title: Studies on the antibiotic transfer into the bile of canines with different bile duct pressures.
abstract: There have been many studies on the transport of antibiotics into the bile; however, these studies have not taken the bile duct pressure into consideration. The bile duct pressure of the patient with acute obstructive cholangitis is high, and after drainage of the bile, the pressure is not always decreased to the normal range. We studied the effects of the bile duct pressure on the antibiotic (flomoxef sodium) transfer into the bile using beagles after creating the model of acute obstructive cholangitis. Our results showed that sufficient bile flow after drainage is important for the antibiotic transport, and, moreover, the bile acid concentration which may be related to the bilirubin concentration is also highly considerable.
