Abstract
The residue levels of sulfadimethoxine (SDM) was studied after oral administration to cultured olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus at $20{\pm}1.0^{\circ}C$. The concentrations of SDM in the plasma and liver were determined by HPLC-UV detector after a single dosage of 400 mg/kg body weight. The average recoveries of SDM in spiked samples between 2~50 ppm were 92.24~93.62% for plasma and 88.34~91.90% for liver. Limit of detection for SDM was 0.05 ppm by using this method. Samples were taken at 1 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, 168 h, 240 h, 336 h and 480 h post-dose. The peak plasma and liver concentrations of SDM, which attained at 1 h post-dose, was $402.64{\pm}59.66{\mu}g/ml$ and $238.18{\pm}54{\mu}g/g$, respectively. Thereafter, it's elimination from both tissues was considerably faster following process of time. Their concentrations of SDM were not measurable at 480 h post-dose. Based on this results, dosage and withdrawal times for SDM could be used when it is prescribed with SDM in olive flounder.
설파디메톡신(sulfadimethoxine, SDM)을 넙치(평균 체중 $100{\pm}20$ g, $20{\pm}1.0^{\circ}C$)에 대하여 400 mg/kg의 농도로 1회 경구 투여한 다음, 혈장과 간에서 시간 경과에 따른 잔류량을 HPLC로써 분석하였다. SDM을 넙치의 조직에 2~50 ppm의 농도가 되도록 첨가한 결과, 평균 회수율은 혈장에서 92.24~93.62%, 간에서 88.34~91.90%의 범위로 나타났으며, 이 분석법의 검출한계는 0.05 ppm이었다. SDM은 투여한 후, 1시간 째에 혈액($402.64{\pm}59.66{\mu}g/ml$)과 간($238.18{\pm}54.00{\mu}g/ml$)에서 모두 최고농도로 분포하였다. 이후 SDM은 빠른 속도로 배설되었으며, 480시간째는 혈장과 간에서 검출되지 않았다.
