OBJECTIVE: The study was planned to observe the bioavailability anddisposition kinetics of amoxicillin in adult rabbits (irrespective of sex) under healthy anddehydrated conditions. Design: Comparative. Place and duration of study: The study wasconducted at the department of pharmacology, University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences,Lahore from April 2013 to October 2013. Methodology: Initially all rabbits were weighed andtheir packed cell volume (PCV) and other biochemical parameters were observed under normalconditions. Bioavailability and disposition kinetics of amoxicillin (10mg/kg body weight) werestudied in normal rabbits following oral and intravenous route of drug administration. After 10days washout period, these rabbits were made dehydrated by keeping the animals off waterbut not food. The animals with 10% decrease in body weight were declared dehydrated. Theirparameters were again measured. Treated rabbits were administered amoxicillin orally andintravenously (10mg/kg body weight). Samples were drawn at prescribed time. Amoxicillinwas assessed in plasma by using microbiological assay method. Plasma concentration wasanalyzed using non compartmental method. Results: The water deprived or dehydrated rabbitsshowed a significant increase in the packed cell volume, blood glucose and plasma globulins ascompared to the normal rabbits. However, there was a significant (p<0.05 & p<0.01) decreasein body weight, total proteins, albumins and albumin globulin ratio of the dehydrated rabbits.The peak plasma concentration, volume of distribution and rate constant of elimination waslower in the dehydrated rabbits as compared to the normal rabbits. The plasma concentrationof amoxicillin after intravenous administration in dehydrated rabbits had a significant (p<0.05& p<0.01) larger area under curve, area under 1st moment curve, a longer half life and a largermean residence time. Conclusions: The study in the dehydrated rabbits indicated the need ofmodification of dosage regimen.

Amitraz, a member of the formamidine pesticide family, commonly used for ectoparasite control, is applied as a dip or low-pressure hand spray to cattle and swine, and the neck collar on dogs. Data on amitraz were generated mainly on laboratory animals, hens, dogs, and baboons. The data on the toxicity and disposition of amitraz in animals and its residues in the milk are inadequate. Therefore, the present study was intended to analyze the disposition kinetics of amitraz and its pattern of elimination in the milk of lactating does after a single dermal application at a concentration of 0.25%. Blood at predetermined time intervals and milk twice daily were collected for eight days post application. The drug concentration was assayed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Amitraz was detected in whole blood as early as 0.5 h, which attained a peak concentration at 12 ± 5 h, followed by a steady decline; however, detection persisted until 168 h. Amitraz was present in the blood at its 50% Cmax even after 48 h, and was still detectable after 7 days. The disposition after a single dermal application was best described non-compartmentally. The mean terminal half-life (t1/2), mean residence time (MRT), and area under the curve (AUC0–t) were 111 ± 31 h, 168 ± 39 h, and 539 ± 211 µg/mL/h, respectively. The apparent volume of distribution (Vdarea) was 92 ± 36 mL/g with an observed clearance (Cl) of 0.57 ± 0.33 mL/kg/h. Thus, the drug was well absorbed, widely distributed and slowly eliminated from the animal body. Amitraz achieved milk concentration approximating 0.2 per cent of the total dose after a single exposure and the steady-state elimination of amitraz in milk above the recommended maximum residue limit (MRL) of 0.01 mg/kg can act as a source of public health concern when applied on lactating animals.

The pharmacokinetics of lornoxicam (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) at a dose of 0.4 mg/Kg body weight was evaluated after single intravenous (i.v.) and intramuscular (i.m.) bolus administrations in rabbits. An HPLC assay using pure lornoxicam base as a standard was used to measure its concentrations in plasma at prefixed time points up to 12 hours post administration. Following an i.v. bolus injection, the plasma concentration-time curves of lornoxicam were best represented by two-compartment open model. The drug was rapidly distributed and moderately eliminated with half-lives of distribution (t1/2α) and elimination (t1/2β) of 0.238 and 2.611 h, respectively. The volume of distribution was large with (Vdss) value of 1.499 L. The total body clearance (ClB) was 0.413 L/h. After i.m. bolus administration of the same dose, lornoxicam was moderately and completely absorbed in rabbits with an absorption half-life (t½ab) of 1.228 h with peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of 0.463 μg/mL attained at 1.512 h (Tmax) and systemic bioavailability of 99.79%. The elimination half-life following i.m. administration was 2.283 h. The extent of plasma protein binding percent was 98.9%. The study recommends the use of lornoxicam in rabbits because of its good pharmacokinetic profile indicated by good absorption, bioavailability and plasma concentrations.

The plasma disposition of cefoperazone was investigated after intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) administrations of 20 mg/kg as a single dose in six camels (Camelus dromedarius) in a crossover design. Blood plasma samples were analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). After IV administration, elimination half-life (t1/2β), volume of distribution at steady state (Vdss), total body clearance (Cltot) and mean residence time (MRT) of cefoperazone were 1.95 h, 0.38 L/kg, 0.17 L/h/kg and 2.16 h, respectively. After IM administration of cefoperazone, peak plasma concentration (Cmax) was 21.95 μg/mL and it was obtained at (tmax) 1.23 h. Absorption half-life (t1/2ab), elimination half-life and mean absorption time were 0.45 h, 2.84 h and 2.07 h, respectively. The bioavailability of cefoperazone was 89.42%. The lack of local reaction or any other adverse effects and the very good bioavailability following IM administration indicate that cefoperazone might be a promising alternative treatment for a variety of infectious diseases in camels.

