Abstract
Enrofloxacin (ENR) is used to prevent and treat fish diseases widely. However, its pollution is increasing public concern on human health and aquatic ecosystem safety. This review aims to find its pollution mechanisms and control way. It is found: (1) The excessive ENR administration is the main source, the sediment ENR escaping from photolysis is the secondary ENR pollution source; (2) The ENR-rich fishes were benthic lipid-rich fishes which can simultaneously absorb administration ENR and sediment ENR, the ENR bioaccumulation is positively related to the fish habitats ENR level and fish lipids content; (3) The ENR t1/2 varies with fish age, body weight, feedstuff lipids and crude fiber level, temperature, salinity, administration mode and dose; Consequently, the first control way is to conduct the minimum inhibitory concentration ENR, combining herbal medicines with antibacterial and detoxification functions. The second way is to develop the enrichment and removal techniques for sediment ENR.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate the plasma and muscle pharmacokinetic of enrofloxacin (ENR) and its active metabolite ciprofloxacin (CIP) in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) following single intravascular (IV), intraperitoneal (IP), or oral (PO) administration at 30 ± 1 °C. In this study, 234 healthy Nile tilapia (120-150 g) were used. The fish received a single IV, IP, or PO treatment of ENR at a dose of 10 mg/kg. The plasma and muscle tissue concentrations of ENR and CIP were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection and were evaluated using non-compartmental analysis. The elimination half-life, volume of distribution at steady state, and total body clearance of ENR were 21.7 h, 2.69 L/kg, and 0.09 L/h/kg, respectively. The peak plasma concentrations of ENR after IP or PO administration were 6.11 and 4.21 µg/mL at 0.25 and 2 h, respectively. The bioavailability of ENR for IP or PO routes was 78% and 86%, respectively. AUC(0-120)muscle/AUC(0-120)plasma ratios following the IV, IP, or PO administrations were 1.43, 1.49, and 1.07, respectively. CIP was detected after all routes, but the AUC0-last ratios of CIP to ENR were <1.0% for plasma and muscle. ENR was detected up to 120 h following the IV, IP, or PO administrations. The long residence time of ENR after single IV, IP, or PO administration ensured the plasma concentration was ≥1 × MIC for bacteria with threshold MIC values of 0.92, 0.72, and 0.80 μg/mL over the whole 120 h observed. However, further studies are necessary to determine the optimum pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics data of ENR for the treatment of infections caused by susceptible bacteria in tilapia.

Abstract
Flumequine (FLUM), a quinolone-derived antibiotic is one of the most prescribed drugs in aquaculture farms. However, its intensive use becomes worrisome because of its environmental risks and the emergence of FLUM-resistant bacteria. To overcome these problems we propose in this study the encapsulation and the delivery of FLUM by titanate nanotubes (TiNTs). Optimal FLUM loading was reached by suspending the dehydrated powder nanomaterials (FLUM : TiNTs ratio = 1 : 5) in ethanol. The drug entrapment efficiency was calculated to be 80% approximately with a sustained release in PBS at 37 °C up to 5 days. Then FLUM@TiNTs was evaluated for both its in vitro drug release and antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli (E. coli). Spectacularly high antibacterial activity compared to those of free FLUM antibiotic was obtained confirming the efficiency of TiNTs to protect FLUM from rapid degradation and transformation within bacteria improving thereby its antibacterial effect. Indeed FLUM@TiNTs was efficient to decrease gradually the bacterial viability to reach ≈5% after 5 days versus ≈75% with free FLUM. Finally, the ex vivo permeation experiments on sea bass (Dicentrachus labrax) intestine shows that TiNTs act to increase the intestinal permeation of FLUM during the experiment. Indeed the encapsulated FLUM flux increased 12 fold (1.46 μg cm2 h−1) compared to the free antibiotic (0.18 μg cm2 h−1). Thanks to its physical properties (diameter 10 nm, tubular shape…) and its high stability in the simulated intestinal medium, TiNTs are easy internalized by enterocytes, thus involving an endocytosis mechanism, and then improve intestinal permeation of FLUM. Taken together, FLUM@TiNTs hold potential as an effective approach for enhancing the antimicrobial activity of FLUM and pave the way not only for future pharmacokinetic studies in the treatment and targeting of fish infections but also for instating of novel strategies that overcome the challenges associated with the abusive use of antibiotics in fish farming. Flumequine (FLUM), a quinolone-derived antibiotic is one of the most prescribed drugs in aquaculture farms.![]()

Pharmacokinetics and Tissue Distribution of Enrofloxacin Following Single Oral Administration in Yellow River Carp (Cyprinus carpio haematoperus). Front Vet Sci 2022; 9:822032.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of enrofloxacin were determined in Yellow River carp (Cyprinus carpio haematopterus) reared at 20°C after single oral administration of enrofloxacin at 10 mg·kg−1 body weight (BW). Plasma, bile, and different tissue samples, including liver, kidney, gill, gut, and skin-muscle, were collected at predetermined times points. An HPLC method was developed to simultaneously determine the concentrations of enrofloxacin and its metabolite, ciprofloxacin. However, ciprofloxacin was only detectable in some liver samples with trace levels. Then the average enrofloxacin concentrations vs. time data were subjected to a non-compartmental analysis using WinNonLin 5.2 software. Multiple peaking profiles were observed in all enrofloxacin concentration-time curves. The peak concentration (Cmax) values were observed as 0.79, 1.01, 2.09, 2.85, 4.34, 10.78, and 13.07 μg·ml−1 (or g−1) in plasma, skin-muscle, gill, kidney, liver, bile, and gut, respectively, and the corresponding time to reach peak concentration (Tmax) was 8, 8, 1, 8, 1, 72, and 4 h, respectively. The values of elimination half-life (T1/2λZ) of enrofloxacin in different tissues was in the following order: gill (291.13 h) > liver (222.29 h) > kidney (157.22 h) > plasma (129.44 h) > gut (91.47 h) > skin-muscle (87.77 h) > bile (86.22 h). The present results showed that enrofloxacin had a wide distribution in different tissues, however slow absorption and elimination in Yellow River carp. Additionally, enrofloxacin exhibited large distribution in bile, indicating that bile excretion might be the primary elimination route of enrofloxacin in Yellow River carp. A withdrawal period was calculated as 379.2 °C-day for single oral dosing of enrofloxacin at 10 mg/kg BW. Based on the calculated PK/PD indices of AUC/MIC or Cmax/MIC, the current enrofloxacin dosing regimen might have a positive therapeutic effect on the infection of Flavobacterium columnare, Aeromonas sobria, or Aeromonas hydrophila. However, the depletion study following multiple oral doses should be carried out in Yellow River carp reared at lower temperatures, and the withdrawal period should also be further calculated.

