The study was conducted to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of enrofloxacin following a single oral gavage (10 mg kg(-1)) in mud crab, Scylla serrata, at water temperatures of 19 and 26 degrees C. Enrofloxacin concentration in haemolymph was determined using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). A multiple and repeated haemolymph sampling from the articular cavity of crab periopods was developed. The haemolymph of an individual crab was successfully sampled up to 11 times from the articular cavity. The profile of haemolymph enrofloxacin concentration of an individual crab versus time was thus achieved. The mean haemolymph enrofloxacin concentration versus time was described by a two-compartment model with first-order absorption at two water temperatures. The peak concentrations of haemolymph enrofloxacin at 19 and 26 degrees C were 7.26 and 11.03 mug mL(-1), at 6 and 2 h, respectively. The absorption and distribution half-life time ( and t(1/2alpha)) at 19 degrees C were 3.7 and 4.5 h, respectively, which were markedly larger than the corresponding values (1.1 and 1.5 h) at 26 degrees C; the elimination half-life time (t(1/2beta)) was 79.1 and 56.5 h at 19 and 26 degrees C, respectively. The area under curve (AUC), total body clearance (Cl) and mean residence time (MRT(0-infinity)) at 19 degrees C were 636.0 mg L(-1) h, 0.016 L h(-1) kg(-1) and 102.5 h, respectively; the corresponding values at 26 degrees C were 583.4 mg L(-1) h, 0.018 L h(-1) kg(-1)and 63.7 h. These results indicate that enrofloxacin is absorbed and eliminated more rapidly in mud crab at 26 degrees C than at 19 degrees C.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is a typical two-dimensional material, which is widely used in many fields because of its excellent electrical and optical properties. In recent years, the high-quality growth of MoS2 has attracted more and more attention from researchers. Many studies have reported a two-step method for the production of MoS2 by pre-deposition of molybdenum (Mo) source and then vulcanization, which is cumbersome and time-consuming, and the preparation temperature is mostly above 800 °C, increasing energy consumption and experimental risk. In this paper, S source and Mo source can be distinguished by double temperature zone tube furnace to prepare MoS2 material in one-step method. The temperatures of S and Mo sources were designed separately, and the effect of each temperature on the quality of MoS2 was investigated. And the monolayer MoS2 with high crystalline quality was obtained at a S source temperature of 165 °C and a Mo source temperature of 680 °C. We produce MoS2 in one-step method at low temperature, which provides a reference for the synthesis of high-quality monolayer MoS2. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