SummaryPharmacokinetics and systemic effects of recombinant tissue type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) were determined during coronary thrombolysis in 12 acute myocardial infarction patients using a consecutive intravenous infusion regimen. Ten mg rt-PA were infused in 2 minutes resulting in a peak plasma concentration (mean ±SD) of 3310±950 ng/ml, followed by 50 mg in 1 h and 30 mg in 1.5 h yielding steady state plasma levels of. 2210±470 nglml and 930±200 ng/ml, respectively. All patients received intravenous heparin. Total clearance of rt-PA was 380±74 ml/min, t,½α was 3.6±0.9 min and t,½β was 16±5.4 min.After 90 min, in plasma samples containing anti-rt-PA-IgG to inhibit in vitro effects, fibrinogen was decreased to 54%, plasminogen to 52%, α2-antiplasmin to 25%, α2-macroglobulin to 90% and antithrombin III to 85% of initial values. Coagulation times were prolonged and fibrin D-dimer concentrations increased from 0.40 to 2.7 μg/ml. It is concluded that pharmacokinetics of rt-PA show low interpatient variability and that its short mean residence time in plasma allows precise control of therapy. Apart from its moderate effect on the haemostatic system, rt-PA appears to lyse a fibrin pool in addition to the coronary thrombus.

The kinetics of the triglyceride of dodecanedioic acid (TGDA) has been investigated in 30 male Wistar rats after a rapid intravenous bolus injection. TGDA and its product of hydrolysis, nonesterified dodecanedioic acid (NEDA), were measured in plasma samples taken at different times using an improved high-performance liquid chromatographic method. The 24-h urinary excretion of TGDA was 1.54 ± 0.37 μmol, corresponding to ∼0.67% of the administered amount. Several kinetics models were considered, including central and peripheral compartments for the triglyceride and the free forms and expressing transports between compartments with combinations of linear, carrier-limited, or time-varying mechanisms. The parameter estimates of the kinetics of TGDA and of NEDA were finally obtained using a three-compartment model in which the transfer of TGDA to NEDA was assumed to be linear, through a peripheral compartment, and the tissue uptake of NEDA was assumed to be carrier limited. TGDA had a large volume of distribution (∼0.5 l/kg body wt) with a fast disappearance rate from plasma (0.42 min−1), whereas NEDA had a very small volume of distribution (∼0.04 l/kg body wt) and a tissue uptake with maximal transport rate of 0.636 mM/min. In conclusion, this first study on the triglyceride form of dodecanedioic acid indicates that it is rapidly hydrolyzed and that both triglyceride and nonesterified forms are excreted in the urine to a very low extent. The tissue uptake rate of NEDA is consistent with the possibility of achieving substantial energy delivery, should it be added to parenteral nutrition formulations. Furthermore, the amount of sodium administered with the triglyceride form is one-half of that necessary with the free diacid.

Background A nondepolarizing muscle relaxant with an onset and offset profile similar to succinylcholine is desirable for pediatric anesthesia. The onset and offset of rapacuronium are rapid in children. In the current study, the authors determined its pharmacokinetic characteristics in children. In addition to administering rapacuronium by the usual intravenous route, the authors also gave rapacuronium intramuscularly to determine uptake characteristics and bioavailability. Methods Forty unpremedicated patients aged 2 months to 3 yr were anesthetized with halothane, 0.82-1.0% end-tidal concentration. When anesthetic conditions were stable, rapacuronium was injected either into a peripheral vein (2 mg/kg for infants, 3 mg/kg for children) or a deltoid muscle (2.8 mg/kg for infants, 4.8 mg/kg for children). Four venous plasma samples were obtained from each subject 2-240 min after rapacuronium administration. A mixed-effects population pharmacokinetic analysis was applied to these values to determine bioavailability, absorption rate constant, and time to peak plasma concentration with intramuscular administration. Results Plasma clearance was 4.77 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1) + 8.48 ml/min. Intramuscular bioavailability averaged 56%. Absorption from the intramuscular depot had two rate constants: 0.0491 min(-1) (72.4% of absorbed drug) and 0.0110 min(-1) (27.6% of the absorbed drug). Simulation indicated that plasma concentration peaks 4.0 and 5.0 min after intramuscular rapacuronium in infants and children, respectively, and that, at 30 min, less than 25% of the administered dose remains to be absorbed from the intramuscular depot. Conclusions In infants and children, rapacuronium's clearance and steady state distribution volume are less than in adults. After intramuscular administration, bioavailability is 56%, and plasma rapacuronium concentrations peak within 4 or 5 min.

The method of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is established to determine the content of antibacterial agent — ciprofloxacin (CF) in the degradation solution of ciprofloxacin-polyurethane (CFPU) and investigate the in vitro degradation kinetics by plotting and fitting the cumulative release curves to inspect the effects of different medium and different concentrations on drug release. The results showed that the HPLC method is accurate, reliable and simple. The drug-release of CFPU was bioresponsive and could be accorded with first order kinetics. It was observed that CF was released from CFPU by a combination of diffusion and erosion mechanism, mainly in the manner of diffusion in the absence of infection while erosion mechanism in the presence of infection.

The present work describes a simple, rapid, and reproducible reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the simultaneous estimation of clarithromycin (CLA) and paracetamol (PCM). C18 column (Kromasil ODS, 5 µm, 250 × 4.6 mm) and a mobile phase containing phosphate buffer (0.05 M) along with 1-octane sulphonic acid sodium salt monohydrate (0.005 M) adjusted to pH 3.2: acetonitrile (50 : 50 v/v) mixture was used for the separation and quantification. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min and the eluents were detected by UV detector at 205 nm. The retention times were found to be 2.21 and 3.73 mins, respectively. The developed method was validated according to ICH guidelines Q2 (R1) and found to be linear within the range of 75–175 µg/mL for both drugs. The developed method was applied successfully for assay of clarithromycin and paracetamol in their combined in-house developed dosage forms and in vitro dissolution studies.
