Abstract
Studies were made on levels of CP in tissues of yellowtails (Seriola quinqueraaiata) which received the drug once orally in three different ways of dosing as shown in Table 1. The experimental animals received no food after drug treatment.
Levels of CP in blood, liver and kidney were almost the same in groups A and C for the initial 2-6 hours after treatment despite the difference in expected dose between the two, and tissue levels of the drug in group B were lower than those in group A, though the expected doses in both the group were same. These results suggested that the rate of loss of feed was higher in feeds containing raw fish meat at a higher ratio.