Abstract
The specific concentrations of flumequine and oxolinic acid in non-target feed for food-producing animals, below which there would not be an effect on the emergence of, and/or selection for, resistance in bacteria relevant for human and animal health, as well as the specific antimicrobial concentrations in feed which have an effect in terms of growth promotion/increased yield were assessed by EFSA in collaboration with EMA. Details of the methodology used for this assessment, associated data gaps and uncertainties, are presented in a separate document. To address antimicrobial resistance, the Feed Antimicrobial Resistance Selection Concentration (FARSC) model developed specifically for the assessment was applied. However, due to the lack of data on the parameters required to calculate the FARSC, it was not possible to conclude the assessment until further experimental data are available. To address growth promotion, data from scientific publications obtained from an extensive literature review were used. No suitable data for the assessment were available. It was recommended to carry out studies to generate the data that are required to fill the gaps which prevented the calculation of the FARSC for these antimicrobials.

Abstract
Enrofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone widely used in animals including fish. Intramuscular (IM) injection of enrofloxacin is a feasible and efficacious option for drug delivery. In many species IM injection has been associated with injection site reactions and increases in serum muscle enzymes. Injection site reactions have not been well characterized in fish. Three groups of striped bass (Morone saxatilis) received an IM injection of enrofloxacin 2.27% in the right epaxial musculature 24, 48, or 96 hr prior to evaluation. Mean dose was 7.69 mg/ kg (6.14-9.69 mg/kg). The 24- and 48-hr groups received an injection of equal-volume 0.9% saline in the left epaxial musculature. A corresponding noninjected tissue sample was designated in the left epaxial musculature from each fish of the 96-hr group. Fish were euthanized and injection sites and noninjection control sites were evaluated grossly and histologically. Grades 1-4 were assigned to samples, with grade 1 corresponding to normal tissue and grades 2, 3, and 4 corresponding to mild, moderate, and severe inflammation and/or necrosis respectively. Externally, all control and injection sites appeared visually unremarkable. On cut surface, epaxial muscle of the enrofloxacin-injected tissue appeared moderately to severely hemorrhagic compared to saline and noninjected tissue, which was normal or mildly hemorrhagic. Histologically, eight of eight noninjected tissues were grade 1. For saline-injected tissues, 14 of 16 tissues were grade 2 and 2 samples were grade 3 when 24- and 48-hr groups were combined. For enrofloxacin-injected tissues, 8 of the 8 24-hr samples were grade 3 and 16 of the 16 48- and 96-hr samples were grade 4. These data show that IM injection of enrofloxacin 2.27% is associated with severe hemorrhage, necrosis, and inflammation in striped bass, and may negatively affect animal welfare.

Abstract
Plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) and tissue disposition of enrofloxacin (EFX) was studied in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) after a single oral administration of 10 mg/kg, and by immersion baths of 20 ppm during 2.5 h and 100 ppm during 0.5 h, at water temperature of 16.3 ± 0.3 °C.Concentrations of EFX in plasma and tissues (skin, muscle, liver, kidney and gut) were determined using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detection.Pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed with a non-compartmental model. After oral administration, t½β, AUC and AUCtissues/AUCplasma ratio were 42.98 h, 21.80μg-h/ml and ≤ 18.63, respectively.After immersion baths of 20 ppm during 2.5 h and 100 ppm during 0.5 h, the t½β, AUC and AUCtissues/AUCplasma were 42.77 and 44.67, 9.83 and 12.83 μg-h/ml and ≤ 9.81 and ≤ 7.13, respectively.Therefore, oral (10 mg/kg) and bath administration in rainbow trout can provide AUC/MIC of ≥125 and Cmax/MIC of ≥10 to treat diseases caused by susceptible bacteria with MIC ≤ 0.04 μg/ml. This information can be helpful for the right use of EFX in rainbow trout. Also, this is the first study that determines the antibiotic tissue disposition in rainbow trout by using different administration routes.

Abstract
This study examined the uptake, tissue distribution and elimination of the antibacterial agents oxolinic acid and flumequine in lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) by use of LC-MS/MS following a single oral administration of 25 mg/kg fish given in feed. Lumpfish are increasingly used as cleaner fish for removal of sea lice on commercially farmed salmon. The production of lumpfish is successful, but there are challenges with bacterial infections and the number of antibacterial treatments has increased in recent years. As the lumpfish is a novel species to farming, there is a need for pharmacokinetic data and establishment of protocols for efficient antibacterial treatment. The current study describes the pharmacokinetic properties of oxolinic acid and flumequine in lumpfish. Absorption of oxolinic acid was moderate and was characterized by a calculated peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of 2.12 μg/ml after 10.3 h (Tmax) and an elimination half-life (t1/2β) of 21 h. Area under curve (AUC) and AUC from 0 to 24 h (AUC0−24h) were calculated to be 60.9 and 34.0 h μg/ml, respectively. For flumequine, plasma Cmax was found to be 2.77 μg/ml after 7.7 h (Tmax) with t1/2β of 22 h. The area under the curve (AUC) and AUC from 0 to 24 h (AUC0−24) were calculated as 104.3 and 50.3 h μg/ml, respectively. Corresponding Cmax values in muscle, liver, and head-kidney for oxolinic acid were 4.01, 3.04, and, 4.68 μg/g, respectively and Tmax of 11.1, 9.2, and 10.0 h, respectively. For flumequine, Cmax values of 4.16, 4.01, and 7.48 μg/g were obtained in muscle, liver, and head kidney, respectively, with corresponding Tmax values of 10.2, 10.3, and 6.0 h. Antimicrobial susceptibility values as determined by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) analyses against 28 isolates of Aeromonas salmonicida isolated from diseased lumpfish ranged from 0.06 to 15 μg/ml for oxolinic acid and 0.024 to 6.25 μg/ml for flumequine. Bimodal distributions in susceptibility to both oxolinic acid and flumequine were observed. The combination of pharmacokinetic properties and MIC data make possible calculation of efficient treatment doses, which are needed to improve the welfare of lumpfish and minimize development of antibiotic resistant bacteria.

