A comparative tissue distribution study of oxytetracycline in rainbow trout,Oncorhynchus mykiss(Walbaum), and chinook salmon,Oncorhynchus tshawytscha(Walbaum)

Abstract: Oxytetracycline (OTC), a broad‐spectrum antibiotic, is used widely to treat bacterial diseases in farmed fish. In the present study, the time course of OTC concentrations in freshwater rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum), and seawater chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Walbaum), were compared, tissue by tissue, after receiving a bolus dose of the antibiotic (5 mg kg–1 or 50 mg kg–1) intra‐arterially (i.a.). The OTC concentration–time profiles of rainbow trout tissues were found to be very simil… Show more

“…[39] However, uptake rates of pharmaceuticals can, for example, be affected by temperature, oxygen availability [36] and prey consumption, [6] whereas elimination patterns and half-lives of pharmaceuticals can be tissue-specific in fish. [40,41] In laboratory studies, fish are typically exposed to stable pharmaceutical concentrations under controlled and stable environmental conditions. However, individuals in natural systems move freely along different and temporally variable environmental gradients, such as gradients in temperature, oxygen and prey availability, as well as gradients of pharmaceutical contamination.…”

“…The elimination half‐life of OTC in E. sinensis was longer than that in fish (Xu & Rogers 1995; Namdari, Abedini & Law 1999; Zhang & Li 2007). Similarly, the elimination half‐lives of OTC in E. sinensis were longer than the corresponding values in M. rosenbergii and Penaeus chinensis (Wang, Lin, Xue & Khalid 2004a; Poapolathep et al.…”

“…In general, the T½ estimations for all trials were between 12 and 19.8 days post injection, except for T‐1 and T‐3 of Rainbow trout under controlled conditions. From a review of previous studies, a great variation in T½ estimations was observed, ranging from 2 to 15 days (Black, Ferguson, Byrne & Claxton, ; Meinertz et al., ; Namdari, Abedini & Law, , ). It is important to note that most of the studies reviewed showed T½ values around 5 days, and only one work showed a T½ of 15 days (Namdari et al., ), being the later carried out for rainbow trout and Chinook salmon after the administration of intravenous OTC at doses of 50 and 5 mg/kg, respectively.…”
