Tissue distribution and residue depletion of oxytetracycline in sea bream (Sparus aurata) and sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) after oral administration (original) (raw)

Abstract

Tissue distribution and residue depletion of oxytetracycline (OTC) following oral administration were evaluated in sea bream and sea bass under field conditions. Fish were held in floating cages placed in sea water and fed a commercial medicated diet containing 7.5 g/kg of OTC once daily for 14 days at a rate of 1.0% (75 mg a.i./kg) biomass per day. Muscle, liver, vertebrae, and skin with scales were sampled from fishes netted at different intervals during (2"d, 4rh, 6rh,10th, and 14th day) and after treatment (lOth, 20th, 30th, 401h, .50th, and 60th day). OTC analyses were carried out by HPLC, after SPE extraction. In sea bream, a great variation in drug intake was evident from the inter-subject differences in OTC tissue concentrations. The highest recorded concentrations were in skin and pooled liver (7.70 + 6.71 pg/g and 14.65 kg/g at the 6rh day, respectively). Vertebrae showed concentrations even six-fold higher than those in muscle, and reached steady state concentrations at the 40th day after the end of treatment (1.73 + 0.92 p,g/g), lasting until the end of the study. OTC concentrations in muscle were lower than in all the other tissues throughout the entire experiment and declined under 0.1 p,g/g 20 days after treatment ceased. In sea bass a high mortality not related to infectious diseases was observed and muscle samples had only traces or no detectable OTC levels even during medication.
