The plasma disposition of fenbendazole (FBZ), oxfendazole (OFZ) and albendazole (ABZ); and the enantiospecific disposition of OFZ, and ABZSO produced were investigated following an oral administration (50 mg/kg) in dogs. Blood samples were collected from 1 to 120 h post-administration. The plasma samples were analysed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The plasma concentration of FBZ, OFZ, ABZ and their metabolites were significantly different from each other and depended on the drug administered. The sulphone metabolite (FBZSO2) of FBZ was not detected in any plasma samples and the parent molecule ABZ did not reach quantifiable concentrations following FBZ and ABZ administration, respectively. OFZ and its sulphone metabolite attained a significantly higher plasma concentration and remained much longer in plasma compared with FBZ and ABZ and their respective metabolites. The maximum plasma concentrations (Cmax), area under the concentration time curve (AUC) and mean residence time (MRT) of parent OFZ were more than 30, 68 and 2 times those of FBZ, respectively. The same parameters for ABZSO were also significantly greater than those of FBZSO. The ratio for total AUCs of both the parent drug and the metabolites were 1:42:7 for following FBZ, OFZ and ABZ administration, respectively. The enantiomers were never in racemic proportions and (+) enantiomers of both OFZ and ABZSO were predominant in plasma. The AUC of (+) enantiomers of OFZ and ABZSO was, respectively more than three and seven times larger than that of (-) enantiomers of both molecules. It is concluded that the plasma concentration of OFZ was substantially greater compared with FBZ and ABZ. The data on the pharmacokinetic profile of OFZ presented here may contribute to evaluate its potential as an anthelmintic drug for parasite control in dogs.  相似文献

The comparative plasma disposition kinetics of albendazole (ABZ), fenbendazole (FBZ) and oxfendazole (OFZ) following their oral administration (5 mg/kg) to adult sheep was characterized. Jugular blood samples were taken serially over a 144 h period and plasma was analysed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for ABZ, ABZ sulphoxide (ABZSO) and ABZ sulphone (ABZSO2) (ABZ treatment), and for FBZ, OFZ and FBZ sulphone (FBZSO2) (FBZ and OFZ treatments). While the ABZ parent drug was not detected at any time post-treatment, ABZSO and ABZSO2 were the analytes recovered in plasma, after oral administration of ABZ to sheep. The active ABZSO metabolite was the main analyte recovered in plasma (between 0.25 and 60h post-treatment), accounting for 71 % of the total AUC. FBZ, OFZ and FBZSO2 were the analytes detected in plasma following the oral administration of both FBZ and OFZ to sheep. Low concentrations of FBZ were found in plasma between 4 (FBZ treatment) or 8 h (OFZ treatment) and 72 h post-treatment. The plasma profile of each analyte followed a similar pattern after both treatments; OFZ being the main component detected in plasma. The plasma disposition of ABZ metabolites was markedly different to that of FBZ derivatives. ABZSO exhibited faster absorption and a higher Cmax than OFZ (both treatments). Furthermore, while ABZSO declined relatively rapidly in plasma reaching non-detectable concentrations at 60 h post-ABZ administration, OFZ was found in plasma for up to 120 (FBZ treatment) and 144 h (OFZ treatment). The extended detection of OFZ in plasma in both treatments correlated with the prolonged t1/2β (18 h) and mean residence time (MRT) (30–33 h) obtained for this metabolite compared to those of ABZSO (t1/2β= (7.0 h); MRT= 12.5 h). These differences between the disposition of ABZ and FBZ metabolites may account for differences in their patterns of efficacy and tissue residues.  相似文献

