The pharmacokinetics of a long‐acting oxytetracycline (OTC) formulation (Liquamycin® LA‐200®) injected intramuscularly (i.m.) at a dose of 20 mg/kg were determined in four calves and 24 sheep to determine if the approved label dose for cattle provided a similar serum time/concentration profile in sheep. The AUC for the calves was 168±14.6 (μg ? h/mL) and was significantly less than the AUC for sheep (209±43 μg ? h/mL). Using the standard two‐stage approach and a one‐compartment model, the mean Cmax for the calves was 5.2±0.8 μg/mL, and for the sheep was 6.1±1.3 μg/mL. The mean terminal phase rate constants were 0.031 and 0.033 h, and the Vdss were 3.3 and 3.08 L/kg for the calves and sheep respectively. Analysis of the data using the standard two‐stage approach, the naive pooled‐data approach and a population model gave very similar results for both the cattle and sheep data. Sheep tissue residues of OTC in serum, liver, kidney, fat, muscle and injection site were measured at 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days after a single i.m. injection of 20 mg/kg OTC. Half‐lives of OTC residues in the tissues were 38.6, 33.4, 28.6, 25.4, 21.3, and 19.9 h for injection site, kidney, muscle, liver, mesenteric fat and renal fat, respectively. The ratio of tissue to serum concentration was fairly consistent at all slaughter times, except for the fat and injection sites. The mean ratios were 1.72, 4.19, 0.11, 0.061, 0.84 and 827 for the liver, kidney, renal fat, mesenteric fat, muscle and injection sites, respectively. The tissue concentrations of OTC residues were below the established cattle tolerances for OTC in liver (6 p.p.m.), muscle (2 p.p.m.) and kidney (12 p.p.m.) by 48 h, and in injection site muscle by 14 days after the single i.m. injection of 20 mg/kg.  相似文献

The depletion of tylosin from edible pig tissues was studied following 5 days of intramuscular (i.m.) administration of 10 mg/kg of tylosin to 16 crossbreed pigs. Animals were slaughtered at intervals after treatment and samples of muscle, kidney, liver, skin+fat, and injection site were collected and analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Seven days after the completion of treatment, the concentration of tylosin in kidney, skin+fat, and at the injection site was higher than the European Union maximal residue limit (MRL) of 100 microg/kg. Tylosin residues in all tissues were below the quantification limit (50 microg/kg) at 10 and 14 days post-treatment.  相似文献

Separate groups of goats were used to determine drug depletion patterns in serum (n=10), tissue (n=20) and milk (n=8) following a single intramuscular (i.m.) dose of 20 mg/kg of a long-acting oxytetracycline (OTC) formulation (Liquamycin LA-200). Milk residues were also determined following a subcutaneous (s.c.) administration of the same product at the same dose. Serum samples were taken for 24 h post-treatment and tissues (fat, liver, kidney, muscle and injection site) collected at 4, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days following injection. Milk from lactating goats was collected every 12 h for 8 days following both the i.m. and s.c. treatments utilizing an intervening 5-week washout period. Residues in serum and tissue were measured using a microbial inhibition assay, while milk residues were measured using both a microbial inhibition assay and a validated HPLC method. The serum pharmacokinetic parameters of OTC in goats were determined, with a mean AUC=67.4 microg h/mL, mean terminal half-life=14.4 h, and apparent clearance=0.33 L/kg h. Tissue half-lives could not be determined with confidence because the collection times provided only two points at which residues could be measured for most tissues. Oxytetracycline residues in all goat tissue samples measured less then cattle tissue tolerance by 96 h postdosing. One-compartment model describing milk depletion data for i.m. and s.c. dosing had terminal slope half-lives of 20.1 and 36.1 h, respectively. By 96 h post-treatment none of the milk samples contained OTC residues in excess of the cattle milk tolerance (0.3 p.p.m.). For both milk and tissue, the upper-bound 99% confidence intervals for the samples taken from goats 96 h postdosing were lower than approved cow milk and tissue tolerances.  相似文献

