Neuromuscular and cardiovascular effects of atracurium, a nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent, were evaluated in 10 halothane-anesthetized adult horses. Hind limb digital extensor tension (hoof twitch) was measured with a strain gauge to quantitate the muscle relaxant effects of atracurium. Response of facial muscles was compared with hoof twitch. Five injections of atracurium were given. Initial mean (+/- SEM) dosage of 0.07 +/- 0.01 mg of atracurium/kg of body weight caused 98.6 +/- 0.8% reduction of the preinjection hoof twitch. Subsequent dosages of 0.04 +/- 0.003 mg/kg induced a degree of relaxation similar to that induced by the initial dose. Duration of paralysis from maximal effect to 10% recovery of twitch was 12.2 +/- 1.5 minutes for the first injection. This was significantly (P less than 0.05) different from subsequent paralysis periods, which lasted approximately 7 minutes. The 10% to 75% recovery time after all injections was similar-approximately 16 minutes. The facial muscles were less affected objectively by atracurium than was the hind limb. Atracurium did not cause cardiovascular changes. When the hoof twitch had recovered to 95% of its tension before atracurium administration, 0.5 mg of edrophonium/kg, was given to antagonize neuromuscular blockade. Within 5 minutes of edrophonium administration, twitch tension exceeded that measured before atracurium administrations. Within 2 minutes of edrophonium administration, blood pressure began to increase and continued to increase approximately 10 mm of Hg above the value measured before edrophonium administration. Heart rate was not affected by edrophonium. Other muscarinic side effects of edrophonium were not observed. Of the 10 horses, 9 had good, unremarkable recovery to standing position. One horse had a violent recovery period.  相似文献

Objective —The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of ketorolac tromethamine or placebo on the neuromuscular blockade induced by an infusion of atracurium in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs. Design —Randomized, controlled trial. Animals —Six healthy, adult mixed-breed dogs (five female, one male) weighing 24.8 ± 2.8 kg. Methods —Dogs were studied on two occasions with a minimum of 7 days between studies. Dogs were induced with 5% isoflurane in oxygen and maintained with 1.6 ± minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) end-tidal isoflurane. Neuromuscular blockade was assessed using the train of-four response. Once 50% depression of the first twitch (T1) was achieved, the atracurium infusion rate was held constant for 30 minutes. Then ketorolac, 0.5 mg/kg, or the same volume of placebo (0.9% sodium chloride solution) was administered intravenously and the atracurium infusion maintained for an additional 60 minutes. Before and at 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, and 60 minutes after ketorolac or placebo, the percent depression of T1 and the fourth twitch to the first twitch (T4/T1) ratio were recorded. The atracurium infusion was discontinued and the time for T1 to recover from 50% to 75% of its original value was recorded. At 75% T1, edrophonium, 0.5 mg/kg intravenously, was administered to antagonize the residual blockade. Results —There was no significant difference in T1%, T4/T1 ratio, or recovery time after ketorolac administration compared with placebo. Conclusions —Ketorolac, 0.5 mg/kg intravenously, has no significant effect on either atracuriuminduced neuromuscular blockade or recovery time for T1 in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs. Clinical Relevance —The concurrent use of atracurium should not be a contraindication for the administration of ketorolac for intraoperative or postoperative analgesia.  相似文献

Atracurium besylate, a recently developed, intermediate-duration acting, neuromuscular-blocking agent, was given to 15 halothane-anesthetized ponies to produce surgical relaxation (95% to 99% reduction of hoof twitch). All 15 ponies were given 3 injections; 8 of the 15 ponies were given 2 additional injections. Initial dosage of 0.11 +/- 0.01 mg/kg (mean +/- SD) and all subsequent injections of 0.052 mg/kg produced desired relaxation. Paralysis phase (maximum twitch reduction to 10% twitch recovery) lasted 24 +/- 5 minutes for the initial injection. Paralysis from subsequent injections lasted for a slightly shorter time. Recovery phase (10% to 75% twitch recovery) was similar for all injections (initial and repeated) and lasted approximately 11 minutes. Cardiovascular side effects were not seen. Reversal of effects of atracurium with administration of 0.5 mg of edrophonium/kg was achieved when the evoked digital extensor tension (twitch height) had returned to 95% of base line after the last atracurium injection. Edrophonium caused systolic blood pressure to increase 121% +/- 7% of base-line pressure, which was 133 +/- 18 mm of Hg. Heart rate changed to 93% +/- 9% of base line after edrophonium was given, which was 49 +/- 7 beat/min, but this change did not occur until after the blood pressure increased. Recovery to standing was smooth and strong. Five ponies stood on their first attempt to rise, 5 on the 2nd attempt, 2 on the 3rd, and 1 on the 4th. Seven ponies stood within 30 minutes after transportation to the recovery stall, 7 within an hour.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