Abstract
Early reports accounted for two main genotypes of Piscirickettsia salmonis, a fish pathogen and causative agent of piscirickettsiosis, placing the single isolate EM-90 apart from the prototypic LF-89 and related isolates. In this study, we provide evidence that, contrary to what has been supposed, the EM-90-like isolates are highly prevalent and disseminated across Chilean marine farms. Molecular analysis of 507 P. salmonis field isolates derived from main rearing areas, diverse hosts and collected over 6 years, revealed that nearly 50% of the entire collection were indeed typed as EM-90-like. Interestingly, these isolates showed a marked host preference, being recovered exclusively from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) samples. Although both strains produce undistinguishable pathological outcomes, differences regarding growth kinetics and susceptibility to the antibiotics and bactericidal action of serum could be identified. In sum, our results allow to conclude that the EM-90-like isolates represent an epidemiologically relevant group in the current situation of piscirickettsiosis. Based on the consistency between genotype and phenotype exhibited by this strain, we point out the need for genotypic studies that may be as important for the Chilean salmon industry as the continuous surveillance of antimicrobial susceptibility patterns.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetic properties and tissue distribution of enrofloxacin (EF) were investigated after single intramuscular (i.m.) dose of 10 mg/kg body weight (b.w.) in Pacific white shrimp at 22 to 25°C. EF and its metabolite ciprofloxacin (CF) were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. After i.m. administration, EF was absorbed quickly, and the peak of EF concentration (Cmax ) reached at first time point in hemolymph. The volume of distribution Vd(area) of EF was 3.84 L/kg, indicating that the distribution of EF was good. The area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of EF was 90.1 and 274.2 μg hr/ml in muscle and hepatopancreas, respectively, which was higher than 75.8 μg hr/ml in hemolymph. The EF elimination was slow in muscle and hepatopancreas with the half-life (T1/2β ) of 52.3 and 75.8 hr, respectively. CF, the mainly metabolite of EF, was detected in hemolymph, muscle and hepatopancreas. The Cmax was 0.030, 0.013 and 0.218 μg/ml, respectively. Based on a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.006-0.032 μg/ml for susceptible strains, EF i.m. injected at a dose 10 mg/kg could be efficacious against common pathogenic bacteria of Pacific white shrimp.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of enrofloxacin (ENR) was studied in crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) after single administration by intramuscular (IM) injection and oral gavage (PO) at a dose of 10 mg/kg body weight and by 5 mg/L bath for 5 hr at 25°C. The plasma concentrations of ENR and ciprofloxacin (CIP) were determined by HPLC. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated based on mean ENR or CIP concentrations using WinNonlin 6.1 software. After IM, PO and bath administration, the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax ) of 2.29, 3.24 and 0.36 μg/ml was obtained at 4.08, 0.68 and 0 hr, respectively; the elimination half-life (T1/2β ) was 80.95, 62.17 and 61.15 hr, respectively; the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) values were 223.46, 162.72 and 14.91 μg hr/ml, respectively. CIP, an active metabolite of enrofloxacin, was detected and measured after all methods of drug administration except bath. It is possible and practical to obtain therapeutic blood concentrations of enrofloxacin in the crucian carp using IM, PO and bath immersion administration.

Investigation and management of an outbreak of multispecies mycobacteriosis in Australian lungfish (Neoceratodus fosteri) including the use of triple antibiotic treatment.

Abstract
Disease due to non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is common in fish. Current recommendations focus on outbreak management by depopulating entire fish stocks and disinfecting tanks. Treatment is not advocated. Treatment may be appropriate, however, where individual, valuable fish are concerned. ZSL London Zoo managed an outbreak of mycobacteriosis in a valuable group of imported F1 captive-bred Australian lungfish (Neoceratodus fosteri) by depopulation, isolation, extensive testing and daily oral antibiotic treatment. Four species of Mycobacterium (M. marinum, M. fortuitum, M. chelonae and M. peregrinum) were involved in this outbreak, each with unique antibiotic sensitivities. Triple therapy with rifampicin, doxycycline and enrofloxacin for 8 months was the most effective antibiotic combination, resulting in full disease resolution. No side effects were noted and, more than 18 months post-treatment, no recurrence had occurred. This is the first report of mycobacterial disease in lungfish and the first report of a polymycobacterial outbreak in fish involving these four species of Mycobacterium. This report demonstrates the value of extensive isolation and identification. Also, as therapies currently advised in standard texts did not reflect the antibiotic sensitivity of the NTM found in the fish reported here, we recommend that antibiotic treatment should always be based on sensitivity testing.

Abstract
Enrofloxacin (ENX) has been widely used in the prevention and control of bacterial diseases in sturgeon aquaculture due to its characteristics of wide antibacterial spectrum, strong antibacterial activity, less toxicity and fewer side effects, rapid action, extensive in vivo distribution, and little cross-resistance with other antibiotics. However, the spinal abnormality was found in Acipenser baerii soon after ENX administration, which resulted an "S"-shaped curvature of the spine and retarded fish growth. It was still not clear whether ENX could cause spinal abnormality in sturgeons by now. The aim of this work was to determine the accumulation rule and toxicity of ENX to A. baerii when used at a high dose and/or unusually long durations. Here, ENX was orally given to A. baerii for 3-5 d continuously at the dosage of 0, 20, 40, and 80 mg/kg once daily, respectively. The accumulation of ENX in blood, liver, kidney, and cartilage was detected after withdrawal, and the tissues were made into sections for morphological examination. The results showed that the levels of ENX increased in the four tissues with the increase of dose and duration, and the ENX level in serum was far lower than that in other tissues. At 240 h, ENX levels in the four tissues decreased significantly. The histology indicated that the liver, kidney, and cartilage began to show structural damages at 5 d after withdrawal of 40 mg/kg ENX. The damage was aggravated at 3-5 d after withdrawal of 80 mg/kg ENX. At 240 h, the damaged tissues showed signs of recovery. These results suggested that ENX should be no more than 40 mg/kg and that exposure time should not be greater than 5 d to prevent liver, kidney, and cartilage damage. More attention should be paid to the impact of ENX on the occurrence and development of chondrocytes in juvenile A. baerii and the potential damage to the cartilage.

Abstract
Piscirickettsiosis is the most prevalent salt-water infectious disease in farmed salmonids in Chile. Antimicrobials are used to treat this disease; however, there is growing concern about the poor response to therapeutants on some fish farms. The objective of this study was to assess whether factors such as type of antibiotic used, average fish weight, temperature at the beginning of the treatment, and mortality at the time of treatment administration affect the probability of treatment failure against piscirickettsiosis. Pen-level treatment and production information for the first treatment event from 2014 pens on 118 farms was used in a logistic mixed model to assess treatment failure. We defined a failed treatment as when the average mortality 3 wk after the treatment was above 0.1%. Farm and company were included in the model as random effects. We found that the antibiotic product, mortality level before the treatment, and fish weight at the start of the treatment all had a significant effect on treatment outcome. Our results suggest that antibiotic treatment success is higher if the treatment is administered when mortality associated with piscirickettsiosis is relatively low. We discuss the effect of weight on treatment success and its potential relationships with husbandry practices and drug pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetic properties of sarafloxacin were investigated after single intravenous (i.v.) and oral (p.o.) administration of 10 mg/kg body weight (b.w.) in allogynogenetic silver crucian carp at 24-26 °C. The plasma concentrations of sarafloxacin were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. After i.v. administration, the plasma concentration-time data were described by an open two-compartment model. The elimination half-life (T(1/2β)) was estimated to be 22.58 h. The volume of distribution, V(d(area)), was estimated to be 5.95 L/kg, indicating good tissue penetration of sarafloxacin in the fish. Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and total body clearance of sarafloxacin were 56.86 µg·h/mL and 0.18 L/h/kg, respectively. Following p.o. administration, the maximum plasma concentration (C(max)), T(1/2β), and AUC of sarafloxacin were 0.79 µg/mL, 46.68 h, and 16.58 µg·h/mL, respectively. Absorption of the drug was not good with a bioavailability (F) of 29.15%. Based on a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.00625 to 0.045 μg/mL for susceptible strains, sarafloxacin p.o. administration at a dose 10 mg/kg could be efficacious against common pathogenic bacteria of fish.

