Article Synopsis
  • - Lasalocid sodium is an ionophore agent used in poultry as a coccidiostat, but it poses risks for drug residue in eggs, mainly affecting laying hens due to feed contamination.
  • - Different breeds of hens, like Isa Brown and Green-legged Partridge, show significant differences in egg production and may also impact how lasalocid is absorbed and eliminated in their bodies.
  • - The study aimed to establish pharmacokinetic parameters for lasalocid in laying hens, using a crossover design, and found that the absorption rate is low (36%) and varies based on the hen breed.

Cannabidiol (CBD) products gain increasing popularity amongst animal owners and veterinarians as an alternative remedy for treatment of stress, inflammation or pain in horses. Whilst the use of cannabinoids is banned in equine sports, there is limited information available concerning CBD detection times in blood or urine. The aim of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetic properties of CBD following oral administration in the horse to assist doping control laboratories with interpreting CBD analytical results.

Poultry production is linked with the use of veterinary medicinal products to manage diseases. Ionophore coccidiostats have been permitted for use as feed additives within the European Union (EU) for the prevention of coccidiosis in various species of poultry with except of laying hens. The presence of chemical residues in eggs is a matter of major concern for consumers' health.

The study aimed to investigate the possible role of efflux transporter proteins in the pharmacokinetics of enrofloxacin (ENR) in broilers in the model of co-administration of activated charcoal (AC) or cyclosporine A (CsA). The concentrations of enrofloxacin and its metabolite ciprofloxacin were analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and population approach was used for pharmacokinetic analysis. It was found that body weight has a significant effect on the volume of distribution in the central compartment and on the systemic clearance.
