The microspheres were prepared by optimizing several key parameters such as PLGA molecular weight, drug/polymer ratio, internal water volume and ethyl acetate. Drug loading efficiency, stability, in vitro release and tissue distribution in mouse were evaluated. The average particle size of the microspheres was 27.84 μm. The drug loading efficiency was 64.57%. The in vitro release of cefquinome from microspheres after 4 h was about 40% compared with over 90% for the drug alone. The concentration of cefquinome in lung reached 25 μg/g 0.25 h after injection, and kept at 10 μg/g 4 h after injection. However, the concentration of cefquinome was very low in other organs even 0.25 h after injection. In conclusion, Cefquinome-loaded PLGA microspheres are compatible as an effective lung-targeting drug delivery system and have a good sustained release efficacy.展开更多

Residue depletion of cefquinome in milk administrated at one quarter following three consecutive infusions at the same dose were also carried out. Cefquinome concentrations in plasma and milk were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method. A non-compartmental analysis was used to obtain the pharmacokinetic parameters of cefquinome. Following the single treatment, cefquinome wasn’t detected in any of the plasma samples. The concentration of cefquinome in milk reached peaked values (Cmax) of (599.00±322.00) μg mL-1 at 2 h after administration (Tmax), elimination half-life (t1/2λz) was (4.63±0.26) h, area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-∞) was (4 890.19±1 906.98) μg mL-1 h, and mean residence time (MRT) was (6.03±2.27) h. In residue depletion study, cefquinome concentrations in 5 out of 6 milk samples at 72 h were lower than the maximum residue limit ifxed by the European regulatory agency (20μg kg-1 for cefquinome) and cefquinome still could be detected in milk of treated quarters at 120 h post-treatment. The maximum concentration (Cmax) of cefquinome in milk from treated quarters was (486.50±262.92) μg mL-1 and arrived at 6 h after administration (Tmax), elimination half-life (t1/2λz) was (6.30±0.76) h, area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-∞) was (44 747.79±11 434.43) μg mL-1 h, and mean residence time (MRT) was (10.09±1.40) h. This study showed that cefquinome has the feature of poor penetration into blood and was eliminated quickly from milk in lactating cows after intramammary administration.展开更多

The solubilities of cefquinome sulfate in five pure solvents (methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol, acetic acid and water) from 277.15 to 305.15 K and in a binary acetone-water solvent from 278.15 to 293.15 K were measured at atmospheric pressure. The pure-solvent solubility data was correlated to the modified Apelblat and Van't Hoff equations whereas the mixed-solvent system data was correlated to the modified Apelblat, Van't Hoff, CNIBS/R-K and Jouy- ban-Acree models. It was found that the solubilities of cefquinome sulfate in all tested solvents decreased with the increasing of temperature. In addition, the thermodynamic properties of the dissolution processes, including standard Gibbs free energy, enthalpy and entropy changes, were calculated using the Van't Hoff equation. It was found that the dissolution of cefquinome sulfate is exothermic.展开更多