To determine whether cholinesterase inhibition by an organophosphate would influence atracurium's neuromuscular blockade, six horses were anesthetized and paralyzed with atracurium (total of five injections per horse) on experimental Day 1, then were given trichlorfon (64 mg/kg per os) 6 days later. On Day 7, horses were anesthetized and paralyzed in the same manner as on experimental Day 1. Blood was taken to measure serum cholinesterase activity prior to anesthesia on Days 1 and 7. No significant difference was noted in atracurium's neuromuscular blocking activity between the 2 experimental days (P less than 0.05), despite Day 7 cholinesterase activity that was 16% of pre-trichlorfon values. For atracurium Injections 1 and 2-5, 85 and 43 micrograms/kg of atracurium, respectively, were required to produce a 95-99% reduction in hoof twitch. The time from injection to maximum twitch reduction was approximately 9 min after Injection 1 and 5 min after subsequent injections. Time from injection to maximum twitch reduction was significantly longer for Injection 1 than Injections 2-5 on both experimental days. The time from maximum twitch reduction until 10% recovery was approximately 8 min, with no significant difference between experimental days. The time for twitch recovery from 10 to 75% was approximately 17 min for all injections. Antagonism of atracurium with edrophonium caused the twitch height to return to pre-atracurium strength in approximately 7 min. Edrophonium caused a significant increase in arterial blood pressure. Heart rate change was variable after edrophonium.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To quantify the neuromuscular blockade (NMB) produced by atracurium in either sevoflurane or propofol-anaesthetized dogs. ANIMALS: Twelve healthy, female adult mixed-breed dogs weighing 13 +/- 3 kg (range 10-22 kg). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Three doses of atracurium (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 mg kg(-1)) were tested at 1-week intervals. Anaesthesia was induced with inhaled sevoflurane or intravenous propofol and maintained with end-tidal sevoflurane concentrations of 1.95% (1.25 x MAC) or propofol 0.6 mg kg(-1) minute(-1) respectively. Acceleromyography and train-of-four stimulation of the fibular nerve were used for the assessment of NMB. The percentage depression of the first twitch (T1) and the fourth to the first twitch ratio (T4/T1), the maximum degree of neuromuscular block achieved and surgical muscle relaxation were recorded. Before and during neuro muscular blockade (at 10 minute intervals) body temperature, ECG, arterial blood pressure, inspired and expired CO2 concentrations and SpO2 were recorded. RESULTS: Atracurium produced a dose-dependent duration of NMB in both propofol and sevoflurane-anaesthetized dogs. Duration of block was longer in dogs anaesthetized with sevoflurane. All studied doses of atracurium caused twitch depression > or =95% with little or no cardiovascular changes. CONCLUSIONS: Sevoflurane produces a clinically relevant potentiation of atracurium-induced NMB in dogs compared with propofol. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Significant differences in the potentiation of NMB drugs are encountered with commonly used anaesthetics in the dog.  相似文献

Neuromuscular blocking agents should be included as part of a balanced anaesthetic protocol to improve anaesthetic management, although doses are not always established for each species. Cis‐atracurium is a benzylisoquinolinium neuromuscular blocking agent with an intermediate duration of action devoid of significant adverse effects previously used in pigs with a wide dosage range. Cis‐atracurium was administered at 1 mg/kg bolus to sixteen pigs to establish its time profile and effects. The pigs were premedicated intramuscularly with 4 mg/kg azaperone, 8 mg/kg ketamine and 0.2 mg/kg morphine IM and maintained with isoflurane in oxygen. After cis‐atracurium administration, neuromuscular monitoring via acceleromyography was started until the recovery of the 90% of the train of four ratio. Complete decrease in the train of four ratio was accomplished in eleven pigs. Onset of action was 70 s, with a recovery of the fourth twitch at 26 min and a recovery of a train of four ratio greater than 90% in 60 min. In conclusion, 1 mg/kg intravenous cis‐atracurium in the pig allowed for a rapid onset of action and a complete recovery after 60 min although high variability in the time profile is seen.  相似文献