Abstract
The Zebrafish Danio rerio is a popular vertebrate model organism used in a wide range of research fields. Importance is placed on Zebrafish health and the maintenance of disease-free laboratory fish so that experimental studies are not inadvertently affected. Mycobacteriosis, a common infection of laboratory Zebrafish, is caused by several Mycobacterium species. Little is known regarding the potential of antibiotic treatment for Zebrafish mycobacteriosis; however, treatment of infected Zebrafish may be appropriate to maintain valuable strains. Here, we investigated, in vitro, the antibiotic susceptibility of both rapid- and slow-growing isolates of Mycobacterium species from laboratory Zebrafish. Antibiotic testing was carried out using a commercially available 96-well microtiter plate format. Results indicated that some but not all antibiotics tested were effective at inhibiting mycobacterial growth and that susceptibility varied among species and strains. Tigecycline, tobramycin, clarithromycin, and amikacin were most effective at broad inhibition of rapid-growing mycobacteria; whereas, amikacin, clarithromycin, and rifampin were effective at inhibiting all slow-growing M. marinum strains tested. Results support the potential for targeted antibiotic treatment of Zebrafish infected with mycobacteria, but additional testing should be carried out in vivo.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to investigate the serum and tissue disposition of enrofloxacin and its active metabolite ciprofloxacin in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio) after a single oral administration at a dose of 10 mg kg(-1). Concentrations of enrofloxacin in the serum of rainbow trout showed high variability with two peaks at the third and 24th hour after administration. The highest concentrations were found in the liver. The curves of liver levels showed similar changes to the respective serum samples. In the muscles, enrofloxacin concentrations were also higher compared with the respective serum samples. Ciprofloxacin concentrations were lower and showed smaller variations in all investigated tissues. The serum and tissue concentrations of enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin in common carp showed two peaks, with the first Cmax at the third hour after drug administration as in rainbow trout. Concentrations of both investigated substances were higher in the liver than in the serum. The differences in common carp were less pronounced in comparison with rainbow trout. Relatively high levels of both substances were found in the muscles. Seven days after treatment enrofloxacin concentrations in the serum and tissues were within the therapeutic levels for most of the sensitive microorganisms in trout. Lower concentrations of its metabolite ciprofloxacin were found in the investigated tissues at the last sampling point. Lower levels of both substances were found in carp.

Abstract
An increase in fish production has consequently brought an increase in infectious diseases in fish farms. The use of chemotherapic drugs is the most effective instrument against common bacterial agents. The number of registered drugs for use in aquaculture is limited and often veterinary practitioners resort to the off-label use of chemotherapic agents authorized for different food-producing animal species. Florfenicol is well known for its outstanding effect against various pathogenic bacteria affecting fish, and therefore, it may be a useful drug for off-label use in aquaculture. The aim of this study was to evaluate the depletion of florfenicol and its major metabolite, florfenicol amine, from the edible tissue of two fish species, rainbow trout and sea bream, following treatment with medicated feed at a dosage of 10 mg kg(-1) of bw day(-1) , for 10 consecutive days. At prefixed time points after the end of administration (0.25, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 14 and 21 days after treatment), edible tissues (muscle plus adherent skin) from 15 individuals in each group were collected and analysed by HPLC, to determine concentration of the drug in the tissue. On the basis of the obtained concentrations, withdrawal times of florfenicol in the two species were calculated. The results indicate that a drug withdrawal time of 500 °C-day, as established by Directive 2004/28/EC, for off-label drug use is more than satisfactory to guarantee the healthiness of fish products against the risk of drug residues.

Abstract
Abstract
The quinolones are an important group of synthetic antimicrobial drugs used for treating bacterial diseases of humans and animals. Microorganisms transform antimicrobial quinolones (including fluoroquinolones) and the pharmacologically related naphthyridones, pyranoacridones, and cinnolones to a variety of metabolites. The biotransformation processes involve hydroxylation of methyl groups; hydroxylation of aliphatic and aromatic rings; oxidation of alcohols and amines; reduction of carboxyl groups; removal of methyl, carboxyl, fluoro, and cyano groups; addition of formyl, acetyl, nitrosyl, and cyclopentenone groups; and cleavage of aliphatic and aromatic rings. Most of these reactions greatly reduce or eliminate the antimicrobial activity of the quinolones.

Hagenbuch IM, Pinckney JL. Toxic effect of the combined antibiotics ciprofloxacin, lincomycin, and tylosin on two species of marine diatoms. WATER RESEARCH 2012; 46:5028-5036. [PMID: 22819871 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2012.06.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 51] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2012] [Revised: 06/18/2012] [Accepted: 06/23/2012] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
The role that antibiotics and other "emerging contaminants" play in shaping environmental microbial communities is of growing interest. The use of the prokaryotic metabolic inhibitors tylosin (T), lincomycin (L), and ciprofloxacin (C) in livestock and humans is both global and extensive. Each of these antibiotic compounds exhibits an affinity for sediment particles, increasing the likelihood of their deposition in the benthos of aquatic systems and each are often present in environmental samples. The purpose of this study was to determine if T, L, and C and their mixtures exhibit significant toxicity to two species of marine diatoms, an algal class comprised of ubiquitous eukaryotic primary producers. Subpopulations from laboratory cultures of Cylindrotheca closterium and Navicula ramosissima were reared in 24-well microtiter plates in the presence of single or combined antibiotics in dilution series. Population growth rates were assessed via epifluorescent microscopic cell counts, from which the half-max inhibitory concentrations (IC(50)) were calculated and used as part of a toxic unit (TU) method for assessing mixture interactions. The single-compound IC(50)'s were, for C. closterium: T = 0.27 mg L(-1), L = 14.16 mg L(-1), C = 55.43 mg L(-1), and for N. ramosissima: T = 0.99 mg L(-1), L = 11.08 mg L(-1), C = 72.12 mg L(-1). These values were generally higher than similar metrics for freshwater species. Mixture IC(50)'s were generally synergistic against C. closterium and additive for N. ramosissima. Both single and combined treatments reduced or eliminated diatom motility. Monochemical responses were similar between species and were not useful for predicting mixture interactions. Mixtures had compound-specific and species-specific effects, favoring N. ramosissima. These results suggest that anthropogenic antibiotics may play a significant role in the ecology of environmental benthic microbial communities. They also suggest single-compound/species studies do not yield useful predictions of the ecological impact of anthropogenic pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
European sea bass larvae were challenged by bath with Listonella anguillarum strain 332A, 2.5×10(7) CFUmL(-1) for 1h. Fish either received no treatment or oral treatment with Artemia franciscana (Kellog) nauplii enriched with oxolinic acid, or bath treatments with oxolinic acid. Medication commenced 1day following challenge and was performed on days 1, 3 and 5 post-challenge at a dosage of 20mgL(-1) for 2h for bath treatments, while two doses each of 750 nauplii per fish were administered daily for five consecutive days in oral treatments. Cumulative mortality reached 96% for the unmedicated challenged group, 32% in the group receiving bath treatments and 17% in the group receiving medicated nauplii. Pharmacokinetic parameters of oxolinic acid were calculated in sea bass larvae, for both treatments. Steady-state concentrations of oxolinic acid of 48.0 and 75.2μgg(-1) were achieved for bath treatment and oral treatment, respectively, while the elimination half-life was calculated to be 25.1h for bath treatment and 21.7h for oral treatment.