In an experiment with 12 calves, Aquacycline® in a 5 % (OTC-A5) and a 10 % (OTC-A10) solution, was compared with Terramycin®-100 (OTC-C) by injecting 20 mg OTC/kg bwt. of these preparations in the dewlap and monitoring serum concentrations as well as tissue reactions and residues at the site of injection. All 3 preparations resulted in oxytetracycline (OTC) serum concentrations above 0.5 µg/ml of approximately 60 h. During this period, OTC-A5 resulted in a 39 % and OTC-A10 in a 20 % larger area under the serum concentration-time curve, as compared to OTC-C (P < 0.05). The recorded tissue reaction in the form of swelling during the first week following injection of OTC-A5 averaged 72 % of that after OTC-C (P < 0.01), while the mean swelling after OTC-A10 was 81 % of the corresponding value after OTC-C (P < 0.05). The OTC residue levels at the sites of injection were lower after OTC-A5, but none of the preparations resulted in OTC residues exceeding 0.3 mg at 28 days and about 0.15 mg at 42 days after injection. The pathological changes at the site of injection were somewhat more pronounced in those calves which received OTC-C. Accordingly, these results give some support to the claims that Aquacycline® offers advantages with respect to absorption characteristics and tissue tolerance.  相似文献

After intramuscular (IM) administration (dose 20 mg/kg) of three 20% (Terramycin/LA (product A), Alamycin LA (product B) and Terralon 20% LA (product C) and two 10% oxytetracycline (OTC) formulations (Engemycin 10% (product D) and Oxyject 10% (product E)), to calves, pigs and sheep, the OTC residue concentrations were determined in organs, muscle, fat, plasma, urine and at the injection sites at 10 days post injection (p.i.). At that time the irritation at the injection site was studied, too. The three 20%-formulations (products A, B, C) and one 10%-formulation (product E) induced considerable local irritation in and between the muscles. This was most pronounced in calves and pigs; in sheep the extent of irritation was limited. Ten days after administration of formulations A, B, C and E, OTC residues were found in organs and the OTC recovery at the injection sites varied widely among the three species. Following IM injection of product D minimal tissue irritation and no OTC residues could be detected at the injection site at 10 days p.i. The differences in local tissue irritation and the residue state of the carcass (including injection site) are related to the various solvent systems used in the formulations.  相似文献

The depletion profile of oxytetracycline was studied in healthy sheep after intramuscular administration of Oxysentin 100, given at a dose of 10 mg oxytetracycline per kg body weight once daily for 5 consecutive days. Five medicated sheep were slaughtered at 0, 2, 4, 6, 9 and 12 days postmedication, and injection site, muscle, fat, liver and kidney tissues were sampled and analysed using a liquid chromatographic method, which was fully validated for oxytetracycline and 4-epi-oxytetracycline. At day 0 postmedication, the concentrations of oxytetracycline marker residue (sum of oxytetracycline and 4-epi-oxytetracycline) in all tissues examined were at the mg/kg level. At day 2 postmedication, the concentrations of oxytetracycline marker residue in all injection site and kidney samples examined were higher than the corresponding maximum residue limits (MRLs) established by the European Union, while the concentrations in muscle and liver tissues of two and three out of five animals examined, respectively, were below the corresponding MRLs. At days 4 and 6 postmedication, concentrations of oxytetracycline marker residue above the MRLs were found only in the injection site, whereas at day 9 postmedication, all observations were below the corresponding MRLs.  相似文献

