Background: The present study was designed to assess the comparative bio-equivalence of Micotil 300® and Cozina 300® in healthy broiler chickens after oral administration of both products in a dose of 15 mg tilmicosin base/kg body wt.Methods: Twenty four broiler chickens were divided equally into two groups (12 chickens for each group). The first group was designed to study the pharmacokinetics of Micotil 300®, while the 2nd group was designed to study the pharmacokinetics of Cozina 300®. Each broiler chicken in both groups was orally administered with 15 mg tilmicosin/kg body wt. Blood samples were obtained from the wing vein and collected immediately before and at 0.08, 0.16, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 hours after a single oral administration.Results: The disposition kinetics of Micotil 300® and Cozina 300® following oral administration of 15 mg tilmicosin/kg body wt revealed that the maximum blood concentration [Cmax] were 1.73 and 1.67 μg/ml and attained at [tmax] of 2.01 and 2.04 hours, respectively.Conclusions: Cozina 300® is bioequivalent to Micotil 300® since the ratios of Cmax, AUC0-24 andAUC0-∞ (T/R) were 0.96, 0.93 and 0.91 respectively. These are within the bio-equivalence acceptance range. Micotil 300® and Cozina 300® are therefore bioequivalent and interchangeable.

Background: The present study was designed to assess the comparative bioequivalence of Biocillin® and Atcomox87%® in healthy broiler chickens after oral administration of both products in a dose of 20 mg amoxicillin base/kg.b.wt.Methods: Twenty-four broiler chickens were divided into two groups. The first group was designed to study the pharmacokinetics of Biocillin®, while the 2nd group was designed to study the pharmacokinetics of Atcomox87%®. Each broiler chicken in both groups was injected intravenously with 20 mg amoxicillin pure standard/kg.b.wt. After 15 days both groups taken orally Biocillin® and Atcomox87%®, respectively. Blood samples were obtained from the wing vein and collected immediately before and at 0.08, 0.16, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after a single intravenous or oral administration.Results: Amoxicillin in both products obeyed a two compartments open model following I.V. injection. The disposition kinetics of Biocillin® and Atcomox87%® following oral administration of 20 mg amoxicillin base/kg.b.wt. revealed that the maximum blood concentration [Cmax] were 10.79 and 10.30 μg/ml and attained at [tmax] of 0.90 and 0.86 hours, respectively. The mean systemic bioavailability of amoxicillin in Biocillin® and Atcomox 87%® after oral administration in healthy chickens was 64.15 and 65.54%, respectively.Conclusions: Atcomox 87%® is bioequivalent to Biocillin® since the ratios of Cmax, AUC0-24 and AUC0-∞ (T/R) were 0.95, 0.91 and 0.90 respectively. These are within the bioequivalence acceptance range. Biocillin® and Atcomox87%® are therefore bioequivalent and interchangeable.

Background: Several studies assayed the pharmacokinetics of tilmicosin in broilers at a dosage of (25mg/kg.b.wt.). The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics and tissue residues of tilmicosin following single and repeated oral administrations (25mg/kg.b.wt.) once daily for 5 consecutive days in healthy and experimentally Mycoplasma gallisepticum and E. coli infected broilers.Methods: After oral administrations of tilmicosin (25 mg/kg.b.wt.) one ml blood was collected from the right wing vein and tissues samples for determination of tilmicosin concentrations and the disposition kinetics of it by the microbiological assay method using Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633) as a test organism.Results: In this study, the plasma concentration time graph was characteristic of a two-compartments open model. Following a single oral administration, tilmicosin was rapidly absorbed in both healthy and experimentally infected broilers with an absorption half-life of (t0.5(ab)) 0.45 and 0.52h, maximum serum concentration (Cmax) was 1.06 and 0.69μg/ml at (tmax) about 2.56 and 2.81h, (t0.5(el)) was 21.86 and 22.91h and (MRT) was 32.15 and 33.71h, respectively; indicating the slow elimination of tilmicosin in chickens. The in-vitro protein binding was 9.72±0.83%. Serum concentrations of tilmicosin following repeated oral administration once daily for five consecutive days, almost peaked 2h after each dose with lower significant values recorded in experimentally infected broiler chickens than in healthy ones.Conclusions: This study showed that tilmicosin was cleared rapidly from tissues. The highest residue values were recorded in the lung followed by liver and kidneys while the lowest values were recorded in spleen, fat and thigh muscles. Five days for withdrawal period of tilmicosin suggested in broilers.

The disposition kinetic of tilmicosin (25mg/kg) was studied following oral administration alone, pretreated with amprolium (240 ppm), pretreated with diclazuril (2.5 ppm) and pretreated with toltrazuril (25 ppm) in broiler chickens. The serum tilmicosin concentrations were determined by microbiological assay technique using Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633) as the test organism. Following oral administration of tilmicosin, the disposition curve was best described by two-compartment open model. The maximum serum concentration (Cmax) was 1.90 ± 0.11, 1.27 ± 0.13, 1.50 ± 0.14 and 1.41 ± 0.11µg/ml for tilmicosin alone and in the presence of amprolium, diclazuril and toltrazuril, respectively. The elimination half-life (T0.5 (el)) was significantly decreased (5.28 ± 0.30, 5.88 ± 0.33, 6.03 ± 0.25 h, respectively) in amprolium, diclazuril and toltrazuril pretreated broiler chicken compared to tilmicosin alone (7.30 ± 0.41 h). The outcomes illustrated a significant decrease in the interval between doses in amprolium, diclazuril and toltrazuril pretreated broiler chicken compared to tilmicosin alone. Amprolium diclazuril and toltrazuril, resulted in a significance decrease in AUC (12.02 ± 1.14, 15.50 ± 1.26 and 14.56 ± 1.46 µg.h.ml-1, respectively) compared to tilmicosin alone (21.98±1.83 µg.h.ml-1). It is concluded that the administration of amprolium, diclazuril and toltrazuril before tilmicosin would altered its pharmacokinetic profile in broiler chicken.

1 We have described and compared the use of two blood sampling techniques to measure the kinetics of fluazifop-butyl, a selective herbicide. Following intravenous administration of radiolabelled compound, blood samples were collected from female rats either by tail vein puncture or from chronically implanted catheters inserted in tethered rats. Urine samples were also collected from tethered animals. 2 Both techniques indicate that fluazifop-butyl is rapidly eliminated from blood into urine (t½3-4.5 h) and the overall blood concentration profiles were comparable between the two methods. However, by using cannulated rats, kinetic data were obtained from individual animals, providing. evidence of inter-animal variation and allowing compartmental and statistical analysis. 3 The tethered rat technique is relatively simple and reliable. Compared to tail vein bleeding, results obtained from cannulated animals are more informative, providing comprehensive data from a small number of rats. It is therefore the preferred method for our kinetic based research studies using compounds known to exhibit multicompartmental elimination kinetics.