The current experiments correlate the disposition kinetics of albendazole (ABZ) following its intravenous (i.v.) and intraruminal (i.r.) administrations to Moniezia spp.-infected sheep, with the pattern of drug/metabolite uptake by tapeworms collected from treated animals. The ex vivo uptake pattern of ABZ and albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) by the same cestode parasite was also investigated. Naturally infected (Moniezia spp.) Corriedale lambs were treated with ABZ by either i.v. (Group A, n = 15) or i.r. (Group B, n = 15) administration at 7.5 mg/kg. Plasma and abomasal fluid samples were obtained over a 120-h period. Two animals per group were killed at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 6 h post-treatment; parasite material (tapeworms), bile and intestinal fluid samples were recovered. Furthermore, Moniezia spp. tapeworms obtained from sheep killed at the local abattoir were incubated with either ABZ or ABZSO for different time periods in a Kreb's Ringer Tris buffer (ex vivo experiments). Samples were analysed by high performance liquid chromatography for ABZ, ABZSO and albendazole sulphone (ABZSO2). ABZ plasma concentrations decreased rapidly and were not detectable beyond 10 h following i.v. administration. ABZSO and ABZSO2 were the metabolites recovered in plasma after both treatments. ABZ and its metabolites were extensively distributed to the digestive tract, mainly into the abomasal fluid, after the i.v. and i.r. administrations. The parent drug and its active ABZSO metabolite were recovered in tapeworms collected from both i.v. and i.r. treated lambs. However, the availability of both ABZ and ABZSO was higher in parasite material recovered from i.v. treated animals. The uptake of ABZ by the cestode parasite, both in vivo and ex vivo, was significantly greater than that of its sulphoxide metabolite, which agrees with the higher lipophilicity of the parent drug.  相似文献

Netobimin (NTB) was administered orally to ewes at 20 mg/kg bodyweight. Blood and faecal samples were collected from 1 to 120 h post-treatment and analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Using a chiral phase-based HPLC, plasma disposition of albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) enantiomers produced was also determined. Neither NTB nor albendazole (ABZ) was present and only ABZSO and albendazole sulphone (ABZSO2) metabolites were detected in the plasma samples. Maximum plasma concentrations (C<max) of ABZSO (4.1 ± 0.7 μg/ml) and ABZSO2 (1.1 ± 0.4 μg/ml) were detected at (t max) 14.7 and 23.8 h, respectively following oral administration of netobimin. The area under the curve (AUC) of ABZSO (103.8 ± 22.8 (μg h)/ml) was significantly higher than that ABZSO2(26.3± 10.1 (μg h)/ml) (p<0.01). (−)−ABZSO and (+)-ABZSO enantiomers were never in racemate proportions in plasma. The AUC of (+)-ABZSO (87.8±20.3 (μg h)/ml) was almost 6 times larger than that of (−)−ABZSO (15.5 ±5.1 (μg h)/ml) (p < 0.001). Netobimin was not detected, and ABZ was predominant and its AUC was significantly higher than that of ABZSO and ABZSO2, following NTB administration in faecal samples (p > 0.01). Unlike in the plasma samples, the proportions of the enantiomers of ABZSO were close to racemic and the ratio of the faecal AUC of (−)−ABZSO (172.22 ±57.6 (μg h)/g) and (+)-ABZSO (187.19 ±63.4 (μg h)/g) was 0.92. It is concluded that NTB is completely converted to ABZ by the gastrointestinal flora and absorbed ABZ is completely metabolized to its sulphoxide and sulphone metabolites by first-pass effects. The specific behaviour of the two enantiomers probably reflects different enantioselectivity of the enzymatic systems of the liver that are responsible for sulphoxidation and sulphonation of ABZ.  相似文献

The plasma disposition kinetics of albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO), ((+)ABZSO and (–)ABZSO) and its sulphone metabolite (ABZSO2) were investigated in adult sheep. Six Corriedale sheep received albendazole sulphoxide by intravenous injection at 5 mg/kg live weight. Jugular blood samples were taken serially for 72 h and the plasma was analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for albendazole (ABZ), ABZ sulphoxide (ABZSO) and albendazole sulphone (ABZSO2). Albendazole was not detected in the plasma at any time after the treatment, ABZSO and ABZSO2 being the main metabolites detected between 10 min and 48 h after treatment. A biexponential plasma concentration versus time curve was observed for both ABZSO and ABZSO2 following the intravenous treatment. The plasma AUC values for ABZSO and ABZSO2 were 52.0 and 10.8 (g.h)/ml, respectively. The ABZSO2 metabolite was measurable in plasma between 10 min and 48 h after administration of ABZSO, reaching a peak concentration of 0.38 g/ml at 7.7 h after treatment. Using a chiral phase-based HPLC method, a biexponential plasma concentration versus time curve was observed for both ABZSO enantiomers. The total body clearance was higher for the (–) than for the (+) enantiomer, the values being 270.6 and 147.75 (ml/h)/kg, respectively. The elimination half-life of the (–) enantiomer was shorter than that of the (+) enantiomer, the values being 4.31 and 8.33 h, respectively. The enantiomeric ratio (+)ABZSO/(–)ABZSO at t 0 was close to unity. However, the ratio in the plasma increased with time.  相似文献