A radioimmunoassay (RIA) method for hexoestrol using an antiserum against hexoestrol-carboxypropyl ether-BSA and H3-hexoestrol was used to measure the concentrations of residues of hexoestrol in 0.1 ml biological fluids and 1 g edible tissues of implanted cattle and sheep. A preliminary ether extraction of biological fluids was necessary before RIA. The ether extract from tissues was further purified by solvent partition and silica gel column chromatography before RIA. Conjugates of hexoestrol were measured after enzymatic hydrolysis to free hexoestrol. In untreated animals residues were either not detected or very low in all tissues except urine from sheep. The method has a lower limit of detection of approximately 0–10 pg/ml for biological fluids in cattle and 20–100 pg/g for tissues in both sheep and cattle but the lower limit of detection in sheep urine was 70–294 pg/ml urine. In two heifers implanted with 60 mg hexoestrol and slaughtered 2 and 7 days after implantation, residues of hexoestrol were detected in all tissues except muscle with highest concentrations between 2 - 17 ng/g in urine, bile and kidney. The concentration of residues in steers which had been implanted with 45 mg or 60 mg hexoestrol and slaughtered at 90 days after implantation were 0, < 50, 46–96 and 200 pg/ml or g of plasma, muscle, liver and urine, respectively. The concentrations of hexoestrol in sheep implanted with 15 ml hexoestrol and slaughtered after 60 days were 70, 0, 964, 3100 and 4074 pg/g or ml of muscle, fat, liver, kidney and urine, respectively. No hexoestrol was found in control untreated cattle and sheep. It was concluded that some residues of hexoestrol were present in the excretory fluids and tissues of cattle and sheep which had been implanted with hexoestrol at the recommended dose and slaughtered after the recommended withdrawal periods. However, the concentrations of hexoestrol in muscle and fat were extremely low or not detectable. The method could be used for the routine screening of animals for treatment with hexoestrol.  相似文献

Healthy gilts and market-ready hogs were administered a single intramuscular (IM) injection of Borgal, a commercial formulation of trimethoprim-sulfadoxine (TMP-SDX), once or twice daily. The objectives were to determine if a newly-developed high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method would be suitable for measuring the residual concentrations of TMP in the plasma of these live animals, and to determine if the administration of this veterinary drug would leave measurable residues in their plasma and tissues at slaughter. Plasma and tissue concentrations of SDX and TMP from these animals were determined over a period of 14 d using thin-layer chromatography/densitometry (TLCD), and the newly-developed HPLC method, respectively. The lowest detectable limit (LDL) for SDX in plasma and tissue was 20 ppb by TLCD. The HPLC method had a LDL of 5 ppb for TMP in plasma and tissue. Both methods were then used to provide baseline data on the absorption and depletion of TMP and SDX from these healthy animals. It was observed that both TMP and SDX were readily absorbed into the blood and tissues, but TMP was eliminated much faster than SDX. No TMP residues were detected in the plasma of any of the gilts at and beyond 21 h after drug administration. Also, no TMP residues were detected in the plasma of any of the market-ready hogs 24 h after drug administration at either the label dose or twice the label dose. Sulfadoxine residues at concentrations above the maximum residue limit (MRL) of 100 ppb were, however, detected in the plasma, muscle, kidney, liver, and injection sites of hogs slaughtered 1 and 3 d after a single IM administration at the label dose. Although SDX residues were still detectable in the lungs, kidney, liver and plasma of some hogs 10 d after administration of the label dose and twice the label dose, these were below the MRL. Postmortem examination revealed necrosis and inflammation at the injection sites, but no visible deposits of the injected drug.  相似文献

A physiologically based pharmacokinetic model (PBPK) for oxytetracycline (OTC) residues in sheep was developed using previously published data from a combined serum pharmacokinetic and tissue residue study [Craigmill et al. (2000) J. Vet. Pharmacol. Ther.23, 345]. Physiological parameters for organ weights and tissue blood flows were obtained from the literature. The tissue/serum partition coefficients for OTC were estimated from the serum and tissue residue data obtained at slaughter. The model was developed to include all of the tissues for which residue data were available (serum, kidney, liver, fat, muscle and injection site), and all of the remaining tissues were combined into a slowly perfused compartment with low permeability. Total body clearance of OTC calculated in the previous study was used as the starting value for clearance in the PBPK model, with the kidney being the only eliminating organ. The model was built using ACSL (Advanced Continuous Simulation Language) Graphic Modeler, and the model was fit to the serum and tissue data using the ACSL Math/Optimizer software (AEgis Technologies Group, Inc., Huntsville, AL, USA). A sensitivity analysis was also performed to determine which parameters had the greatest effect on the goodness of fit. Numerous strategies were tested to model the injection site, and a model providing a biexponential absorption of the drug from the injection bolus gave the best fit to the experimental data. The model was validated using the clearance parameters calculated from the traditional pharmacokinetic model for each individual animal in the PBPK model. This simple PBPK model well predicted OTC residues in sheep tissues after intramuscular dosing with a long-acting preparation and may find use for other species and other veterinary drugs.  相似文献

