Abstract
Different tissues from salmon treated with the quinolones oxolinic acid, flumequine, enrofloxacin and sarafloxacin were analysed in search of possible reservoirs of the drugs. Residues of oxolinic acid and flumequine seem to be especially bound to bone, enrofloxacin to skin, and sarafloxacin to both skin and bone. The results showed that residues of these drugs were present in the fish for prolonged periods after the end of treatment.
