Abstract
In the study on Oreochromis niloticus, singular oral gavage of florfenicol (FFC) at 15 mg/kg biomass/day was conducted, mimicking approved aquaculture dosing. Samples of plasma, bile, muscle, intestine, skin, liver, kidney, gill, and brain tissues were collected at 0, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 96, and 128 hours (h) after oral gavage. LC-MS/MS analysis revealed FFC concentrations peaked at 12.15 μg/mL in plasma and 77.92 μg/mL in bile, both at 24 hours. Elimination half-lives were 28.17 h (plasma) and 26.88 h (bile). The residues of FFC ranked muscle>intestine>skin>liver>kidney>gill. In contrast, the residues of florfenicol amine (FFA) ranked kidney>skin>liver>muscle>gill>intestine>brain, particularly notable in tropical summer conditions. The minimum inhibitory concentration of FFC was elucidated against several bacterial pathogens revealing its superior efficacy. Results highlight bile's crucial role in FFC elimination. Further investigation, especially during winter when fish susceptibility to infections rises, is warranted.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology publishes the results of studies concerning toxic and pharmacological effects of (human and veterinary) drugs and of environmental contaminants in animals and man.
Areas of special interest are: molecular mechanisms of toxicity, biotransformation and toxicokinetics (including toxicokinetic modelling), molecular, biochemical and physiological mechanisms explaining differences in sensitivity between species and individuals, the characterisation of pathophysiological models and mechanisms involved in the development of effects and the identification of biological markers that can be used to study exposure and effects in man and animals.
In addition to full length papers, short communications, full-length reviews and mini-reviews, Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology will publish in depth assessments of special problem areas. The latter publications may exceed the length of a full length paper three to fourfold. A basic requirement is that the assessments are made under the auspices of international groups of leading experts in the fields concerned. The information examined may either consist of data that were already published, or of new data that were obtained within the framework of collaborative research programmes. Provision is also made for the acceptance of minireviews on (classes of) compounds, toxicities or mechanisms, debating recent advances in rapidly developing fields that fall within the scope of the journal.