Defining pharmacokinetic parameters and depletion intervals for antimicrobials used in fish represents important guidelines for future regulation by Brazilian agencies of the use of these substances in fish farming. This article presents a depletion study for oxytetracycline (OTC) in tilapias (Orechromis niloticus) farmed under tropical conditions during the winter season. High performance liquid chromatography, with fluorescence detection for the quantitation of OTC in tilapia fillets and medicated feed, was developed and validated. The depletion study with fish was carried out under monitored environmental conditions. OTC was administered in the feed for five consecutive days at daily dosages of 80 mg/kg body weight. Groups of ten fish were slaughtered at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 15, 20, and 25 days after medication. After the 8th day posttreatment, OTC concentrations in the tilapia fillets were below the limit of quantitation (13 ng/g) of the method. Linear regression of the mathematical model of data analysis presented a coefficient of 0.9962. The elimination half-life for OTC in tilapia fillet and the withdrawal period were 1.65 and 6 days, respectively, considering a percentile of 99% with 95% of confidence and a maximum residue limit of 100 ng/g. Even though the study was carried out in the winter under practical conditions where water temperature varied, the results obtained are similar to others from studies conducted under controlled temperature.  相似文献

Oxytetracycline (OTC) concentrations on plasma and milk of dairy cows were determined following a single intramuscular injection of five oxytetracycline-20% formulations at a dosage of approximately 10 mg/kg. For obtaining pharmacokinetic reference parameters, one 10% OTC formulation was administered intravenously. The five 20% formulations were compared and evaluated pharmacokinetically with respect to absorption rate, peak plasma and milk OTC concentrations, biological half-life, and relative bioavailability. The mean maximum plasma OTC concentrations varied between 4.5 and 6.8 micrograms/ml and were achieved between 5 and 10 h p.i., depending on the formulation involved. The mean maximum milk concentrations, ranging from 1.12 to 1.92 micrograms/ml, were achieved 12 to 24 h p.i. A plasma OTC concentration exceeding 0.5 microgram/ml was maintained for 48 h to 70 h, and in milk for 33 to 49 h, depending on the formulation involved. Formulations exhibiting the lowest clinically noticeable irritation showed the highest peak plasma OTC concentrations and the best bioavailability. Among the formulations the calculated withholding periods for milk were in the range of 3 to 4 days and for edible tissues of 9 to 14 days. The OTC and creatinine clearances were significantly correlated to each other and to the urinary flow. OTC was excreted predominantly by glomerular filtration, partly by tubular secretion minus urogenital (distal renal tubuli and bladder) reabsorption.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine for two commercial preparations of oxytetracycline (OTC) the pharmacokinetic behaviour, the presence of detectable milk residues and the penetration in milk of OTC administered by intravenous (IV) (conventional formulation [CF]) and intramuscular (IM) routes (CF and long-acting [LA] formulations) in goats producing milk. The effects of these formulations on plasma activity values of creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were also determined as indicators of tissue damage. PROCEDURE: Five healthy lactating goats producing 1.5+/-0.5 L/d milk and weighing 56.0+/-4.8 kg were used. Single doses of OTC chlorhydrate (CF) were administered (20 mg OTC/kg) by IV (Trial 1 IV) and IM (Trial 1 IM) routes and OTC dehydrate (LA) by the IM route. The same goats were first given IV CF, then IM CF followed by IM LA with 3 weeks between each treatment. Blood and milk samples were taken. The quantification of OTC was performed by HPLC and the plasma activities of CK and LDH enzymes were determined by spectrophotometry. The presence of OTC residues in milk was determined by a commercial reagent. The plasma pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using a two-compartment model. RESULTS: Estimates of kinetic variables following IV administration were: Vss= 400.0+/-120.0 mL/kg and CL= 110.0+/-14.0 (mL/h)/kg. The t(fi) for IV= 3.0+/-0.3 h; IM, CF = 10.5+/-2.1 h and IM, LA = 15.1+/-3.1 h. The concentration of OTC in milk at 48 h was: IV= 0.6+/-0.4; IM CF= 1.1+/-0.2 and at 72 h (IM LA)= 0.6+/-0.1 microg/mL and the penetration in milk of OTC was: IV= 70.0+/-18.0; IM CF= 79.0+/-14.0 and IM LA= 66.0+/-6.0%. The areas under the curve of CK and LDH activities in plasma were calculated by the trapezoidal method. Values of CK and LDH IM, LA were greater (P < 0.05) than those observed for IM, CF at 2 and 3 days after administration of the antibiotic. Finally, the bioavailability of OTC CF = 92.0+/-22.0 and LA= 78.0+/-23.0% was suitable for its usage by the IM route in lactating goats. CONCLUSION: Plasma concentration-time values of OTC administered parenterally in production dairy goats showed similar bioavailability for the two pharmaceutical preaprations. The presence of detectable residues in milk indicates that milk should not be used for human consumption for 2 and 3 days after administration of conventional and long-acting formulations, respectively. The increments in CK and LDH activities after the IM administration of LA are consistent with the presence of tissue damage provoked by the pharmaceutical preparations at the injection site.  相似文献

