregnant ewes (n = 17) than in non‐pregnant ones (n = 3). The specific activity of the tracer was 11 760 Ci/mmol in RIA‐780 and 14 900 Ci/mmol in RIA‐805. The minimal detection limits for RIA‐780 and RIA‐805 were 0.2 ng/ml and 0.3 ng/ml, respectively. The intra‐assay CV of samples with low (1.0 ng/ml), medium (2.5 ng/ml) and high (4.0 ng/ml) PAG concentrations were 3%, 6% and 9% for RIA‐780 and 8%, 9% and 5% for RIA‐805. The inter‐assay CV in the same samples were 13%, 12% and 7% for RIA‐780 and 13%, 11% and 5% for RIA‐805. The recovery was higher than 95% in both assays. No cross‐reaction was observed with members of aspartic proteinase family as well as with other tested proteins. In both RIA‐780 and RIA‐805, inhibition of the binding of the tracer by antisera was parallel between standard curve and serial dilutions of pregnant ewe samples. In conclusion, the two homologous RIA systems are suitable for early quantification of ovPAG concentrations in ewe plasma samples from day 18 after breeding.  相似文献

Nine horses received 20 mg/kg of intravenous (LEVIV ); 30 mg/kg of intragastric, crushed immediate release (LEVCIR ); and 30 mg/kg of intragastric, crushed extended release (LEVCER ) levetiracetam, in a three‐way randomized crossover design. Crushed tablets were dissolved in water and administered by nasogastric tube. Serum samples were collected over 48 hr, and levetiracetam concentrations were determined by immunoassay. Mean ± SD peak concentrations for LEVCIR and LEVCER were 50.72 ± 10.60 and 53.58 ± 15.94 μg/ml, respectively. The y ‐intercept for IV administration was 64.54 ± 24.99 μg/ml. The terminal half‐life was 6.38 ± 1.97, 7.07 ± 1.93 and 6.22 ± 1.35 hr for LEVCIR , LEVCER , and LEVIV , respectively. Volume of distribution at steady‐state was 630 ± 73.4 ml/kg. Total body clearance after IV administration was 74.40 ± 19.20 ml kg?1 hr?1. Bioavailability was 96 ± 10, and 98 ± 13% for LEVCIR and LEVCER , respectively. A single dose of Levetiracetam (LEV ) was well tolerated. Based on this study, a recommended dosing regimen of intravenous or oral LEV of 32 mg/kg every 12 hr is likely to achieve and maintain plasma concentrations within the therapeutic range suggested for humans, with optimal kinetics throughout the dosing interval in healthy adult horses. Repeated dosing and pharmacodynamic studies are warranted.  相似文献

The purpose of the study was to determine pharmacokinetics of fentanyl after intravenous (i.v.) and transdermal (t.d.) administration to six adult alpacas. Fentanyl was administered i.v. (2 μg/kg) or t.d. (nominal dose: 2 μg kg?1 hr?1). Plasma concentrations were determined using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry. Heart rate and respiratory rate were assessed. Extrapolated, zero‐time plasma fentanyl concentrations were 6.0 ng/ml (1.7–14.6 ng/ml) after i.v. administration, total plasma clearance was 1.10 L hr?1 kg?1 (0.75–1.40 L hr?1 kg?1), volumes of distribution were 0.30 L/kg (0.10–0.99 L/kg), 1.10 L/kg (0.70–2.96 L/kg) and 1.5 L/kg (0.8–3.5 L/kg) for V1, V2, and Vss, respectively. Elimination half‐life was 1.2 hr (0.5–4.3 hr). Mean residence time (range) after i.v. dosing was 1.30 hr (0.65–4.00 hr). After t.d. fentanyl administration, maximum plasma fentanyl concentration was 1.20 ng/ml (0.72–3.00 ng/ml), which occurred at 25 hr (8–48 hr) after patch placement. The area under the plasma fentanyl concentration‐vs‐time curve (extrapolated to infinity) after t.d. fentanyl was 61 ng*hr/ml (49–93 ng*hr/ml). The dose‐normalized bioavailability of fentanyl from t.d. fentanyl in alpacas was 35.5% (27–64%). Fentanyl absorption from the t.d. fentanyl patch into the central compartment occurred at a rate of approximately 50 μg/hr (29–81 μg/hr) between 8 and 72 hr after patch placement.  相似文献