The gastrointestinal (GI) distribution and plasma disposition kinetics of alberidazole (ABZ) metabolites after oral administration of netobirnin (NTB) to cattle were studied. Eight Holstein steers (150–180 kg) were surgically fitted with permanent cannulae in the rumen, abomasum and ileum. After post-surgical recovery, the ariinials were treated orally with a suspension of neto1)imin zwitterion (400 mg/ml) at 20 nig/kg. Jugular blood and ruminal, abomasal arid ileal fluid samples were taken serially over a 96 h period and analysed by HPLC for NTB and its metabolites, including ABZ, ABZ sulphoxide (ABZSO), AH% sulphone (ABZSO?) and amino-albendazole sulphone (NHp4BZSOy). N T B parent drug was only fonnd in the G I tract and for only 12–18 h post-treatment. ABZSO and ABZSOp were the main metabolites found in plasma, being present for 30–36 h. These metabolites were exchanged between plasma and different GI fluids and were greatly concentrated in the abomasum. This phenornenori may account for the presence of ABZ, ABZSO and ABZSO? in the GI tract f'or 72 h post-treatment despite the fact that ABZ was riot detected in plasma and ABZSO and ABZSO.;, were detected for only 30–36 h in plasma. The presence o f ABZ and ABZSO in the abomasum and intestine for this extended period of time is probably relevant for anthelmintic efficacy against GI parasites. The NH2 ABZSO2 metabolite was detected in plasma, abomasum and ileum and its disposition kinetics were characterized for the first time.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetic behaviour of netobimin and its metabolites in sheep   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The pharmacokinetics and the profile of urine excretion of netobimin (NTB) and its metabolites were investigated after its intraruminal (i.r.) and subcutaneous (s.c.) administration to sheep at 20 mg/kg. Plasma and urine concentrations of NTB, albendazole (ABZ), albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) and albendazole sulphone (ABZSO2) were measured serially over a 120-h period by HPLC. NTB showed a similar pharmacokinetic profile in both treatments, being detected between 0.5 and 12 h post-treatment, but the tmax was achieved significantly earlier (P less than 0.05) after s.c. treatment. ABZ was detected in plasma only after i.r. treatment, resulting in a low area under the curve (AUC). The peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and AUC for ABZSO and ABZSO2 were significantly higher after i.r. administration of NTB. In both treatments, the ABZSO Cmax was reached earlier than the ABZSO2 Cmax. The ratio of AUC ABZSO2:ABZSO was higher following s.c. administration (1.33) than following i.r. administration (0.35). The percentages of total dose excreted in the urine as NTB, ABZ, ABZSO and ABZSO2 were 17.05 (i.r.) and 8.16 (s.c.). There was a less efficient conversion of NTB into ABZ metabolites after s.c. administration. The detection of ABZ in plasma and the high ABZSO AUC obtained after i.r. treatment may be of major importance for anthelmintic efficacy.  相似文献

