FZ contents in blood and tissues were determined by high performance liquid chromatography. The recoveries of the analytical method applied were 102, 102, 94 and 94% for serum, muscle, liver and kidney, respectively. A two-compartment pharmacokinetic model was found in serum through the mean concentrations of FZ, exhibiting a rapid, biphasic decline after an intravascular dose of 0.1 mg/kg at 23°C. The absorption and elimination half-lives of FZ in serum were 0.2 and 3.3 h, respectively. A one-compartment model could be observed from the serum concentration of FZ after an oral dose at 50 mg/kg; the elimination half-lives were found 1.4 and 0.8 h at 23 and 30°C, respectively. During a 24-hour bath period, variable temperatures gave significant effects on rate of absorption and elimination of FZ, while different doses showed different peak concentrations and integrated areas under the concentration-time curve. The bioavailabilities of FZ in the oral and bath applications were 0.4 and 26.4%, respectively. FZ was found mainly distributed in the serum and muscle, rather than in the liver or kidney. |