The Pregnancy Associated Glycoproteins (PAGs) presented in this paper are largely expressed in the ruminant placenta. These proteins are classified as probably inactive members of the aspartic proteinase family. Pepsinogen, renin, cathepsin E & D and chymosine are typical members of this family, characterised by the presence of aspartic acids boarding the recognition sites. Secreted in the peripheral blood of the pregnant female from early pregnancy, these proteins can be used in serological tests for establishing different diagnoses. In the veterinary practice, these diagnoses are useful for both pregnancy confirmation and follow-up of trophoblastic function. The first aspect can help breeders in the management of reproduction, while the second one more specifically concerns clinicians and researchers wishing to establish a differential diagnosis of pathologic conditions affecting pregnancy.  相似文献

The impact of TCM‐199 supplemented with different proteins and heterologous hormones on the in vitro maturation (IVM) rate of bitch oocytes was evaluated by nuclear staining under fluorescence microscopy. Oocytes were recovered by slicing of ovaries from bitches presented at various stages of oestrous cycle to ovariohysterectomy. The basic culture medium was TCM‐199 supplemented with 25 mM Hepes/l, with 10% heat‐inactivated oestrous cow serum (ECS), 50 μg/ml gentamicin, 2.2 mg/ml sodium bicarbonate and 22‐μg/ml pyruvic acid, 1.0‐μg/ml oestradiol (E 8875; Sigma), 0.5‐μg/ml follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) (Folltropin‐V; Vetrepharm Inc., Ontario, Canada) and 0.03 IU/ml human gonadotropin (hCG) (Profasi HP; Serono, Aubonne, Switzerland). Oocytes were distributed randomly between basic culture medium (control) and the corresponding experimental treatment. Hormone treatments were: oocytes cultured in; (1) medium without FSH, (2) control medium supplemented with 20 μg/ml oestradiol, or (3) medium supplemented with 1 μg/ml human somatotropin (hST; Humatrope, Lilly, Saint Cloud, France). The second experiment consisted of oocytes cultured in medium supplemented with 0.4% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA, fraction V; Gibco Grand Island, NY, USA) instead of ECS, or oocytes cultured in medium with 10% inactivated oestrous bitch serum (EBS) instead of ECS. Oocytes were cultured in 100 μl droplets (up to 25 oocytes per drop) under mineral oil at 37°C in a 100% humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 in air. After 72 h of IVM, the highest rates (p < 0.05) of meiotic resumption were achieved with the 0.4% BSA supplementation. A positive influence on the metaphase II (MII) acquisition rate was observed with hST supplement. Oocytes cultured with 10% EBS supplementation did not develop to the MII stage. The results in this study show that the protein and hormone supplements to TCM‐199 culture medium tested did not promote the final steps of IVM of bitch oocytes.  相似文献

