The majority of lameness in cattle originates in the foot. Currently, there are only limited treatment options available and source of significant economic loss also. The antimicrobial therapy should be based in bacterial sensitivity and pharmacokinetics features. The antimicrobial agent should have a broad antibacterial spectrum and achieve high concentrations in all tissues infected, particularly bone and synovial fluid. Intravenous regional antibiosis consists in place a rubber tourniquet around distal limb during up to 60 minutes and injects a water-soluble antibiotic into a digital vein. This method has been used to improve podal disease treatment. The purpose of this study was compare single-dose concentrations of crystalline tetracycline chloridrate, injected intravenous (IV) and intravenous regional (IVR) in bovine plasma, synovial fluid and milk from dairy cattle. Twelve milk production dairy cattle were used with various stages of digital dermatitis. Cows were randomly assign two groups of six animals. Group 1 will inject a single-dose of 10 mg/Kg crystalline tetracycline chloridrate IV and Group 2 with 1000 mg of crystalline tetracycline chloridrate IVR. Blood, synovial fluid and milk samples were take from jugular vein, left tarsal joint and mammary gland respectively at 0 (control), 22 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour and 22 minutes, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, 96 e 120 hours late injections. Tetracycline concentrations in samples were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Mean values tetracyclines plasma concentration in Group 1 were higher than Group 2. Synovial fluid and milk tetracycline concentration showed opposite comportment. Group 2 tetracycline concentration in synovial fluid was higher than Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) during 24 hours for the most frequent bacterias, which cause claw disease. Mean milk antibiotic concentration in Group 2 indicated that would be necessary withdraw up to 96 hours.