Residues of veterinary drugs have potential implications for human food safety and international trade in animal-derived food commodities. A particular concern is the slow depletion of residues of some injectable formulations from the site of administration. Licensing authorities have adopted different approaches to the human food safety assessment of injection site residues. European agencies apply the maximum residue limit (MRL) for muscle to muscle at the injection site and specify a withdrawal period sufficient to ensure the ingestion of a 300 g portion of muscle, if comprised entirely of injection site tissue, does not exceed the acceptable daily intake. The agencies in Australia, Canada and the USA also exclude injection site residues from the MRL-setting process. These agencies evaluate the risk to consumers posed by potential acute manifestations resulting from the infrequent ingestion of injection site residues based on acute dietary exposure considerations. While all of these approaches protect the safety of consumers, the adoption of different approaches has potential implications for residue surveillance programs in the international trade in meat. In particular, when an exporting country establishes standards for residues at injection sites based on acute dietary exposure considerations and the importing country assesses these residues against the MRL for muscle, the unnecessary condemnation of meat and disruption to market access may result. The latter may represent a potential economical impost to the exporting country. An internationally harmonized approach to the risk analysis of residues of veterinary drugs at injection sites, which protects the safety of consumers and facilitates the international trade in meat, is needed.  相似文献

Summary

Oxytetracycline (OTC) concentrations in plasma and milk of dairy cows were determined following a single intramuscular injection of five oxytetracycline‐20% formulations at a dosage of approximately 10 mg/kg. For obtaining pharmacokinetic reference parameters, one 10% OTC formulation was administered intravenously. The five 20% formulations were compared and evaluated pharmacokinetically with respect to absorption rate, peak plasma and milk OTC concentrations, biological half‐life, and relative bioavailability. The mean maximum plasma OTC concentrations varied between 4.5 and 6.8 μg/ml and were achieved between 5 and 10 h p.i., depending on the formulation involved. The mean maximum milk concentrations, ranging from 1.12 to 1.92 μg/ml, were achieved 12 to 24 h p.i. A plasma OTC concentration exceeding 0.5 μg/ml was maintained for 48 h to 70 h, and in milk for 33 to 49 h, depending on the formulation involved.

