Abstract: | A capillary electrophoretic (CE) method has been developed for the determination of ivermectin (CAS 70288-86-7), a new generation drug with antiparasitic activity, in pig and horse plasma. The method was statistically validated for its linearity, accuracy, precision and selectivity. The linear range was from 1 to 30 ng mL(-1) with correlation coefficients greater than 0.999. The limit of detection was 0.3 ng mL(-1), while the quantitative limit was 1 ng mL(-1), using a 0.5 mL sample size. The validated procedure was used to determination of pharmacokinetic parameters of ivermectin after ingestion of 0.1 mg for pigs and 0.2 mg dose per kg body weight for horses, respectively. Studies were performed on a group of eight pigs and six horses. There were no significant differences between pigs and horses in any of the estimated pharmacokinetic parameters. |
