[Pharmacokinetic Study on Brucine in Different Administration Methods of Liposome in Rats]
Objective:
To compare the pharmacokinetic differences of brucine in rats after different administration methods of brucine liposome.
Methods:
To determine brucine in rat plasma at different points in time by HPLC after oral administration, intramuscular injection, subcutaneous injection and intravenous injection of brucine liposome, respectively. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and analyzed by DAS 3.0.
Results:
Compared with other groups, AUC(0 --> t) of subcutaneous injection were higher, C(max) were lower and MRT(0 --> 1), were significantly improved. The pharmacokinetics parameters and absolute bioavailability of brucine show that bioavailability in rats after different administration methods of brucine liposome is subcutaneous injection > intramuscular injection > oral administration.

The Doluisio method involves perfusing a prepared segment of a rat's small intestine with a solution of radiolabeled drug and a non-absorbable marker. This helps to differentiate between absorbed and non-absorbed drug concentrations. The intestinal segment is connected at both ends using tubing and syringes,...