Formulations exhibiting the lowest clinically noticeable irritation showed the highest peak plasma OTC concentrations and the best bioavailability. Among the formulations the calculated withholding periods for milk were in the range of 3 to 4 days and for edible tissues of 9 to 14 days. The OTC and creatinine clearances were significantly correlated to each other and to the urinary flow. OTC was excreted predominantly by glomerular filtration, partly by tubular secretion minus urogenital (distal renal tubuli and bladder) reabsorption.  相似文献

The synthetic androgen 17 beta-19-nortestosterone (beta-NT) has been used illegally as a growth promoter in cattle production in the European Union. The elimination of beta-NT and its metabolites in plasma and urine was studied in cattle which had received intramuscular injections of its phenylpropionate ester (NTPP) at either single or multiple sites at a dose rate of 1 mg/kg bodyweight. In both groups, the plasma concentrations of beta-NT, measured by enzyme immunoassay, were consistently greater than the assay's limit of quantification (0.24 ng/ml) during days 1 to 7 of the study. The mean (sd) maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) was significantly greater in the multiply injected animals (4.4 [0.48] v 2.7 [0.15] ng/ml), but other plasma pharmacokinetic parameters, AUC, CL, T1/2 beta, Tmax and MRT, were not significantly different in the two groups. The equivalent urinary concentrations exceeded the limit of quantification of the assay (4.5 ng/ml) for up to 24 days after injection. In a second study, the biliary concentrations of beta-NT and its 17 alpha-epimer (alpha-NT) were measured by gas chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry after cattle were injected intramuscularly at either single or multiple sites with NTPP. Only alpha-NT was detected in bile for up to 62 days after injection at concentrations above the limit of quantification of the assay (0.7 ng/ml). It is concluded that in some animals, intramuscular injections of NTPP at several sites may decrease the period after injection during which free beta-NT and its metabolites are detectable in plasma and urine. After the injection of NTPP, alpha-NT was detected in bile for longer than it was detected in plasma or urine.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To measure the residues of spinosad and chlorhexidine in the tissues of sheep after treatment of blowfly strike. PROCEDURE: Fourteen sheep with natural myiasis and 12 with artificial infestations of Lucilia cuprina larvae had the wool removed over their infestations and were treated with an aerosol wound dressing containing spinosad and chlorhexidine. Sheep were killed up to 14 days after treatment and residues of the chemicals measured in tissues. RESULTS: Chlorhexidine was not detected in any tissue. Residues of spinosad were highest in fat, lowest in muscle and intermediate in liver and kidney. The highest residue detected was 0.2 mg/kg spinosad in perirenal fat 7 days after generous treatment of a sheep with a large fly strike. Residues of spinosad in fat peaked 3 to 7 days after treatment and 1 to 3 days after treatment in liver and kidney. CONCLUSION: These studies present a realistic worst-case in struck sheep and at the highest dose studied, equivalent to 5.8 mg spinosad per kg body weight, the maximum residue detected of 0.2 mg/kg in peri-renal fat was 20% of the Australian maximum residue limit. Muscle, liver and kidney residues of spinosad were also below the Australian maximum residue limits at all times.  相似文献