Cumulative vs single-bolus administration of pancuronium was studied in halothane-anesthetized ponies. Dosage levels were determined by giving small increments (0.01 to 0.04 mg/kg of body weight) until the desired relaxation occurred (0.125 +/- 0.038 mg/kg for 90% to 99% reduction of prerelaxant twitch height), then an additional 0.037 +/- 0.024 mg/kg for obliteration of twitch response. The dosage level defined by cumulative administration was then administered as a single bolus 2 more times, once on each of 2 days. Dosage requirements for the 2 methods correlated well. The difference in duration of paralysis caused by doses of different magnitude was compared, 1 dose to produce discernible surgical relaxation (90% to 99% reduction of twitch height) and a larger dose that obliterated discernible twitch height. The larger dose produced a significantly (P less than 0.05) longer duration of paralysis until a 10% recovery of prerelaxant twitch height was attained. The recovery phase, defined as the duration from 10% to 75% recovery of prerelaxant twitch tension, was not significantly different in ponies given either dose. Seemingly, after relaxant recovery began, the larger dose did not slow recovery. Duration of maximum paralysis until 10% recovery took 41 +/- 16 minutes for the larger dose and 10 +/- 5 minutes for the smaller dose. The recovery phase (10% to 75%) took 12 +/- 3.2 minutes and 11 +/- 4 minutes for the large and smaller doses, respectively.  相似文献

The non-depolarizing muscle relaxant atracurium was administered to 25 dogs undergoing a variety of surgical procedures under general anaesthesia. An initial dose of 0–5 mg/kg was administered and when the block began to wear off an infusion was begun. A dose of 0–5 mg/kg/hr was administered by a simple infusion technique. Reversal of the neuromuscular block was carried out with either neostigmine or edrophonium preceded by atropine.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine effects of atracurium on intraocular pressure (IOP), eye position, and arterial blood pressure in eucapnic and hypocapnic dogs anesthetized with isoflurane. ANIMALS: 16 dogs. PROCEDURE: Ventilation during anesthesia was controlled to maintain Paco2 at 38 to 44 mm Hg in group- I dogs (n = 8) and 26 to 32 mm Hg in group-II dogs (8). Baseline measurements for IOP, systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial blood pressure, central venous pressure (CVP), and heart rate (HR) were recorded. Responses to peroneal nerve stimulation were monitored by use of a force-displacement transducer. Atracurium (0.2 mg/kg) was administered i.v. and measurements were repeated at 1, 2, 3, and 5 minutes and at 5-minute intervals thereafter for 60 minutes. RESULTS: Atracurium did not affect IOP, HR, or CVP Group II had higher CVP than group I, but IOP was not different. There was no immediate effect of atracurium on arterial blood pressure. Arterial blood pressure increased gradually over time in both groups. Thirty seconds after administration of atracurium, the eye rotated from a ventromedial position to a central position and remained centrally positioned until 100% recovery of a train-of-four twitch response. The time to 100% recovery was 53.1 +/- 5.3 minutes for group I and 46.3 +/- 9.2 minutes for group II. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Atracurium did not affect IOP or arterial blood pressure in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs. Hyperventilation did not affect IOP or the duration of effect of atracurium.  相似文献

