옥시테트라사이클린 (OTC)을 넙치 (평균체중 600 g)에 1회 근육 주사 (12.5, 25 및 50 ㎎/㎏ body weight)한 다음, 경시적 (3시간-360시간) 인 혈장내 OTC의 잔류농도를 분석하였다. 25 및 50 ㎎/㎏ 시험구에서 투여 5시간째 각각 0.99 및 1.49 $\mu{g}/m\ell$로 최대혈중농도를 나타내었으나, 12.5 ㎎/㎏ 시험구는 투여 10시간째 0.35 $\mu{g}/m\ell$로 최대혈중농도를 나타내었다. 모든 시험구는 투여 360시간째 혈중에서 OTC가 검출되지 않 았다. OTC의 넙치 체내 약물 혈중농도 측정결과를 바탕으로 1- compartment model로 Win-Nonlin program을 이용하여 OTC의 흡수, 배설,반감기 등 약물동태학적 매개변수 (parameter)를 조사하였다. 12.5, 25 및 50 ㎎/㎏을 근육 주사한 경우, 혈장농도-시간곡선하 면적 (AUC)은 각각 24.9, 44.67 및 50.45 $\mu{g}$ $h/m\ell$, 약물의 반감기 ($T_{1/2}$)는 각각 0.42, 0.59 및 0.41 h, 혈중최고농도의 도달시간 ($T_{max}$)은 8.46, 6.34 및 2.66 h, 혈중 최고농도 ($C_{max}$)는 0.30, 0.63 및 1.13 $\mu{g}/m\ell$로 계산되었다.
The pharmacokinetic properties of oxytetracycline (OTC) were studied after intramuscular injection to cultured olive flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus. Plasma concentrations of OTC were determined after dosage of 12.5, 25 and 50 ㎎/㎏ body weight in olive flounder (average 600 g, $23{\pm}1{^{\circ}C}$). Plasma samples were taken at 3, 5, 10, 15, 24, 32, 48, 72, 120, 168, 240 and 360 h post-dose. With 25 and 50 ㎎/㎏, the peak plasma concentrations of OTC, which attained at 5 h post-dose, were 0.99 and 1.49 $\mu{g}/m\ell$, respectively. However, the peak plasma concentration of 12.5 ㎎/㎏ was 0.35 $\mu{g}/m\ell$ after 10 h post-dose. Plasma concentrations of OTC were not measurable at 360 h post-dose in all doses. The kinetic profile of absorption, distribution and elimination of OTC in plasma were analyzed fitting to a 1-compartment model by Win-Nonlin program. The following parameters were calculated for 12.5, 25 and 50 ㎎/㎏ body weight, respectively: AUC (the area under the concentration-time curve)?D���D24.98, 44.67 and 50.45 $\mu{g}$ $h/m\ell$ $T_{1/2}$ (half-life) ?D���D0.42, 0.59 and 0.41 h; $T_{max}$ (time for maximum concentration)?D���D8.46, 6.34 and 2.66 h; $C_{max}$ (maximum concentration)?D���D0.30, 0.63 and 1.13 $\mu{g}/m\ell$.