The comparative pharmacokinetics of ivermectin (IVM), between healthy and in Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharides (LPS) injected sheep, was investigated after an intravenous (IV) administration of a single dose of 0.2 mg/kg. Ten Suffolk Down sheep, 55 ± 3.3 kg, were distributed in two experimental groups: Group 1 (LPS): treated with three doses of 1 μg LPS/kg bw at ?24, ?16, and ?0.75 hr before IVM; group 2 (Control): treated with saline solution (SS). An IV dose of 0.2 mg IVM/kg was administered 45 min after the last injection of LPS or SS. Plasma concentrations of IVM were determined by liquid chromatography. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated based on non‐compartmental modeling. In healthy sheep, the values of the pharmacokinetic parameters were as follows: elimination half‐life (2.85 days), mean residence time (MRT) (2.27 days), area under the plasma concentration curve over time (AUC, 117.4 ng day?1 ml?1), volume of distribution (875.6 ml/kg), and clearance (187.1 ml/day). No statistically significant differences were observed when compared with the results obtained from the group of sheep treated with LPS. It is concluded that the acute inflammatory response (AIR) induced by the intravenous administration of E. coli LPS in adult sheep produced no changes in plasma concentrations or in the pharmacokinetic behavior of IVM, when it is administered intravenously at therapeutic doses.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) of cytarabine (CA) after subcutaneous (SC) administration to dogs with meningoencephalomyelitis of unknown etiology (MUE). Twelve dogs received a single SC dose of CA at 50 mg/m2 as part of treatment of MUE. A sparse sampling technique was used to collect four blood samples from each dog from 0 to 360 min after administration. All dogs were concurrently receiving prednisone (0.5–2 mg kg?1day?1). Plasma CA concentrations were measured by HPLC, and pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated using nonlinear mixed‐effects modeling (NLME). Plasma drug concentrations ranged from 0.05 to 2.8 μg/ml. The population estimate (CV%) for elimination half‐life and Tmax of cytarabine in dogs was 1.09 (21.93) hr and 0.55 (51.03) hr, respectively. The volume of distribution per fraction absorbed was 976.31 (10.85%) ml/kg. Mean plasma concentration of CA for all dogs was above 1.0 μg/ml at the 30‐, 60‐, 90‐, and 120‐min time points. In this study, the pharmacokinetics of CA in dogs with MUE after a single 50 mg/m2 SC injection in dogs was similar to what has been previously reported in healthy beagles; there was moderate variability in the population estimates in this clinical population of dogs.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of cefquinome (CFQ ) following single intravenous (IV ) or intramuscular (IM ) injections of 2 mg/kg body weight in red‐eared slider turtles. Plasma concentrations of CFQ were determined by high‐performance liquid chromatography and analyzed using noncompartmental methods. The pharmacokinetic parameters following IV injection were as follows: elimination half‐life (t 1/2λz) 21.73 ± 4.95 hr, volume of distribution at steady‐state (V dss) 0.37 ± 0.11 L/kg, area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC 0–∞) 163 ± 32 μg hr?1 ml?1, and total body clearance (ClT) 12.66 ± 2.51 ml hr?1 kg?1. The pharmacokinetic parameters after IM injection were as follows: peak plasma concentration (C max) 3.94 ± 0.84 μg/ml, time to peak concentration (T max) 3 hr, t 1/2λz 26.90 ± 4.33 hr, and AUC 0–∞ 145 ± 48 μg hr?1 ml?1. The bioavailability after IM injection was 88%. Data suggest that CFQ has a favorable pharmacokinetic profile with a long half‐life and a high bioavailability in red‐eared slider turtles. Further studies are needed to establish a multiple dosage regimen and evaluate clinical efficacy.  相似文献