Objective—To determine the neuromuscular effects of doxacurium chloride and to construct a dose-response curve for the drug in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs. Design—Randomized, controlled trial. Animals—Six healthy, adult, mixed-breed dogs (five female, one male) weighing 24.8 ° 2.8 kg. Methods—Anesthesia was induced with isoflurane in oxygen and maintained with 1.9% to 2.3% end-tidal isoflurane concentration. Paco2 was maintained between 35 and 45 mm Hg with mechanical ventilation. Mechanomyography was used to quantitate the evoked twitch response of the paw after supramaximal train-of-four stimulation of the superficial peroneal nerve. After baseline values were recorded, the dogs received one of three doses of doxacurium (2.0, 3.5, 4.5 μg/kg of body weight) or a saline placebo intravenously in random order. All dogs received all treatments with at least 7 days between studies. After drug administration, the degree of maximal first twitch depression compared with baseline (T,%) was recorded. Dose-response relations of doxacurium were plotted in log dose-probit format and analyzed by linear regression to determine effective dose (ED50 and ED90) values for doxacurium. Results—The median log dose-probit response curve showed good data correlation (r= .999) with estimates of the ED50 (2.1 μg/kg) and ED90 (3.5 μg/kg) for doxacurium in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs. Mean ± SD values for T1% (first twitch tension compared with baseline) at maximal depression after drug administration, onset (time from drug administration to maximal depression of T1%), duration (time from maximal depression of T1% to 25% recovery of T1%), and recovery (time from 25% to 75% recovery of T1%) times were 92%± 4%, 40 ± 5 minutes, 108 ± 31 minutes, and 42 ± 11 minutes for dogs treated with 3.5 μg/kg of doxacurium and 94%± 7%, 41 ± 8 minutes, 111 ± 33 minutes, and 37 ± 10 minutes for dogs treated with 4.5 μg/kg of doxacurium. Conclusion and Clinical Relevance—We conclude that doxacurium is a long-acting neuromuscular blocking agent with a slow onset of action. Doxacurium can be used to provide muscle relaxation for long surgical procedures in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs. Interpatient variability, particularly of duration of drug action, may exist in the neuromuscular response to the administration of doxacurium in dogs.  相似文献

Atracurium (0.4 mg/ml in isotonic NaCl solution) was administered by IV infusion to 7 healthy adult horses for 2 hours. Over the 2-hour period, a 95 to 99% reduction of train-of-four hoof-twitch response was maintained by 0.17 +/- 0.01 mg of atracurium/kg of body weight/h, for a total of 161 +/- 6 mg of atracurium (mean +/- SEM) for horses 1 to 4, 6, and 7. Horse 5, a mare in estrus, required 0.49 mg of atracurium/kg/h to maintain comparable relaxation. Hoof-twitch recovery time from 10 to 75% of baseline strength was 19.8 +/- 2.5 minutes for all horses. The 10 to 75% recovery time for horse 5 was 18 minutes. Recovery time from discontinuation of halothane until standing was 86 +/- 14 minutes (range, 55 to 165 minutes). Horse 5 had a 165-minute recovery. Regarding recovery from anesthesia, 3 recoveries were rated as excellent, 1 recovery good, and 2 recoveries as fair. Horse 5 laid quietly until she stood with 1 strong, smooth effort.  相似文献

The cardiovascular effects of doxacurium were studied in 6 isoflurane-anaesthetised dogs. Each dog was anaesthetised twice, receiving doxacurium (0.008 mg/kg bwt) or placebo iv. Dogs were ventilated to normocapnia. Heart rate, cardiac index, systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial blood pressures, stroke volume, pulmonary vascular resistance, pulmonary artery wedge pressure, systemic vascular resistance, and pulmonary arterial pressure were determined. Neuromuscular blockade was assessed using the train-of-four technique. After recording baseline values, dogs randomly received either doxacurium or placebo iv, and data were recorded at 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105 and 120 min. At 120 min, dogs treated with doxacurium received edrophonìum (0.5 mg/kg bwt iv) to antagonise neuromuscular blockade; dogs treated with placebos received saline iv. No statistically significant differences were detected after doxacurium compared to placebo. In both the doxacurium and placebo groups, significant increases in systolic arterial blood pressure, cardiac index, and stroke volume and a significant decrease in systemic vascular resistance occurred with time. Doxacurium depressed twitch tension 100% in all dogs (time to maximal twitch depression, 11 ± 7 min). First twitch tension was less than 10% of baseline values in all dogs at the time (120 min) of edrophonium administration. Additional edrophonium (1.0 ± 0.4 mg/kg iv) was required to obtain a fourth twitch to first twitch ratio of greater than 0.70. In conclusion, doxacurium is a long-acting neuromuscular blocking agent with no significant cardiovascular effects in isoflurane-anesthetised dogs. In dogs, doxacurium is indicated primarily for long surgical procedures requiring neuromuscular blockade and cardiovascular stability.  相似文献

