This study aimed to assess the presence of staphylococcal subclinical mastitis (SCM) in Uruguayan dairy farms and to identify Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) in milking cows. In addition, the antibiotic susceptibility of isolated staphylococci was evaluated. Methodology: We tested 546 apparently healthy milking cows from 11 farms for detecting SCM using the California Mastitis Test (CMT). The cows were not treated with antibiotics. CMT-positive samples were cultured, and colonies compatible with Staphylococcus spp. were further identified through molecular techniques. The susceptibility of the Staphylococcus spp. isolates against thirteen antibiotics was determined using the disk diffusion method. Results: Subclinical staphylococcal mastitis was present in almost all (82%) farms. ...

The main excipients used for CR formulations were Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose, Cetyl Alcohol, Gelucire 50/02 ® and Alginic Acid. Pharmacotechnical quality control tests were successfully completed. Twelve parasite-free no pregnant dogs were randomly divided into six groups and received different treatments (single oral doses) using an incomplete block design (two phases) (n=4). Phase I: treatment "A" (ABZ-based immediate-release formulation [25 mg/kg]). Treatment "B" (RBZ-based immediate release formulation [20 mg/kg]) and treatments from "C" to "F" (CR formulations [20 mg/kg]). Phase II was performed after 21 days of washout period. Blood samples were collected over 48 h and analysed by UV High Performance Liquid Chromatography. In vitro dissolution profiles showed that matrices agents favored a reservoir effect. Active metabolite Albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO) or Ricobendazole (RBZ) plasma exposure measured in terms of area under concentration vs time curve (AUC) of all RBZ formulations was greater (p<0,05) when compared with that obtained for ABZ reference formulation. No statistical differences in AUC values were found among all RBZ formulations assayed (p>0.05). Nevertheless, RBZ-Cetyl alcohol formulation showed a statistical difference on its time peak concentration (p<0.05). In conclusion the results obtained in vitro do not correlate with those obtained in vivo, being this work useful to identify other matrices developers in RBZ-CR formulations.