Abstract
Flavobacterium psychrophilum is the causative agent of the recognized diseases 'bacterial coldwater disease' and 'rainbow trout fry syndrome' and is found in many farmed freshwater and marine fish species. In Norway, the bacterium has mainly been isolated from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) and brown trout (Salmo trutta L.). In the present study, 26 isolates from Norwegian farmed salmonids were examined. All isolates were tested for susceptibility towards various antibacterial drugs by the disk diffusion method, and minimum inhibitory concentration values for oxolinic acid and flumequine were established for selected isolates. All isolates from rainbow trout displayed reduced susceptibility towards quinolones, while brown trout and Atlantic salmon isolates were susceptible. The quinolone resistance determining regions (QRDRs) of the gyrA, gyrB, parC, and parE genes were sequenced. Sequence analysis of the QRDR of gyrA in quinolone resistant isolates revealed a threonine:arginine amino acid substitution at position 82 in all 16 isolates from Norwegian rainbow trout and a single reference strain isolated from rainbow trout in Sweden. No evidence for plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance was found in any of the isolates. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and phylogenetic analysis of parC and gyrB sequences indicate a clonal relationship between rainbow trout isolates.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of enrofloxacin (EF) was investigated after single intravenous (i.v.) and oral (p.o.) administration of 10 mg/kg body weight (b.w.) in 300 healthy allogynogenetic silver crucian carp at 24-26°C. The plasma concentrations of EF and its metabolite ciprofloxacin (CF) were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. After i.v. administration, the plasma concentration-time data were described by an open two-compartment model. The elimination half-life (T(1/2β)), area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and total body clearance of EF were 63.5 h, 239.6 μg·h/mL and 0.04 L/h/kg, respectively. Following p.o. administration, the plasma concentration-time data showed a double peak-shaped curve, indicating the possibility of enterohepatic recirculation of EF in allogynogenetic silver crucian carp. The maximum plasma concentration (C(max)), T(1/2β) and AUC of EF were 4.5 μg/mL, 62.7 h and 205.9 μg·h/mL, respectively. Absorption of EF was very good with a bioavailability (F) of 86%, which could be correlated with the unique structure of the alimentary canal in allogynogenetic silver crucian. CF, an active metabolite of EF, was not detected in this study.

Abstract
A drug-drug interaction occurs when the effect of one drug is altered by the presence of another drug which is generally associated with the induction of cytochrome P450s (CYPs) activity. Thus, unexpected treatment failures often happen resulting from inappropriate coadministration in fisheries. However, little information is available about CYP induction in fish. The reaction of difloxacin (DIF) biotransformation to sarafloxacin (SAR) belongs to N-demethylation catalyzed mainly by CYP(s). In order to supply useful information on CYP induction, the present study assessed the effects of fish-specific CYP inducers on DIF N-demethylation and enzyme kinetics in kidney cell of Chinese idle (CIK; grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus)) by RP-HPLC. Results demonstrated that the amounts of SAR formation and enzymatic parameters Clint and Vmax were significantly increased due to beta-naphthoflavone (BNF) pretreatment. Therefore, we suggest that CYP1A may be involved in DIF N-demethylation in CIK. This study provides instructive information to ensure treatment success via avoiding CYP induction in fisheries.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) play key roles in drug metabolism which are widely distributed in kidney in aquatic organisms. CYP(s) mainly catalyzed the N-demethylation reaction of difloxacin (DIF) biotransformation to sarafloxacin (SAR). However, limited information is available about CYP investigation in fish. In order to supply useful information on CYP(s) characterization for DIF N-demethylation, the present study assessed the effects of fish potent CYP inducers and inhibitors on DIF N-demethylation and the inductive and inhibitive enzyme kinetics in kidney of Chinese idle (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Results demonstrated that the amounts of SAR formation pretreated by β-naphthoflavone (BNF) increased by 1.1-fold and α-naphthoflavone (ANF) inhibited SAR formation level by 0.6-fold at the third day. Enzymatic parameters V(max) and Cl(int) of DIF N-demethylase were increased by 0.56- and 0.38-fold due to β-naphthoflavone (BNF) pretreatment. DIF N-demethylation inhibition by varying ANF concentrations represented a mixed-type inhibition with the value of the inhibition constants (K(i)) 12.9mg/kg. BNF and ANF are the separate typical inducer and inhibitor for CYP1A in fish. Thus, we suggest that CYP1A may be responsible for DIF N-demethylation in kidney. This study provides instructive information to ensure treatment success in fisheries medication with two or more drugs.