Neuromuscular blocking agents (muscle relaxants) are useful and common adjuncts to general anesthesia for human beings, but have not been used extensively during anesthesia of large animal species. Over a 3-year period, atracurium or pancuronium were used as adjuncts to general anesthesia for 89 anesthetic procedures in 88 equids (of 18 breeds and age ranging in age from 5 weeks to 25 years) at the teaching hospital. Forty-one of the anesthetic procedures were for abdominal surgery, and orthopedic (n = 19), ophthalmologic (n = 17), thoracotomy (n = 1), and soft tissue (n = 14) procedures composed the rest. Most equids were given atracurium because it was less expensive than pancuronium. Initial dosage of either relaxant ranged from 0.12 to 0.2 mg/kg of body weight IV, and repeat doses ranged from 10 to 30 mg. Relaxants were used for as long as 205 minutes. Muscles of the face or hind limb digital extensor muscles were used to monitor relaxation. Muscles of the hind limb were more sensitive to the effects of relaxants than were muscles of the face. At the end of a surgical procedure, just prior to being taken to the recovery stall, a relaxant antagonist, edrophonium (0.5 to 1 mg/kg), was administered IV to each equid. Edrophonium caused blood pressure to increase in most of the equids. Heart rate change was variable, with approximately half the equids having no change or increased heart rate and the remainder having decreased heart rate. Recovery to standing after anesthesia was rated excellent or good for 72 equids, fair for 11, and poor for 2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Coniine, an alkaloid of Conium maculatum (poison hemlock), was administered by gavage to immature chickens, quails, and turkeys at 0, 25, 50, and 100 mg/kg body weight. At 25 mg coniine/kg body weight, clinical signs were observed only in quails (2/10) and consisted of excitement, depression, hypermetria, seizures, opisthotonos, and flaccid paralysis. Chickens (9/10) and quails (8/10) dosed at 50 mg/kg body weight were affected, and several birds of each species died (2/10 and 5/10, respectively). Turkeys (7/10) were affected only when dosed at 100 mg/kg body weight, and quails (6/10), turkeys (4/10), and chickens (10/10) died at this dose. There were no gross or microscopic lesions. Coniine was detected in skeletal muscle and liver of birds dying after ingestion and was present in some survivors 7 days post-treatment.  相似文献

The antagonistic effect of yohimbine HCl (0.25 mg/kg IV), and alpha 2-adrenergic antagonist, on xylazine (0.05 mg/kg IV)-induced depression of central nervous and cardiovascular activity and rumen motility was studied in post-weaning calves. Yohimbine, administered 3 min post-xylazine, significantly decreased the duration of rumen amotility (38.3 +/- 4.2 min versus 14.0 +/- 2.2 min). Sedation, however, as monitored by the duration of fetlock knuckling in calves suspended in a body sling, was not shortened by yohimbine treatment. Yohimbine alone produced a significant tachycardia and led to a reduction of the duration of xylazine-induced bradycardia. Our data indicate that yohimbine produces a significant reversal of xylazine-induced rumen hypomotility at dosage levels that are without effect on sedation induced by this drug.  相似文献