The effects of modulation of liver microsomal sulphoxidation on the disposition kinetics of netobimin (NTB) metabolites were investigated in sheep. A zwitterion suspension of NTB was given orally at 7.5 mg/kg to sheep either alone (control treatment) or co-administered with methimazole (MTZ) orally (NTB + MTZ oral treatment) or intra-muscularly (NTB + MTZ i.m.) at 3 mg/kg. Blood samples were taken serially over a 72 h period and plasma was analysed by HPLC for NTB and its major metabolites, i.e. albendazole (ABZ), albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) and albendazole sulphone (ABZSO2). Only trace amounts of NTB parent drug and ABZ were detected in the earliest samples after either treatment. There were significant modifications to the disposition kinetics of ABZSO in the presence of MTZ. ABZSO elimination half-life increased from 7.27 h (control treatment) to 14.57 h (NTB + MTZ oral) and to 11.39 h (NTB + MTZ i.m.). ABZSO AUCs were significantly higher (P less than 0.05) for the NTB + MTZ oral treatment (+55%) and for the NTB + MTZ i.m. treatment (+61%), compared with the NTB alone treatment. The mean residence times for ABZSO were 12.66 +/- 0.68 h (control treatment), 18.85 +/- 2.35 h (NTB + MTZ oral) and 17.02 +/- 0.90 h (NTB + MTZ i.m.). There were no major changes in the overall pharmacokinetics of ABZSO2 for the concomitant MTZ treatments. However, delayed appearance of this metabolite in the plasma resulted in longer ABZSO2 lag times and a delayed Tmax for treatments with MTZ.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Suárez, G., Alvarez, L., Castells, D., Correa, O., Fagiolino, P., Lanusse, C. Comparative drug systemic exposure and clinical efficacy against resistant nematodes in lambs treated with different albendazole formulations. J. vet. Pharmacol. Therap. 34 , 557–564. A pharmaco‐parasitological assessment of four different albendazole (ABZ) formulations was carried out in lambs infected with multiple resistant gastrointestinal (GI) nematodes. The comparative drug systemic exposure profiles (ABZ sulphoxide plasma concentrations) and anthelmintic efficacies (clinical endpoint measured through the faecal nematode eggs reduction counts) were determined for a reference formulation (RF) and three different test (T1, T2, T3) generic ABZ preparations. Fifty (50) Corriedale lambs naturally infected with multiple resistant GI nematodes were allocated into five experimental groups (n = 10). Animals in each group received treatment with either the RF, one of the test ABZ formulations (5 mg/kg by the intraruminal route) or were kept as untreated control. Blood samples were collected over 48 h post‐treatment. ABZ parent drug was not recovered in the bloodstream. The ABZ sulphoxide (ABZSO) and sulphone (ABZSO2) metabolites were measured in plasma by ultraviolet high‐performance liquid chromatography over 36–48 h post‐treatment. A faecal nematode egg count reduction test (FECRT) was performed at day 10th post‐treatment to lambs from all treated and untreated groups, which indicated the predominance of nematodes with high level of resistance to ABZ. Both ABZSO Cmax and AUC0–LOQ values obtained for the RF (pioneer product) were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than those obtained for the T1 and T3 preparations. Based on the currently available bioequivalence criteria, the test (generic) ABZ formulations under evaluation could not be considered equivalent to the RF regarding the rate (Cmax) and extent (AUC0–LOD) of drug absorption (indirectly estimated through the ABZSO metabolite). A large variation in nematode egg counts did not permit to obtain statistically significant differences among formulations. However, a favourable trend in the efficacy against the most resistant nematodes was observed for the formulations with the highest ABZSO systemic exposure.  相似文献

Pharmacokinetic profiles of the major metabolites of netobimin were investigated in calves after oral administration of the compound (20 mg/kg) as a zwitterion suspension and trisamine salt solution in a two-way cross-over design. Blood samples were taken serially over a 72-h period and plasma was analysed by HPLC for netobimin (NTB) and its metabolites, including albendazole (ABZ), albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) and albendazole sulphone (ABZSO2). NTB was occasionally detected in plasma between 0.5 and 1.0 h post-treatment. ABZ was not detectable at any time. ABZSO was detected from 0.5-0.75 h up to 32 h post-administration, with a Cmax for the zwitterion suspension of 1.21 +/- 0.13 micrograms/ml and AUC of 18.55 +/- 1.45 micrograms.h/ml, respectively, which were significantly higher (P less than 0.01) than the Cmax (0.67 +/- 0.12 micrograms/ml) and AUC (8.57 +/- 0.91 micrograms.h/ml) for the trisamine solution. ABZSO2 was detected in plasma between 0.75 and 48 h post-administration. The zwitterion suspension resulted in a Cmax (2.91 +/- 0.10 micrograms/ml) and AUC (51.67 +/- 1.95 micrograms.h/ml) for ABZSO2, which were significantly higher (P less than 0.01) than those obtained for the trisamine solution (Cmax = 1.67 +/- 0.11 micrograms/ml and AUC = 22.77 +/- 1.09 micrograms.h/ml). The ratio of AUC for ABZSO2/ABZSO was 2.92 +/- 0.26 (zwitterion) and 2.80 +/- 0.20 (trisamine). The MRT for ABZSO2 was significantly longer (P less than 0.01) after treatment with the zwitterion suspension than after treatment with the trisamine solution.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The gastrointestinal absorption of most drugs follows a first-order kinetics, whereby a constant fraction of the total drug is absorbed in each equal time interval. Although this related absorption principle is applicable to the most of the therapeutically used drugs, it remains unclear for poorly water-soluble compounds such as the benzimidazole anthelmintics in ruminants. The goal of the current work was to characterize the albendazole (ABZ) metabolites plasma disposition kinetics after ABZ administration at different dosages to nematode-infected lambs. Eighteen Corriedale lambs artificially infected with a resistant Haemonchus contortus strain were allocated into three groups and intraruminally treated with ABZ at either 5 (ABZ(5)), 15 (ABZ(15)) or 45 (ABZ(45)) mg/kg. Blood samples were collected up to 120 h post-treatment, and the collected plasma was analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography. The estimated pharmacokinetic parameters were statistically compared using parametric and nonparametric tests. None of the animals involved in the current trial showed any adverse events during the study. While ABZ parent drug was not recovered in the bloodstream, the area under the concentration vs time curve (AUC) of the active ABZ-sulphoxide (ABZSO) metabolite increased significantly (P<0.05) from 21.0 (ABZ(5)) up to 158.6 (ABZ(15)) and 389.7 μg·h/mL (ABZ(45)), which indicates some type of nonproportionality in the relationship between dose level and drug systemic exposure. The overall kinetic disposition of the inactive sulphone metabolite did not change after treatment at threefold the therapeutic ABZ dosage. However, significantly (P<0.05) higher AUC, C(max) and mean residence time values were observed after the administration of the highest dosage level. The higher dosages accounted for a significantly (P<0.05) enhancement of the ABZSO peak plasma concentration, which were obtained at delayed times post-treatment. High correlations between AUC(0-LOQ) and C(max) and nematode counts were observed, with Spearman's coefficients of -0.83 and -0.84, respectively. The results obtained in the current experiment show that increasing the dose of ABZ in sheep is clearly associated with enhanced plasma ABZ metabolites exposure. The data showed a nonproportionality on the gastrointestinal absorption of ABZ in nematode-infected lambs.  相似文献

