A comparative study of the pharmacokinetics of isometamidium chloride in sheep and goats

Small Ruminant Research, 2004
Abstract A study was carried out to determine and compare the pharmacokinetics of isometamidium in groups of six animals each of sheep and goats treated by intramuscular injection with isometamidium chloride (Samorin ® , Rhone Merieux, Lyon, France) at 0.5 mg/kg body weight.

A Preliminary Study on the Absorption of Isometamidium Chloride (Samorin) in the Stomach and Small Intestine of Rat

Journal of Chemotherapy, 1993
The levels of absorption of isometamidium chloride (Samorin) in the stomach and intestine of the rat were determined because of problems usually associated with parenteral administration of the drug. The in situ loop method and in situ recirculation technique were used to determine the absorption of the drug in the stomach and intestine respectively ...

The transmissibility of Trypanosoma congolense seems to be associated with its level of resistance to isometamidium chloride

Veterinary Parasitology, 2006
In large parts of Africa the control of livestock trypanosomiasis relies on the use of trypanocidal drugs. Resistance against the available compounds is developing rapidly in the trypanosome population. The effect of the development of drug resistance on the fitness of the trypanosome is not well known.

Comparison of isometamidium chloride and homidium bromide as prophylactic drugs for trypanosomiasis in cattle at Nguruman, Kenya

Acta Tropica, 1995
The duration of prophylaxis provided by isometamidium chloride and homidium bromide, each at a dose rate of 1 mg kg-1 bodyweight, was compared in a 12-month field trial involving groups of 30 zebu cattle in south-west Kenya. The trial took place between February 1990 and February 1991 and included several months of high trypanosome challenge. Cattle in

Absence of correlation between karyotype profiles of Trypanosoma congolense and resistance to isometamidium chloride

Veterinary Parasitology, 2007
Chromosome profiles of 10 Trypanosoma (T.) congolense populations with different isometamidium sensitivities were compared using the pulsed field gel electrophoresis technique. The aim was to elucidate whether there was a karyotype pattern specific to eight isometamidium resistant phenotypes.

Acute toxicity of samorin (Isometamidium chloride) in rabbits

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Comparative Pharmacology, 1984
Oral administration of samorin (isometamidium chloride) to rabbits in single oral doses of 6.25, 12.5, 25 and 50 mg/kg produced signs of toxicity which were dose-dependent. These were restlessness, hyperaesthesia, tremors, convulsions and finally death.

Preliminary pharmacokinetic study of isometamidium chloride in camels

Research in Veterinary Science, 1984
Isometamidium chloride was given to camels at a single intravenous dose rate of 0.5 or 1 mg kg-1 and the plasma drug concentration measured spectrophotometrically at frequent intervals for up to 48 hours. Isometamidium chloride concentrations were found to be 9.8 +/- 0.2 and 8.7 +/- 0.2 micrograms ml-1 half an hour after treatment with 1 and 0.5 mg kg ...

Susceptibility of dyskinetoplastic Trypanosoma evansi and T. equiperdum to isometamidium chloride

Parasitology Research, 1997
Isometamidium chloride (ISM) is an effective trypanocide with curative and prophylactive activity in husbandry animals. The mode of action of ISM against pathogenic trypanosomes is not fully understood, but there is evidence in the literature that kinetoplastic topoisomerase type II is selectively inhibited by the drug.