Pharmacodynamic properties of succinylcholine in greyhounds   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Succinylcholine is a depolarizing neuromuscular blocking drug, which is rapidly hydrolyzed by the enzyme pseudocholinesterase. In Greyhounds, the metabolism of certain drugs is atypical relative to other breeds, and it has been suggested that Greyhounds may be an atypical population, with lower pseudocholinesterase activity, slower hydrolysis of the drug succinylcholine, and a prolonged duration of action of the drug, compared with a mixed-breed control population. Six healthy adult Greyhounds and 6 healthy adult mixed-breed dogs were studied. Blood was drawn from each dog and analyzed for serum cholinesterase activity, and a biochemical profile was done to verify normal liver function. The dogs were anesthetized with methohexital (10 mg/kg) and isoflurane (1.25 minimal alveolar concentration) in 100% oxygen. Ventilation was controlled, fluids were administered IV (lactated Ringer solution, 10 ml/kg/h), and blood gases, blood pressure, and heart rate were monitored. The right hind limb was immobilized and a force transducer was used to monitor twitch strength of the interosseous muscle with supramaximal stimulation of the tibial nerve. Succinylcholine was administered to each dog 3 times at a dosage of 0.3 mg/kg. After drug administration, the time to 50% recovery of twitch strength (single twitch, 1/s), and 50% recovery of train-of-4 was determined. Subsequent doses were administered after complete recovery. The time to 50% recovery after succinylcholine administration in Greyhounds (38 minutes, dose 1, single twitch) was not significantly different than the time to 50% recovery in mixed-breed dogs (29 minutes, dose 1, single twitch), using either monitoring technique. Pseudocholinesterase activity was also not significantly different between the Greyhounds (1,685 mU/ml) and the mixed-breed dogs (1,588 mU/ml).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Pancuronium bromide was administered to calves to define the dosage level necessary to produce surgical relaxation (90% to 99% reduction of base-line evoked, hindlimb digital-extensor muscle twitch tension). Initial dosage level requirement was 43 +/- 9 micrograms/kg of body weight. Calves with this degree of relaxation required 26 +/- 14 minutes to achieve 50% recovery and 43 +/- 19 minutes to achieve complete return of base-line muscle twitch. Calves given a repeat injection of pancuronium at base-line muscle twitch required 27 +/- 9 micrograms/kg to achieve relaxation similar to that of the 1st dose. The 2nd dose did not last as long as the 1st, with complete recovery occurring in 37 +/- 12 minutes. Maximum evoked tension occurred at 200- to 400-g resting tension on the hoof. There was an absence of heart rate or blood pressure changes after injection of relaxant and a variable and inconsistent fade response to train-of-four and tetanic stimulus of the facial muscles. Acid-base values were alkalemic (pHa 7.5 +/- 0.08) when ventilation was controlled at eucapnia (PaCO2, 25 to 45 mm of Hg).  相似文献

Background: Iohexol has been successfully used as a marker to assess intestinal permeability in humans and various other mammals. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of oral iohexol as an intestinal permeability marker in four anatomically and nutritionally diverse bird species. Methods: Three dosages (1 ml/kg, 2 ml/kg, 4 ml/kg) of iohexol (755 mg/ml) were administered orally to each six clinically healthy pigeons and chickens at two-week intervals. Iohexol plasma concentration was determined 45, 90 and 180 minutes after administration. A comparative study was performed by administering iohexol twice to each six clinically healthy cockatiels and falcons, and determining iohexol plasma concentration at 45 or 90 minutes after administration. Results: The recommended iohexol dosage for permeability testing in birds was determined to be 1 ml/kg. Median plasma iohexol concentrations were 27.77 µg/ml in pigeons, 12.97 µg/ml in chickens, 14.24 µg/ml in cockatiels, and 47.81 µg/ml in falcons, 45 minutes after this dosage was administered. At 90 minutes after administration, median plasma iohexol concentrations were 40.68 µg/ml in pigeons, 21.59 µg/ml in chickens, 32.03 µg/ml in cockatiels, and 55.96 µg/ml in falcons. Conclusions and clinical relevance: Oral iohexol was a safe and feasible marker for intestinal permeability assessment in birds. Further investigations are warranted to establish species-specific reference intervals in larger numbers of healthy birds, and to examine the use of iohexol as a permeability marker in birds with disorders associated with altered intestinal permeability.  相似文献

1. Disposition kinetics of doxycycline (doxy) was studied in healthy chickens and chickens experimentally intoxicated with aflatoxin B1 by intravenous, oral or intramuscular (i.m.) injection, in a single dose of 15 mg/kg body weight. In addition, the tissue distribution and residual pattern of the drug were determined in healthy and intoxicated chickens. 2. The maximum serum concentrations of doxy were reached 1.97 and 2.37 h after oral, and 1.57 and 2.92 h after i.m. dosage in healthy and aflatoxic birds, respectively. 3. The volumes of distribution and total body clearances were higher in aflatoxic birds (1.75 l/kg and 14.61 ml/kg/min) than in healthy chickens (0.93 l/kg and 4.6 ml/kg/min). Data relating to intravenous injection were analysed using a two-compartment open model curve fit. 4. Lower values of systemic bioavailability were observed in intoxicated birds (30.9 and 33.9%) than healthy ones (43.7 and 57.3%) after oral and i.m. administration, respectively. 5. The highest concentration of doxy residues were present in liver, kidney and serum followed by heart and muscles. Doxy residue concentrations in edible tissues was below the EEC limit 6 d after cessation of oral or i.m. medication with 15 mg/kg body weight twice daily for 5 successive days.  相似文献
