Bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of cefotaxime in Muscovy ducks
نویسنده
چکیده
The pharmacokinetic profile of cefotaxime following a single intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) injection was studied in Muscovy ducks. Cefotaxime was given at a dose rate of 25 mg/kg b.wt. for both routes. After IV injection, the plasma levels of cefotaxime estimated at 0.08 h was 70.87 μg/ml, which declined gradually and cefotaxime was detected up to 10 h (0.59 μg/ml). The mean values of CL, Vdss and t1/2β of cefotaxime in muscovy ducks were 0.22 l/kg/h, 0.51 l/kg and 1.81 h, respectively. After IM injection, maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) was (14.72 μg/ml), time of maximal plasma concentration (tmax) was (2.3 h) and elimination half-life (t1/2el) was (1.77 h). Bioavailability following IM injection was 79.61%, and in vitro protein binding percent was 31.48%. A recommended IM dosage for cefotaxime in muscovy ducks would be 30 mg/kg b.wt., repeated at 12 h intervals will provide a therapeutic plasma concentrations exceeding the MIC≤0.5 μg/ml for most susceptible pathogens in ducks.

Comparative Pharmacokinetics of Levofloxacin in Healthy and Renal Damaged Muscovy Ducks following Intravenous and Oral Administration
The pharmacokinetics aspects of levofloxacin were studied in healthy and experimentally renal damaged Muscovy ducks after single intravenous (IV) and oral (PO) dose of 10 mg kg(-1) bwt. Following IV administration, elimination half-life (t 1/2( β )) and mean residence time (MRT) were longer in renal damaged ducks than in healthy ones. Total clearance (Cltot) in renal damaged ducks (0.20 L kg(-1...

BACKGROUND This study focused on utilizing pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) modeling to optimize therapeutic dosage regimens of sarafloxacin against avian pathogenic Escherichia. coli O78 strain in Muscovy ducks. The ex vivo PK/PD study of sarafloxacin was conducted in Muscovy ducks after intravenous (i.v.) and oral (p.o.) administrations at a single dose of 10 mg/kg bodyweight (BW). T...

Experimental infection of Muscovy ducks with V4 strain of Newcastle disease virus was undertaken to determine the response of the ducks to the virus and the possibility of virus transmission to ducks and chickens in village like conditions. Twelve ducks were randomly and equally divided into three groups of control, inoculated and in-contact. Additionally, the chickens were placed into two grou...

Five hundred ten duck eggs of Pekin and each of Muscovy duck eggs were incubated to determine fertility and hatchability. The eggs were cleaned and stored at 18-21oC for 6 days prior to setting in the incubator. The eggs were incubated in a forced-draft electric incubator and the hatching performances were recorded. Ninety Pekin and ninety Muscovy day-old ducklings were randomly selected from t...