This study aimed to determine the plasma disposition and faecal excretion of netobimin (NTB) and its respective metabolites as well as the efficacy against strongyles in horses following oral administration. Netobimin (10 mg/kg) was administered orally to 8 horses. Blood and faecal samples were collected from 1 to 120 h post-treatment and analysed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Using a chiral phase-based HPLC, plasma disposition of ABZSO enantiomers produced was also determined. Faecal strongyle egg counts (EPG) were performed by a modified McMaster’s technique before and after the treatment. Neither NTB nor ABZ were present and only albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) and sulphone metabolites (ABZSO2) were detected in the plasma samples. Maximum plasma concentration of ABZSO (0.53 ± 0.14 μg/ml) and ABZSO2 (0.36 ± 0.09 μg/ml) were observed at (tmax) 10.50 and 19.50 h, respectively following administration of NTB. The area under the curve (AUC) of the two metabolites was similar to each other. Netobimin was not detected, and ABZ was predominant in faecal samples. The maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of (−)ABZSO was significantly higher than (+)ABZSO, but the area under the curves (AUCs) of the enantiomer were not significantly different each other in plasma samples. The enantiomers of ABZSO were close to racemate in the faecal samples analyzed. Netobimin reduced the EPG by 100%, 100%, 77%, 80% and 75% 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 weeks post-treatment, respectively. The specific behaviour of the two enantiomers probably reflects different enantioselectivity of the enzymatic systems of the liver which are responsible for sulphoxidation and sulphonation of ABZ. Considering the pharmacokinetic and efficacy parameters NTB could be used as an anthelmintic in horses.  相似文献

Lifschitz, A., Virkel G., Mastromarino, M. and Lanusse C., 1997. Enhanced plasma availability of the metabolites of albendazole in fasted adult sheep. Veterinary Research Communications, 21 (3), 201-211The influence of fasting prior to treatment and of dosing rate on the plasma availability and disposition kinetics of albendazole (ABZ) and its sulphoxide (ABZSO) and sulphone (ABZSO2) metabolites was studied in adult sheep grazing on pasture. A micronized suspension of ABZ was administered orally at either 7.5 mg/kg (group A) or 11.3 mg/kg (group C) to sheep fed ad libitum, and at 7.5 mg/kg to sheep subjected to a 24 h fasting period prior to treatment (group B). Blood samples were taken serially over 96 h after treatment, and the plasma was analysed for ABZ and its metabolites by high-performance liquid chromatography. ABZSO and ABZSO2 were recovered from the plasma. Fasting induced marked modifications in the pharmacokinetic behaviour of the ABZ metabolites in sheep. An extended absorption process, with a delayed peak concentration in the plasma, was observed for both metabolites in the fasted sheep. Significantly higher area under the curve (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) values were obtained for both metabolites in the fasted animals compared to those fed ad libitum. Delayed elimination with prolonged detection in plasma was also observed in the fasted sheep. Treatment with ABZ at 7.5 mg/kg in the starved animals resulted in bioequivalence to the administration of the compound at a 50% higher dose rate (11.3 mg/kg) in the fed animals. It is suggested that fasting enhances ABZ dissolution and absorption by delaying its passage down the digestive tract.  相似文献