Abstract
Veterinary medicine faces the unique challenge of having to treat many types of domestic animal species, including mammals, birds, and fishes. Moreover, these species have evolved into genetically unique breeds having certain distinguishable characteristics developed by artificial selection. The main challenge for veterinarians is not to select a drug but to determine, for the selected agent, a rational dosing regimen because the dosage regimen for a drug in a given species may depend on its anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, and behaviour as well as on the nature and causes of the condition requiring treatment. Both between- and within-species differences in drug response can be explained either by variations in drug pharmacokinetics (PK) or drug pharmacodynamics (PD), the magnitude of which varies from drug to drug. This chapter highlights selected aspects of species differences in PK and PD and considers underlying physiological and patho-physiological mechanisms in the main domestic species. Particular attention was paid to aspects of animal behaviour (food behaviour, social behavior, etc.) as a determinant of interspecies differences in PK or/and PD. Modalities of drug administration are many and result not only from anatomical, physiological and/or behavioural differences across species but also from management options. The latter is the case for collective/group treatment of food-producing animals, frequently dosed by the oral route at a herd or flock level. After drug administration, the main causes of observed inter-species differences arise from species differences in the handling of drugs (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination). Such differences are most common and of greatest magnitude when functions which are phylogenetically divergent between species, such as digestive functions (ruminant vs. non-ruminant, carnivore vs. herbivore, etc.), are involved in drug absorption. Interspecies differences also exist in drug action but these are generally more limited, except when a particular targeted function has evolved, as is the case for reproductive physiology (mammals vs. birds vs. fishes; annual vs. seasonal reproductive cycle in mammals; etc.). In contrast, for antimicrobial and antiparasitic drugs, interspecies differences are more limited and rather reflect those of the pathogens than of the host. Interspecies difference in drug metabolism is a major factor accounting for species differences in PK and also in PD (production or not of active metabolites). Recent and future advances in molecular biology and pharmacogenetics will enable a more comprehensive view of interspecies differences and also between breeds with existing polymorphism. Finally, the main message of this review is that differences between species are not only numerous but also often unpredictable so that no generalisations are possible, even though for several drugs allometric approaches do allow some valuable interspecies extrapolations. Instead, each drug must be investigated on a species-by-species basis to guarantee its effective and safe use, thus ensuring the well-being of animals and safeguarding of the environment and human consumption of animal products.

Abstract
The photodegradation of two fluoroquinolone veterinary antibiotics, difloxacin (DIF) and sarafloxacin (SARA) has been explored for the first time in aqueous systems. The study was performed to evaluate the influence of pH, inorganics, humic substances, and other additives. The drugs followed first-order degradation kinetics in matrix free aqueous medium with a rate constant 'k' value of 0.82 and 0.26 h(-1) for DIF and SARA, respectively. Studies performed at various pH revealed that the photolysis rates dropped sharply at pH >7 for DIF, while SARA dissipated faster with increasing pH. Humic substances acted as light barriers by attenuating the light intensity, to retard the drug degradation process. However, rapid drug dissipation was observed in the presence of additives like acetone, hydrogen peroxide, and phosphates, while inorganics such as fluoride, nitrate, and sulfate did not influence the drug photodegradation. Studies on the photolysis of DIF and SARA in river water revealed that both the drugs degraded rapidly under conditions that were relevant to natural systems, following direct photolysis mechanism. It was observed that SARA was the primary photoproduct of DIF and showed relatively a higher persistence than DIF. The findings were also substantiated by the quantum yield (Phi(c)) calculations. The analytical measurements were carried out with LC-MS/MS.

Abstract
Oxolinic acid (OA) and flumequine (FLU) are two of the quinolone antibiotics (QAs) that are widely used in aquaculture. The purpose of this study was to understand the fates of OA and FLU in waters and sediment slurries from aquaculture ponds in a laboratory experiment. Waters and sediments were sampled from an eel (Anguilla japonica) pond and a shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) pond. The effects of light, microbial activities, and temperature on the degradation of these two QAs were elucidated. Results indicated that light plays a major role in the degradation of OA and FLU in waters and sediment slurries. Under illuminated and non-sterile conditions, the half-lives (t(1/2)) of OA were 2.3-4.8 and 9.5-15.0 days in the waters and sediment slurries, respectively. For FLU, under the same conditions, t(1/2) values were 1.9-2.3 and 3.6-6.4 days, respectively. Photodegradation of OA and FLU was much faster in water than in sediment slurry. In both environments, degradation became very slow or would plateau after only minimal change in the dark. Besides the effect of light, biodegradation had very minor effects on the degradation of the two QAs in the sediment slurries. The only independent biodegradation was found when OA was placed in shrimp pond sediment slurry, but at a much lower rate (t(1/2) of 98.7 days) than in light. Biodegradation of FLU was also found in the eel pond sediment slurry but only through an additional connection with light. Also, re-addition enhanced the degradation of OA in shrimp pond sediment slurry, but slowed the degradation of FLU in the eel pond sediment slurry in the dark. The temperature experiment in this study showed no significant effects on degradation of the two QAs in either pond waters or sediment slurries.

Abstract
Enrofloxacin is the most widespread antibiotic in the fluoroquinolone family. As such, the development of a rapid and sensitive method for the determination of trace amounts of enrofloxacin is an important issue in the health field. The interaction of the enrofloxacin antigen to a specific antibody (Ab) immobilized on an 11-mercapto-undecanoic acid-coated gold electrode was quantified by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Two equivalent circuits were separately used to interpret the obtained impedance spectra. These circuits included one resistor in series with one parallel circuit comprised of a resistor and a capacitor (1R//C), and one resistor in series with two parallel RC circuits (2R//C). The results indicate that the antigen-antibody reaction analyzed using the 1R//C circuit provided a more sensitive resistance increment against the enrofloxacin concentration than that of the 2R//C circuit. However, the 2R//C circuit provided a better fitting for impedance spectra, and therefore supplies more detailed results of the enrofloxacin-antibody interaction, causing the increase of electron transfer resistance selectively to the modified layer, and not the electrical double layer. The antibody-modified electrode allowed for analysis of the dynamic linear range of 1-1000 ng/ml enrofloxacin with a detection limit of 1 ng/ml. The reagentless and label-free impedimetric immunosensors provide a simple and sensitive detection method for the specific determination of enrofloxacin.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of enrofloxacin and its active metabolite, ciprofloxacin, in Korean catfish after intravenous and oral administrations. Enrofloxacin was administered to Korean catfish by a single intravenous and oral administrations at the dose of 10 mg/kg body weight. The plasma concentrations from intravenous and oral administrations of enrofloxacin were determined by LC/MS. Pharmacokinetic parameters from both routes were described to have a two-compartmental model. After intravenous and oral administrations of enrofloxacin, the elimination half-lives (t(1/2,beta)), area under the drug concentration-time curves (AUC), oral bioavailability (F) were 17.44 +/- 4.66 h and 34.13 +/- 11.50 h, 48.1 +/- 15.7 microgxh/mL and 27.3 +/- 12.4 microgxh/mL, and 64.59 +/- 4.58% respectively. The 3.44 +/- 0.81 h maximum concentration (C(max)) of 1.2 +/- 0.2 microg/mL. Ciprofloxacin, an active metabolite of enrofloxacin, was detected at all the determined time-points from 0.25 to 72 h, with the C(max) of 0.17 +/- 0.08 microg/mL for intravenous dose. After oral administration, ciprofloxacin was detected at all the time-points except 0.25 h, with the C(max) of 0.03 +/- 0.01 microg/mL at 6.67 +/- 2.31 h. Ciprofloxacin was eliminated with terminal half-life t(1/2,beta) of 52.08 +/- 17.34 h for intravenous administration and 52.43 +/- 22.37 h for oral administration.

