[The residue behavior of the furazolidone metabolite 3-(4-cyano-2-oxobutylideneamino)-2-oxazolidone in trout]
Abstract
A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-method for the determination of furazolidone (FZ) and its open-chain cyano-derivative 3-(4-cyano-2-oxobutylideneamino)-2-oxazolidone (M1) in trout is described. Only during the medication period residues of FZ and M1 were detected in the muscle and liver of the trout, which were treated with food containing FZ over a period of 7 days. After the beginning of the withdrawal period, the concentration of FZ and M1 were found to be under the limits of detection.