Nine barrows (23.8 +/- 0.9 kg) and 9 gilts (23.1 +/- 0.9 kg) were used to determine the disposition of radiocarbon after oral [14C]clenbuterol (4-amino-alpha-[t-butylaminomethyl]-3,5-dichlorobenzyl [7-(14)C]alcohol hydrochloride) administration and to determine total and parent residues in edible tissues. Three barrows and three gilts, housed in metabolism crates, were fed 1 ppm [14C]clenbuterol HCl for seven consecutive days in three separate trials; a single barrow and gilt from each trial was slaughtered after 0-, 3-, or 7-d preslaughter withdrawal periods. Urine and feces were collected during the dosing and the withdrawal period; edible and inedible tissues were collected at slaughter. Total recovery of radiocarbon was 94.2 +/- 6.5%. Total clenbuterol absorption was greater than 75% for barrows and 60% for gilts. Total radioactive residues in tissues were not different (P > 0.05) between barrows and gilts. Concentrations of parent clenbuterol in liver, kidney, skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, and lung did not differ between barrows and gilts (P > 0.05). Total radioactive and parent residues declined in tissues as withdrawal period increased. After the 0-d withdrawal period, total liver residues (286 ppb) were approximately equal to lung residues, twice those of the kidney, and about 15 times those of adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. After a 7-d withdrawal period, total radioactive residues in liver (15 ppb) were roughly three times greater than lung, kidney, and adipose tissue total residues and about 13 times those of skeletal muscle total residues. Parent clenbuterol represented 79, 63, 42, 67, and 100% of the total radioactive residue in adipose tissue, kidney, liver, lung, and skeletal muscle, respectively, in hogs slaughtered with a 0-d withdrawal period. With increasing withdrawal period, the percentage of total radioactive residue present as parent clenbuterol within edible tissues (including lung) decreased, so that after a 7-d withdrawal period, 7, 16, and 29% of the total residue was composed of parent clenbuterol in kidney, liver, and lung, respectively. After a 7-d withdrawal period, parent clenbuterol exceeded the European maximum residue limit (0.5 ppb) 4.6-fold in liver and 2.4-fold in lung. In muscle, clenbuterol was approximately 40 times the limit after a 0-d withdrawal period but had dropped below 0.5 ppb after a 3-d withdrawal period. Results from this study indicate that clenbuterol HCl is well absorbed in swine and that the use of clenbuterol in this species in an off-label manner is inconsistent with human food safety standards used in developed countries.  相似文献

After intramuscular administration to pigs (dosage 20-35 mg/kg) great differences were found among 10 injectable oxytetracycline (OTC) formulations with respect to irritation and persistence at the injection site and to the residue state of edible tissues. The OTC recovery percentages at the injection site 7-10 days after injection ranged from less than 0.001 to 0.15 per cent for three 10 per cent-formulations and from 0.12 to 20.5 per cent for seven 20 per cent-formulations. The OTC recovery percentage was obvious related to the extent of tissue irritation at the injection site, which was particularly evident for the 20 per cent-formulations. Serious doubt is expressed about advantages of so-called 'long-acting' formulations.  相似文献

Intramuscular injection sites were examined for macroscopical and microscopical changes and for residues of drugs six and 30 days after injection of chemotherapeutic preparations or vehicles in swine. The chemotherapeutic preparations contained sulphonamide and/or trimethoprim. All the chemotherapeutic preparations and the vehicles except physiological saline and sterile water caused macroscopical and microscopical changes, mainly appearing as areas of necrotic muscle tissue six days after the injection and as scar tissue 30 days after the injection. Residues of drugs were found at nearly all the injection sites six days after the injection, while 30 days after the injection only residues of sulphonamides were detectable in nearly half of the injection sites.  相似文献

Objective — This report describes our experience with a new technique for stabilization of mandibular fractures in cattle using a pinless external fixator.
Study Design — Mandibular fractures were stabilized with a pinless external fixator, which is a modification of a unilateral AO/ASIF (Association for the Study of Internal Fixation)-fixator in which pins are replaced with bone clamps.
Animals — Seven dairy cattle between 1 and 5 years of age.
Methods — Fracture stabilization was achieved by using the pinless external fixator. Postoperative management included intravenous administration of sodium chloride-glucose and antibiotics. A suspension of ruminal contents from a normal cow together with linseed and grass pellets was administered with a gastric tube.
Results — Three to 10 days after surgery six of seven cows masticated comfortably. The only failure was a yearling with a 10-day-old open infected fracture. This animal was slaughtered 9 days after surgery because of additional problems. In six cases there was enough callus formation 33 to 54 days after surgery to stabilize the fracture. The fixation devices were removed under heavy sedation. The major complication was bone sequestration at the fracture site, which required additional treatment.
Conclusion — The pinless fixator has proven satisfactory for external stabilization of unilateral horizontal ramus fractures of the mandible in cattle.
Clinical Relevance — The technique provides good stability without penetration of the medullary cavity and damage to the tooth roots. Other advantages of the technique include ease of application, minimal surgical trauma, and the short surgical time for application.  相似文献