This study determined the pharmacokinetics, antinociceptive, and anti‐inflammatory effects of the soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH ) inhibitor t ‐TUCB (trans ‐4‐{4‐[3‐(4‐Trifluoromethoxy‐phenyl)‐ureido]‐cyclohexyloxy}‐benzoic acid) in horses with lipopolysaccharide (LPS )‐induced radiocarpal synovitis. A total of seven adult healthy mares (n  = 4–6/treatment) were administered 3 μg LPS into one radiocarpal joint and t ‐TUCB intravenously (i.v.) at 0 (control), 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, and 1 mg/kg in a blinded, randomized, crossover design with at least 3 weeks washout between. Two investigators independently assigned pain scores (at rest, walk and trot) and lameness scores before and up to 48 hr after t ‐TUCB /LPS . Responses to touching the joint skin to assess tactile allodynia, plasma, and synovial fluid (SF ) t ‐TUCB concentrations were determined before and up to 48 hr after t ‐TUCB /LPS . Blood and SF were collected for clinical laboratory evaluations before and up to 48 hr after t ‐TUCB /LPS . Areas under the curves of pain and lameness scores were calculated and compared between control and treatments. Data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA with Dunnett or Bonferroni post‐test. p  < .05 was considered significant. Data are mean ± SEM . Compared to control, pain, lameness, and tactile allodynia were significantly lower with 1 mg/kg t ‐TUCB , but not the other doses. For 0.1, 0.3, and 1 mg/kg t ‐TUCB treatments, plasma terminal half‐lives were 13 ± 3, 13 ± 0.5, and 24 ± 5 hr, and clearances were 68 ± 15, 48 ± 5, and 14 ± 1 ml hr?1 kg?1. The 1 mg/kg t ‐TUCB reached the SF at high concentrations. There were no important anti‐inflammatory effects. In conclusion, sEH inhibition with t ‐TUCB may provide analgesia in horses with inflammatory joint pain.  相似文献

This work characterized the egg residual concentrations of albendazole (ABZ ) and its sulphoxide (ABZSO ) and sulphone (ABZSO 2) metabolites and evaluated their effect on egg fertility and hatchability after ABZ treatments to laying hens. Seventy hens were allocated in groups: Group‐1 was the control without treatment; Group‐2 received a single ABZ oral dose (10 mg/kg); Group‐3, ‐4 and ‐5 were treated with ABZ in medicated feed over 7 days at 10, 40, or 80 mg kg?1 day?1, respectively. Eggs were analyzed to determine the ABZ /metabolite level by HPLC or subjected to incubation to evaluate the fertility and hatchability. Only ABZSO and ABZSO 2 metabolites were quantified in egg after ABZ single oral administration with maximum concentrations of 0.47 ± 0.08 and 0.30 ± 0.07 μg/ml, respectively. ABZ and its metabolites were found in eggs after 7‐day ABZ treatments. The egg residue exposure estimated as AUC s (areas under the concentration vs . time curve) were 100.5 (ABZ ), 56.3 (ABZSO ) and 141.3 μg hr g?1 (ABZSO 2). ABZ administration did not affect the egg fertility at any dosages. Egg hatchability was not affected by ABZ treatment at 10 mg/kg in medicated feed, but it decreased when the dose was 4–8 times higher. These results should be considered when ABZ is used for deworming laying hens.  相似文献

Drugs that provide effective analgesia in cats are limited. The aim of the study was to assess the pharmacokinetics of grapiprant after 2 mg/kg administration via p.o. and i.v. routes in cats. Six healthy adult cats were used according to an open, single‐dose, two‐treatment, two‐period, randomized cross‐over design. Cats were assigned to two treatment groups and administered with 2 mg/kg of grapiprant (pure powder) through p.o. and i.v. administration. Blood samples were collected at preassigned times and analysed by a validated HPLC method. After both administrations, grapiprant concentrations were detectable in plasma for up to 24 hr in five of six animals. The critical parameters including clearance (173.2 ml hr?1 kg?1, range 120–326 ml hr?1 kg?1) and volume of distribution (918 ml/kg, range 611–1608 ml/kg) were calculated from the i.v. group. The mean oral F% was low (39.6% range 31.5%–45.2%). If the assumption that the minimal effective concentration in dogs (164 ng/ml) applies in cats too, grapiprant orally administered at 2 mg/kg might be effective for 10 hr. Further studies are necessary to establish the minimal effective concentration in this animal species.  相似文献