The benzimidazole (BZD) anthelmintics, netobimin (NTB) pro-drug and albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) are reduced to albendazole (ABZ) by ruminal microflora. The aim of the current work was to evaluate the influence of the ionophore monensin (MON) on the in vitro biotransformation of NTB and ABZSO by sheep ruminal fluid. Ruminal fluid, collected from Corriedale sheep, was preincubated (24 h) either without (control) or with known MON concentrations (0.5, 1.5 and 3.0 microg/mL) at 38 degrees C under a CO2 atmosphere. Afterwards, aliquots from both MON-pretreated and control ruminal fluid samples were incubated (30 and 60 min) with 2 microg/mL of either NTB or ABZSO. Incubated samples were chemically extracted and analysed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography to quantify the metabolites formed. The rate of ABZ production after 30 min of NTB incubation with control ruminal fluid was 0.023 microg/min. Conversely, the rates of ABZ formation were significantly (P<0.05) lower (0.009, 0.011 and 0.013 microg/min) when NTB was incubated with ruminal fluid pretreated with MON (at 0.5, 1.5 and 3.0 microg/mL, respectively). After both incubation periods, the reduction of ABZSO to ABZ was 22 to 70% lower when the ruminal fluid was preincubated with the different MON concentrations. The lower ABZ production observed in the presence of MON may result in a modified availability of this molecule in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and hence, on its anthelmintic efficacy against GI nematodes.  相似文献

Bistoletti, M., Alvarez, L., Lanusse, C., Moreno, L. Disposition kinetics of albendazole and metabolites in laying hens. J. vet. Pharmacol. Therap.  36 , 161–168. An increasing prevalence of roundworm parasites in poultry, particularly in litter‐based housing systems, has been reported. However, few anthelmintic drugs are commercially available for use in avian production systems. The anthelmintic efficacy of albendazole (ABZ) in poultry has been demonstrated well. The goal of this work was to characterize the ABZ and metabolites plasma disposition kinetics after treatment with different administration routes in laying hens. Twenty‐four laying hens Plymouth Rock Barrada were distributed into three groups and treated with ABZ as follows: intravenously at 10 mg/kg (ABZ i.v.); orally at the same dose (ABZ oral); and in medicated feed at 10 mg/kg·day for 7 days (ABZ feed). Blood samples were taken up to 48 h posttreatment (ABZ i.v. and ABZ oral) and up to 10 days poststart feed medication (ABZ feed). The collected plasma samples were analyzed using high‐performance liquid chromatography. ABZ and its albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) and ABZSO2 metabolites were recovered in plasma after ABZ i.v. administration. ABZ parent compound showed an initial concentration of 16.4 ± 2.0 μg/mL, being rapidly metabolized into the ABZSO and ABZSO2 metabolites. The ABZSO maximum concentration (Cmax) (3.10 ± 0.78 μg/mL) was higher than that of ABZSO2Cmax (0.34 ± 0.05 μg/mL). The area under the concentration vs time curve (AUC) for ABZSO (21.9 ± 3.6 μg·h/mL) was higher than that observed for ABZSO2 and ABZ (7.80 ± 1.02 and 12.0 ± 1.6 μg·h/mL, respectively). The ABZ body clearance (Cl) was 0.88 ± 0.11 L·h/kg with an elimination half‐life (T1/2el) of 3.47 ± 0.73 h. The T1/2el for ABZSO and ABZSO2 were 6.36 ± 1.50 and 5.40 ± 1.90 h, respectively. After ABZ oral administration, low ABZ plasma concentrations were measured between 0.5 and 3 h posttreatment. ABZ was rapidly metabolized to ABZSO (Cmax, 1.71 ± 0.62 μg/mL) and ABZSO2 (Cmax, 0.43 ± 0.04 μg/mL). The metabolite systemic exposure (AUC) values were 18.6 ± 2.0 and 10.6 ± 0.9 μg·h/mL for ABZSO and ABZSO2, respectively. The half‐life values after ABZ oral were similar (5.91 ± 0.60 and 5.57 ± 1.19 h for ABZSO and ABZSO2, respectively) to those obtained after ABZ i.v. administration. ABZ was not recovered from the bloodstream after ABZ feed administration. AUC values of ABZSO and ABZSO2 were 61.9 and 92.4 μg·h/mL, respectively. The work reported here provides useful information on the pharmacokinetic behavior of ABZ after both i.v. and oral administrations in hens, which is a useful first step to evaluate its potential as an anthelmintic tool for use in poultry.  相似文献

