High pressure liquid chromatographic determination of carbadox and pyrantel tartrate in swine feed and supplements. 1983

D M Lowie, and R T Teague, and F E Quick, and C L Foster

A rapid yet reliable procedure for the simultaneous extraction and assay of carbadox and pyrantel tartrate is described. The feed is extracted with water-acetonitrile-methanol and cleaned up on a short alumina column. The eluant is separated by high pressure liquid chromatography and the compounds are detected at different wavelengths. The drugs of interest are well resolved in all feeds studied. The procedure has also been applied to a wide range of feeds which contained either one of the drugs or both in combination. No significant interferences were observed. Spiked sample recoveries were 97% for carbadox and 101% for pyrantel tartrate. Ruggedness test coefficients of variation were 2.0% for carbadox and 2.1% for pyrantel tartrate.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011715	Pyrantel	A depolarizing neuromuscular-blocking agent, that causes persistent nicotinic activation resulting in spastic paralysis of susceptible nematodes. It is a drug of second-choice after benzimidazoles for treatment of ascariasis, hookworm, and pinworm infections, being effective after a single dose. (From Smith and Reynard, Textbook of Pharmacology, 1992, p920)
D011717	Pyrantel Tartrate	Broad spectrum anthelmintic for livestock.	Banminth,Tartrate, Pyrantel
D011810	Quinoxalines		Quinoxaline
D002218	Carbadox	An antibacterial agent that has been used in veterinary practice for treating swine dysentery and enteritis and for promoting growth. However, its use has been prohibited in the UK following reports of carcinogenicity and mutagenicity. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p125)	Fortrigo,Getroxel,Mecadox

D005527	Food, Fortified	Any food that has been supplemented with essential NUTRIENTS either in quantities that are greater than those normally present, or which are not found in the food typically. Fortified food also includes food enriched by adding various nutrients to compensate for those removed by refinement or processing. (Modified from Segen, Dictionary of Modern Medicine, 1992).

Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).	Phacochoerus,Pigs,Suidae,Warthogs,Wart Hogs,Hog, Wart,Hogs, Wart,Wart Hog