Modulatory capacity of bioactive compounds from different wastes has been scarcely investigated in pigs. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dietary inclusion of grape seed cakes (GS diet) on performance and plasma biochemistry parameters as health indicators, as well as on several markers related to inflammation and antioxidant defence in the liver of fattening‐finishing pigs. Twelve cross‐bred pigs (TOPIG ) were randomly assigned to one of two experimental diets: control and 5% grape seed cake diet during finishing period (24 days). No effect of GS diet on pig performance and blood biochemistry was observed. However, GS diet decreased significantly (?9.05%, p  <  .05) the cholesterol concentration (85.71 ± 0.94 mg/dl vs 94.24 ± 2.16 mg/dl) and increased IgA level (+49.90%, p  <  .05) in plasma (5.04 ± 0.5 mg/ml vs 3.36 ± 0.7 mg/ml). GS cakes decreased the inflammatory response in the liver of pigs fed with GS diet by lowering the Gene expression and protein concentration of pro‐inflammatory cytokines (IL ‐1β , IL ‐8, TNF ‐α and IFN ‐γ ) as well as the mRNA abundances of NF ‐κ B signalling molecules. The antioxidant status was not increased by GS diet. The gene expression and activity of catalase decreased significantly. The gene expression of Nrf2, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and heat‐shock protein decreased, and no effect on their activity was observed with the exception of catalase activity which decreased. However, TBARS was reduced significantly. GS diet showed a modulatory effect on antioxidative status as well as anti‐inflammatory and hypocholesterolic properties without effect on pig performance.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetics and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis inhibiting effects of intravenous (IV) and transdermal (TD) flunixin meglumine in eight adult female Boer goats. A dose of 2.2 mg/kg was administered intravenously (IV) and 3.3 mg/kg administered TD using a cross‐over design. Plasma flunixin concentrations were measured by LC‐MS/MS. Prostaglandin E2 concentrations were determined using a commercially available ELISA. Pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis was performed using noncompartmental methods. Plasma PGE2 concentrations decreased after flunixin meglumine for both routes of administration. Mean λz‐HL after IV administration was 6.032 hr (range 4.735–9.244 hr) resulting from a mean Vz of 584.1 ml/kg (range, 357.1–1,092 ml/kg) and plasma clearance of 67.11 ml kg?1 hr?1 (range, 45.57–82.35 ml kg?1 hr?1). The mean Cmax, Tmax, and λz‐HL for flunixin following TD administration was 0.134 μg/ml (range, 0.050–0.188 μg/ml), 11.41 hr (range, 6.00–36.00 hr), and 43.12 hr (15.98–62.49 hr), respectively. The mean bioavailability for TD flunixin was calculated as 24.76%. The mean 80% inhibitory concentration (IC80) of PGE2 by flunixin meglumine was 0.28 μg/ml (range, 0.08–0.69 μg/ml) and was only achieved with IV formulation of flunixin in this study. The PK results support clinical studies to examine the efficacy of TD flunixin in goats. Determining the systemic effects of flunixin‐mediated PGE2 suppression in goats is also warranted.  相似文献

A transdermal formulation of the nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drug, flunixin meglumine, has been approved in the United States and Canada for single‐dose administration. Transdermal flunixin meglumine was administered to 10 adult Holstein cows in their second or third lactation at the label dose of 3.33 mg/kg every 24 hr for three total treatments. Plasma flunixin concentrations were determined using high‐pressure liquid chromatography with mass spectroscopy (HPLC ‐MS ). Pharmacokinetic analysis was completed on each individual animal with noncompartmental methods using computer software. The time to maximum drug concentration (T max) was 2.81 hr, and the maximum drug concentration was 1.08 μg/ml. The mean terminal half‐life (T½) was determined to be 5.20 hr. Clearance per fraction absorbed (Cl/F) was calculated to be 0.294 L/hr kg?1, and volume of distribution of fraction (V z/F ) absorbed was 2.20 L/kg. The mean accumulation factor was 1.10 after three doses. This indicates changes in dosing may not be required when giving multiple doses of flunixin transdermal. Further work is required to investigate the clinical efficacy of transdermal flunixin after multiple daily doses.  相似文献

