Popis: Pharmacokinetics of cefquinome was studied in febrile female goats following its intravenous (IV) administration at the dose rate of 2 mg/kg body weight. The fever was induced by administration of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (lμg/kg body weight). Cefquinome concentration in plasma of goats was estimated using HPLC. The drug was detected upto 24 h in febrile goats. The disposition kinetics of the drug was described by twocompartment open model. PK-PD indices; AUC24h/MIC, Cmax/MIC, T>MIC were calculated by integrating in-vivo PK data with earlier generated MIC data against Pasteurella (P.) multocida. A favourable PK and PK-PD indices suggested that the dose of 2 mg/kg/24 h of cefquinome would be effective clinically to treat goats affected with P. multocida infections.