Two prochiral sulphide drugs, fenbendazole (FBZ) and albendazole (ABZ) were administered orally to sheep. Blood samples were analysed for parent drug and S-oxidation metabolites and the chirality of the sulphoxide metabolites was determined. The plasma concentrations of the enantiomers of the sulphoxides were never a racemate. On the contrary, the ratios were greater than 1 as soon as the sulphoxide compounds could be detected in plasma. They subsequently increased linearly throughout the time course of the kinetics, reaching the level 86:14 after FBZ and 95:5 after ABZ treatment. The major enantiomer represented 74% and 86% of the total AUC of SO.FBZ and SO.ABZ, respectively.  相似文献

The comparative concentration profiles of the (+) and (-) albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) enantiomers obtained in plasma and in selected target tissues/fluids after intravenous (i.v.) administration of a racemic formulation of ricobendazole (RBZ) to cattle were characterised. Fourteen Holstein calves received RBZ (racemic solution, 150 mg/mL) by i.v. administration at 7.5 mg/kg. Jugular blood samples were collected over 48 h post-treatment (plasma kinetic trial) and two animals were sacrificed at either 4, 12, 20, 28 or 32 h post-treatment to obtain samples of abomasal/small intestine mucosal tissue, abomasal/small intestine fluids, bile, liver and lung tissue (tissue distribution study). The (-)ABZSO enantiomer was depleted significantly faster from plasma compared with the (+)ABZSO antipode. The plasma AUC for (+)ABZSO (38.3 microg. h/mL) was significantly higher (P < 0.05) compared with that obtained for (-)ABZSO (20.5 microg. h/mL). The (+)ABZSO enantiomer was the predominant antipode measured in bile, abomasal fluid and abomasal mucosa. For instance, at 12 h post-treatment the (+)/(-) concentration ratios were: 12.9 (plasma), 1.62 (abomasal mucosa), 13.0 (abomasal fluid), 2.92 (intestinal mucosa), 9.87 (intestinal fluid) and 21.5 (bile). No marked differences between the concentration profiles of both enantiomers were observed in the liver tissue. Albendazole (ABZ) was recovered from the liver, lung and gastrointestinal (GI) mucosal tissues of RBZ-treated calves up to 32 h post-treatment, probably produced by a GI microflora-mediated sulphoreduction of RBZ. An enantioselective kinetic behaviour may account both for the faster depletion of the (-) enantiomer and for the higher availabilities of the (+) antipode observed in plasma and in most of the tissues/fluids investigated. The simultaneous evaluation of the plasma kinetics and tissue concentration profiles of both enantiomeric forms reported here, may help to interpret the relationship between chiral behaviour and pharmacological action for sulphoxide derivatives of benzimidazole (BZD) methylcarbamate anthelmintics.  相似文献

The comparative in vitro sulphoreduction of the (+) and (-) enantiomers of albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) and oxfendazole (OFZ) by ruminal fluid obtained from sheep and cattle, was investigated, under anaerobic conditions, in this study. Ruminal fluid samples were obtained from Holstein steers fitted with a permanent rumen fistula and from Corriedale lambs via an oesophageal tube. Albendazole sulphoxide, incubated as either the racemic (rac) mixture or as each individual enantiomeric form, was extensively sulphoreduced to form albendazole (ABZ) by ruminal fluid from both species. The concentrations of ABZ formed at different incubation times were between 55 and 158% greater after the incubation of cattle ruminal fluid with (+) ABZSO, compared with that produced when (-) ABZSO was the incubated substrate. Similarly, the concentrations of ABZ were 1.3--3.0-fold higher when (+) ABZSO was incubated with sheep ruminal fluid. Significantly higher rates of depletion were observed for the (+) enantiomeric form when ABZSO was incubated with ruminal fluid from both species. The rates of ABZ formation from both ABZSO enantiomeric forms were significantly higher in sheep compared with cattle ruminal fluid. Fenbendazole (FBZ) was the metabolite formed after the incubation of the racemic form of OFZ with ruminal fluid obtained from both species. The metabolic profile of both OFZ enantiomers followed a similar pattern to that observed for ABZSO enantiomers. A bi-directional chiral inversion of one enantiomer into its antipode was observed. The (+) enantiomer appeared in the incubation medium when (-) ABZSO was the incubated substrate, and also the (-) antipode was detected after (+) ABZSO incubation with ruminal fluid obtained from both species. The results reported here demonstrate an enantioselective ruminal sulphoreduction of ABZSO and OFZ (substrate enantioselectivity). These findings contribute to interpret the chiral behaviour of benzimidazole-sulphoxide anthelmintics.  相似文献

