General description

Nitroxinil is an anthelmintic agent, which is also an antiparasite. It is highly effective against Fasciola species and its mode of action involves uncoupling the oxidative phosphorylation in liver flukes and also reduces spermatogenesis in surviving flukes, resulting in fewer fertile eggs.

Application

Nitroxinil may be used as a reference standard in the determination of nitroxinil in veterinary active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing and bovine kidney using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

A method is described for the determination of nitroxynil residues in muscle, liver and kidney. The samples were extracted into diethyl ether and cleaned-up using a simple liquid-liquid extraction step. Any nitroxynil present was separated from interfering compounds by high-performance

The responses of cattle infected with Fasciola hepatica to treatment with nitroxynil or closantel were monitored by faecal egg counts and by ELISA assay of anti-fluke antibodies. A first trial with experimentally infected heifers showed an increase in anti-fluke antibody

Liver fluke infection (Fasciola hepatica) depresses the drug-metabolizing capacity of the hepatic mixed function oxidase (MFO) and glucuronosyltransferase (GT) enzyme systems, throughout a free radicals mediated lipid peroxidation process.

The binding of nitroxynil to total plasma proteins of cows, sheep and rabbits was characterized using equilibrium dialysis. The data indicate clearly that nitroxynil was highly (97-98%) bound to plasma protein of each animal. This linear binding would be due
