Abstract

Sulfaquinoxaline (SQX) and trimethoprim (TMP) are chemotherapeutics that are extensively used in various animal species for the treatment or prevention of coccidia and coccidia-like parasites. Little information about the depletion kinetics of these compounds in chickens exists in the literature. In this study, a new commercial liquid concentrate of SQX in combination with TMP (100 g/l of SQX and 33.4 g/l of TMP) was administered with drinking water at a dose of 0.75 ml/l or 1.5 ml/l. The edible tissue concentrations of the drugs were determined by the validated high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometric method. Residue concentrations of SQX and TMP were lower than their maximum residual limits (MRLs) in all tissues from both dose groups at 5 days after the treatment. The optimal withdrawal time of SQX/TMP combination was suggested to be over 5 days after cessation of medication in broilers.

설파퀴녹살린과 트리메토프림 합제는 닭콕시듐병의 예방과 치료목적으로 널리 사용하고 있으나, 닭에서의 잔류에 관한 연구보고는 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 음수첨가용 액제로 신규 개발된 설파퀴녹살린 및 트리메토프림 합제 (설파퀴녹살린, 100 g/L; 트리메토프림, 33.4 g/L)를 육계에 음수 리터당 본제 0.75 mL 및 1.5 mL를 3일간 투여한 후 살처분하여 가식부위내 잔류농도를 액체크로마토그래프/질량분석기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 그 결과 약물 투여 후 7일째에는 모든 가식부위내에서 설파퀴녹살린 및 트리메토프림은 검출되지 않았다. 따라서 신규 음수첨가용 액제인 설파퀴녹살린 및 트리메토프림 합제의 휴약기간은 최소 5일 이상으로 설정되어야 할 것이다.