Abstract
The international production of farmed fish has been growing continuously over recent years. Until now few veterinary drugs have been approved by the European Union for use in aquaculture, and this has favored the off-label use of products authorized for use in food-producing animal species different from fishes among fish farmers. Adequate field studies are lacking, especially for those species called minor species which are consumed extensively only in some European countries. In the present investigation we studied the depletion of the fluoroquinolone antibacterial enrofloxacin over time in a minor species, the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), reared on a real fish farm and treated with medicated feed (10 mg kg of trout body weight(-1) day(-1)). Edible tissue samples (muscle plus skin in natural proportions) and fish bone samples were analyzed for enrofloxacin and for its major metabolite, ciprofloxacin, by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection at different times after the end of treatment. Our results show that at 500 degrees C-day (in which degree-days are calculated by multiplying the mean daily water temperature by the total number of days on which the temperature was measured), which is the minimum withdrawal period established by European Economic Commission Directive No. 82/2001 for any type of product administered off-label, edible trout tissues might still contain about 170 microg of enrofloxacin kg(-1), whereas the maximum residue level for enrofloxacin plus ciprofloxacin is set at 100 microg kg(-1). To our knowledge, no studies of the depletion of enrofloxacin in rainbow trout have been performed. On the basis of the data obtained in the present study, we suggest a more appropriate withdrawal time of 816 degrees C-day for the sum of enrofloxacin plus ciprofloxacin levels in rainbow trout muscle plus skin tissues.

Abstract
The mechanisms of resistance to quinolone and epidemiological relationships among A. salmonicida strains isolated from diseased fish in French marine farms from 1998 to 2000 were investigated. The quinolone resistance-determining regions of the gyrA and parC genes of 12 clinical A. salmonicida isolates with different levels of quinolone susceptibility were sequenced. MICs were determined in the presence of the efflux pump inhibitor (EPI) Phe-Arg beta-naphthylamide and E(max) values (MIC without EPI/MIC in the presence of EPI) were calculated. Isolates fell into two classes: (i) those that had a wild-type gyrA gene with oxolinic acid MIC </= 0.5, flumequine MIC </= 1 and ciprofloxacin MIC </= 0.25 micro g ml(-1); and (ii) those that had a single mutation in gyrA encoding Asp-87 --> Asn with oxolinic acid MIC >/= 2, flumequine MIC >/= 4 and ciprofloxacin MIC >/= 0.125 micro g ml(-1). No mutations were found in parC. High E(max) values obtained for flumequine and oxolinic acid (up to 16 and 8, respectively, for the most resistant isolates of the two classes) indicated an important contribution of efflux to the resistance phenotype. Flumequine accumulation experiments confirmed that high E(max) values were associated with a much lower level of accumulation. PCR/RFLP assays conducted on 34 additional isolates showed the presence of a mutation at codon 87 of gyrA in nearly all the quinolone-resistant isolates. This finding, together with PFGE typing results, strongly suggests a common clonal origin of these quinolone-resistant isolates.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the allometric analysis of ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin using pharmacokinetic data from the literature. The pharmacokinetic parameters used were half-life, clearance and volume of distribution. Relationships between body weight and the pharmacokinetic parameter were based on the empirical formula Y = aW(b), where Y is half-life, clearance or volume of distribution, W the body weight and a is an allometric coefficient (intercept) that is constant for a given drug. The exponential term b is a proportionality constant that describes the relationship between the pharmacokinetic parameter of interest and body weight. A total of 21 different species of animals were studied. Results of the allometric analyses indicated similarity between clearance and volume of distribution as they related to body weight for both drugs. Results of the current analyses indicate it is possible to use allometry to predict pharmacokinetic variables of enrofloxacin or ciprofloxacin based on body size of species. This could provide information on appropriate doses of ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin for all species.

Abstract
In recent years, the fate of pharmacological substances in the aquatic environment have been more and more studied. Oxolinic acid (OA), flumequine (FLU) and oxytetracycline (OTC) are commonly used antibacterial agents. A large amount of these drugs is released into water directly by dissolved fraction and indirectly in urine and feces. Monitoring these compounds in the freshwater environment is difficult because of the lack of suitable indicators. The aim of this work was to evaluate the OA, FLU and OTC bioaccumulation abilities of Fontinalis antipyretica Hedw., known for heavy metal bioaccumulation. The experiment described was decomposed for two times: a 10-days accumulation period during which bryophytes were in contact with antibiotics and a 15-days post-exposure period during which bryophytes were in water with no antibiotic. This experiment showed that this bryophyte strongly accumulates OA, FLU and OTC in freshwater. Bioaccumulation factors (ratio of concentrations in bryophyte and water) ranged between 75 and 450. Moreover, OA, FLU and OTC persisted in the bryophyte for a long time with clearance between 0.19 and 3.04 ng/g/day. Mean residence times ranged between 18 and 59 days. Accumulation and decontamination mechanism models were proposed.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetic properties of the antibacterial agent oxolinic acid and vetoquinol, the carbitol ester of oxolinic acid, were studied after intravenous (i.v.) and oral (p.o.) administration to 100-150 g cod, Gadus morhua L., held in sea water at 8 degrees C. Following i.v. injection, the plasma drug concentration-time profile showed two distinct phases. The distribution half-life (t1/2alpha) was estimated at 1.3 h, the elimination half-life (t1/2beta) as 84 h and the total body clearance (Cl(T)) as 0.047 L kg(-1) h(-1). The volume of distribution at steady state, Vd(ss) was calculated to be 5.5 L kg(-1), indicating good tissue penetration of oxolinic acid in cod. Following p.o. administration of oxolinic acid or vetoquinol, the peak plasma concentrations (C(max)) of oxolinic acid and the time to peak plasma concentrations (T(max) were estimated to be 1.2 and 2.5 microg mL(-1) and 24 and 12 h, respectively. The bioavailabilities of oxolinic acid following p.o. administration of oxolinic acid and vetoquinol were calculated to be 55 and 72%, respectively. The in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of oxolinic acid against three strains of Vibrio anguillarum isolated from diseased cod were 0.016 microg mL(-1) (HI-610), 0.250 microg mL(-1) (HI-618) and 0.250 microg mL(-1) (HI-A21). Based on a MIC value of 0.016 microg mmL(-1) a single p.o. administration of 25 mg kg(-1) of oxolinic acid maintains plasma levels in excess of 0.064 microg mL(-1), corresponding to four times the MIC-value, for approximately 12 days. The analogous value for a single p.o. dose of 25 mg kg(-1) of oxolinic acid administered as vetoquinol was 13 days.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetic properties of the antibacterial agents oxolinic acid and flumequine were studied in corkwing wrasse (Symphodus melops) after either intraperitoneal injection or bath treatment. Following intraperitoneal administration the peak plasma concentrations (Cmax) and the time to peak plasma concentrations (Tmax) were estimated to be 2.0 microg/mL and 12 h, respectively, for oxolinic acid and 2.6 microg/mL and 12 h, respectively, for flumequine. In muscle, Cmax and Tmax were estimated to 6.7 microg/g and 12 h, respectively, for oxolinic acid with corresponding values of 8.5 microg/g and 13 h, respectively, for flumequine. In liver, Cmax and Tmax were calculated to 7.0 microg/g and 12 h, respectively, for oxolinic and 12.2 microg/g and 11 h, respectively, for flumequine. Elimination half-lives (t1/2 beta) of 26, 24 and 29 h, respectively, for plasma, muscle and liver were calculated for flumequine. For oxolinic acid two distinct elimination phases were found and calculated to be 16 h (t1/2 beta) and 57 h (t1/2 gamma) in plasma, 15 and 59 h, respectively, in muscle and 20 and 72 h, respectively, in liver. Bath treatment using 150 mg/L of flumequine or 200 mg/L of oxolinic acid for 72 h resulted in flumequine concentrations of 1.0 microg/mL in plasma, 5.0 microg/g in muscle and 12.4 microg/g in liver. Corresponding values for oxolinic acid were 1.0 microg/g in plasma, 2.5 microg/g in muscle and 4.9 microg/g in liver.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of sarafloxacin applied by oral gavage at a dose of 15 mg/kg b.w. was studied in eel (Anguilla anguilla) at water temperature of 24 degrees C. Sarafloxacin levels were determined using high performance liquid chromatography with a quantitation limit of 0.07 microg/ml or gram. The time to peak plasma concentration, Tmax, was 12 hr and peak concentration, Cmax, was 2.64 microg/ml. The absorption rate constant (k(a)) was 0.23 hr(-1) (r=0.996). The drug disposition curve after Tmax was fitted to a two-compartment open model. The distribution rate constant (alpha) was 0.085 hr(-1) (r=0.972), and the half-life (t(1,2alpha)) was 8.15 hr. The elimination rate constant (beta) was 0.023 hr(-1) (r=0.909), and the half-life (t(1/2beta)) was 30.13 hr. The estimated area under the curve, AUC, was 56.7 microg.hr/ml. The peak concentrations of drug in liver, kidney, muscle, and skin were 13.39 (12 hr), 5.53 (12 hr), 1.82 (24 hr), and 0.78 microg/g (40 hr), respectively. The time for sarafloxacin mean levels to fall below detectable limits in the plasma, muscle, and skin were 7 days but for the liver and kidney were 14 days.