The disposition kinetics of norfloxacin, after intravenous, intramuscular and subcutaneous administration was determined in rabbits at a single dose of 10 mg/kg. Six New Zealand white rabbits of both sexes were treated with aqueous solution of norfloxacin (2%). A cross‐over design was used in three phases (2 × 2 × 2), with two washout periods of 15 days. Plasma samples were collected up to 72 hr after treatment, snap‐frozen at ?45°C and analysed for norfloxacin concentrations using high‐performance liquid chromatography. The terminal half‐life for i.v., i.m. and s.c. routes was 3.18, 4.90 and 4.16 hr, respectively. Clearance value after i.v. dosing was 0.80 L/h·kg. After i.m. administration, the absolute bioavailability was (mean ± SD ) 108.25 ± 12.98% and the Cmax was 3.68 mg/L. After s.c. administration, the absolute bioavailability was (mean ± SD ) 84.08 ± 10.36% and the Cmax was 4.28 mg/L. As general adverse reactions were not observed in any rabbit and favourable pharmacokinetics were found, norfloxacin at 10 mg/kg after i.m. and s.c. dose could be effective in rabbits against micro‐organisms with MIC ≤0.14 or 0.11 μg/mL , respectively.  相似文献

Compartmental models were used to investigate the pharmacokinetics of intravenous (i.v. ), oral (p.o. ), and topical (TOP ) administration of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO ). The plasma concentration–time curve following a 15‐min i.v. infusion of DMSO was described by a two‐compartment model. Median and range of alpha (t 1/2α) and beta (t 1/2β) half‐lives were 0.029 (0.026–0.093) and 14.1 (6.6–16.4) hr, respectively. Plasma concentration–time curves of DMSO following p.o. and TOP administration were best described by one‐compartment absorption and elimination models. Following the p.o. administration, median absorption (t 1/2ab) and elimination (t 1/2e) half‐lives were 0.15 (0.01–0.77) and 15.5 (8.5–25.2) hr, respectively. The plasma concentrations of DMSO were 47.4–129.9 μg/ml, occurring between 15 min and 4 hr. The fractional absorption (F ) during a 24‐hr period was 47.4 (22.7–98.1)%. Following TOP administrations, the median t 1/2ab and t 1/2e were 1.2 (0.49–2.3) and 4.5 (2.1–11.0) hr, respectively. Plasma concentrations were 1.2–8.2 μg/ml occurring at 2–4 hr. Fractional absorption following TOP administration was 0.48 (0.315–4.4)% of the dose administered. Clearance (Cl) of DMSO following the i.v. administration was 3.2 (2.2–6.7) ml hr?1 kg?1. The corrected clearances (ClF ) for p.o. and TOP administrations were 2.9 (1.1–5.5) and 4.5 (0.52–18.2) ml hr?1 kg?1.  相似文献

The alleviation of pain and prevention of suffering are key aspects of animal welfare. Unfortunately, analgesic drugs are not available for all species. White rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum ), representing one of such species, which survive poaching attempts inflicted with severe facial injuries and gunshot wounds, nonetheless require analgesic support. To improve treatment conditions, this study explored the use of carprofen for the treatment of pain and inflammation in white rhinoceros. The pharmacokinetics of 1 mg/kg intramuscular carprofen was evaluated in six healthy white rhinoceros. The half‐life of λz and mean residence time was 105.71 ± 15.67 and 155.01 ± 22.46 hr, respectively. The area under the curve and the maximum carprofen concentration were 904.61 ± 110.78 μg ml?1 hr?1 and 5.77 ± 0.63 μg/ml, respectively. Plasma TXB 2 inhibition demonstrated anti‐inflammatory properties and indicated that carprofen may be effective for a minimum of 48 hr in most animals. With its long half‐life further indicating that a single dose could be effective for several days, we suggest that carprofen may be a useful drug for the treatment of white rhinoceros.  相似文献
