“…Following PO administration, the T 1/2ka (0.13 hr) of ENR was shorter compared with 0.82 hr in snakehead fish (Fang et al., ), 1.394 hr in Korean catfish (Kim et al., ), 1.99 hr in turbot scophthalmus maximus (Liang et al., ) and 6.03 hr in seabass (Intorre et al., ); this indicated that ENR was rapidly absorbed in crucian carp after gavage. T 1/2β and AUC of ENR in crucian carp treated orally were 62.17 hr and 162.72 μg hr/ml, respectively; the values were considerably higher than those determined in Korean catfish (Kim et al., ), brown trout (Koc, Uney, Atamanalp, Tumer, & Kaban, ) and snakehead fish (Fang et al., ), while they were considerably lower than those of turbot scophthalmus maximus (Liang et al., ) and European eel (Fang, Yu, Cai, Zhou, & Huang, ). The reason for those differences is not clear.…”