The influence of different pre- and post-treatment fasting periods on the plasma availability and disposition kinetics of albendazole (ABZ) and its sulphoxide metabolite (ABZSO) in cattle was investigated. The effect of fasting on the distribution of ABZ and ABZSO to different target tissues/fluids was also characterised. In Experiment I, 35 parasite-free Holstein calves were divided into seven groups according to the following feeding conditions and treated intraruminally with ABZ (10 mg/kg): control group (fed ad libitum), 24 h fasting either prior to (24 h pre-) or post (24 h post-) treatment, 24 h fasting with either 6 (6 h pre + 18 h post) or 12 h (12 h pre + 12 h post-) of feed restriction prior to treatment, 12 h fasting either prior to (12 h pre-) or post (12 h post) treatment. In Experiment II, calves from the same pool of animals were subjected to a 24 h fasting period prior to the same ABZ treatment and killed (two animals) at either 24, 36 or 48 h post-administration to obtain samples of abomasal/intestinal mucosa and fluid contents, bile and lungs. Plasma (Experiment I) and tissues/fluids (Experiment II) samples were analysed by HPLC. All the fasting periods investigated induced marked changes to the plasma availability and disposition kinetics of the ABZSO metabolite. Enhanced plasma availability between 37 and 118%, delayed peak concentrations and extended mean residence times for ABZSO were observed in fasted compared to fed calves. The changes in plasma kinetics, reflecting an altered quantitative gastrointestinal absorption, were reflected in increased availability of ABZ and ABZSO in the target tissues/fluids of fasted calves. The availabilities of ABZ and ABZSO in the gastrointestinal mucosa and fluids in fasted calves were markedly greater than in those fed ad libitum.  相似文献

We evaluated the comparative plasma and abomasal fluid disposition kinetics of albendazole (ABZ) and its metabolites in calves either grazing on pasture or fed a grain-based concentrate diet. Six male Holstein calves (weight 180 to 200 kg) were allowed to graze on lush pasture for three weeks before intraruminal administration of ABZ at 10 mg kg-1(pasture group). After a three-week wash-out period, the same animals were housed and fed on a grain-based concentrate diet for three weeks prior to receiving the same ABZ treatment (concentrate group). Jugular blood and abomasal fluid samples were collected over 120 hours post-treatment. Plasma and abomasal fluid samples were analysed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The digesta transit time was measured using cobalt (Co) as a fluid marker; abomasal fluid and faecal samples were collected and Co concentrations measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Complementary studies of the in vitro dissolution of ABZ particles at different pH values were also conducted. The pH of abomasal fluid collected from animals kept under both feeding conditions was registered. Increased concentrations of ABZ sulphoxide (ABZSO) and sulphone (ABZSO2) in plasma, resulting in significantly higher Cmax and area under the curve (AUC) values for both metabolites, were obtained in calves fed on the concentrate diet compared to those grazing on pasture. Enhanced abomasal fluid levels of ABZ and ABZSO were observed in concentrate-fed calves. The mean retention time of the digestive fluid marker in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract was significantly longer in the animals fed the grain-based diet. The in vitro dissolution of ABZ at a pH value equivalent to that obtained in the abomasum of the concentrate-fed calves (1.75) was significantly greater than that obtained at the pH registered in pasture-fed animals (2.00). The characterisation of the kinetic/metabolic behaviours and the resultant efficacy of antiparasitic drugs in animals reared under different management conditions may be relevant in increasing parasite control in livestock.  相似文献