Abstract
Flumequine was administered to halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) and turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) intravenously (i.v.) and orally (p.o.) at a dose of 10 mg/ kg bodyweight, and as a bath-treatment at a dose of 10 mg/L water for 2 h, using identical experimental designs. The study was performed in seawater with a salinity of 3% and a temperature of 10.3+/-0.4 degrees C (halibut) and 18.0+/-0.3 degrees C (turbot). Pharmacokinetic modelling of the data showed that flumequine had quite similar pharmacokinetic properties in halibut and turbot. Following intravenous administration, the volumes of distribution at steady state (Vss) were 2.99 L/kg (halibut) and 3.75 L/kg (turbot). Plasma clearances (Cl) were 0.12 L/kg (halibut) and 0.17 L/h x kg (turbot) and the elimination half-lives (t(1/2lambdaz)) were calculated to be 32 h (halibut) and 34 h (turbot). Mean residence times (MRT) were 25.1 h (halibut) and 22.2 h (turbot). Following oral administration, the t(1/2lambdaz) were 43 h (halibut) and 42 h (turbot). Maximal plasma concentrations (tmax) were 1.4 mg/L (halibut) and 1.9 mg/L (turbot), and were observed 7 h post administration in both species. The oral bioavailabilities (F) were calculated to 56% (halibut) and 59% (turbot). Following bath administration maximal plasma concentrations were 0.08 mg/L (halibut) and 0.14 mg/ L (turbot), and were observed 0 h (halibut) and 3 h (turbot) after the end of the bath. The bioavailability in halibut following a 2-h bath treatment was 5%.

Abstract
1. The pharmacokinetics of oxolinic acid have been studied in 500 g turbot (Scophthalmus maximus). The fish were kept in seawater at 16 degrees C with a 15 h/9 h photoperiod. Oxolinic acid was administered orally via a stomach tube at a single dose of 10 mg/kg of body weight. Serum concentrations of oxolinic acid were determined by a (HPLC) using liquid phase extraction with an internal standard and a fluorescence detection. 2. The pharmacokinetic process was not significantly sex-influenced. The short elimination phase of the oxolinic acid in turbot after oral administration was similar to the elimination after intravascular administration. The serum concentration profile of oxolinic acid was better described by a discontinuous absorption model than by compartment models using continuous absorption processes. The absorption of oxolinic acid in turbot was characterized by two distinct phases after a lag time of about 2 h. A time (Tmax) of 12 h was necessary to reach the peak serum concentration (Cmax) of 1.41 microg/ml. The oral bioavailability was 27.9%. 3. Based on the minimum inhibitory concentration for susceptible strains, and especially Vibrio anguillarum, the oxolinic acid could be effective in turbot after an oral treatment of 10 mg/kg/day.

Abstract
The antimicrobial drug flumequine was given intravascularly and orally to cannulated and non-cannulated Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in sea water at 11 degrees C. The cannulated fish were divided into two groups, which were given flumequine (25 mg/kg) intravenously into the caudal vein (n = 8) and orally via a stomach tube down the oesophagus (n = 8). After a washout period of 2 days, the intravenously administered fish were given the drug orally, and the orally administered fish were given the drug intravenously. Blood samples were taken at different time points after drug administration through a cannula inserted into the dorsal aorta. The fish in the non-cannulated group were either given flumequine intravenously or orally, and blood samples were collected by killing five fish at predetermined time points after administration. The haematocrit values were measured in all the fish daily for 4 days after drug administration and thereafter, in all the collected blood samples throughout the whole experiment. The haematocrit values differed significantly between the cannulated and the non-cannulated fish. We found low haematocrit values and slow drug elimination in the cannulated groups, compared with higher haematocrit values and faster drug elimination in the non-cannulated groups, but further investigations are needed to prove any causal relations of this observation. The volume of distribution (Vd(ss)) was twice as large in the cannulated groups compared with the non-cannulated group, in the fish administered the drug intravenously. In the last part of the elimination phase, the half-lives differed considerably between the cannulated and the non-cannulated groups both after oral and intravenous administration. The slower depletion of the drug concentration in the plasma of the cannulated fish is due to the large Vd(ss) as there are only small differences in clearance (ClT) between the groups. In this study the elimination of flumequine in cannulated Atlantic salmon differed from the elimination of flumequine in non-cannulated Atlantic salmon.
