| Abstract | The present study addressed the effect of microcirculatory blood flow on the ability of ciprofloxacin to penetrate soft tissues. Twelve healthy male volunteers were enrolled in an analyst-blinded, clinical pharmacokinetic study. A single intravenous dose of 200 mg of ciprofloxacin was administered over a period of approximately 20 min. The concentrations of ciprofloxacin were measured in plasma and in the warmed and contralateral nonwarmed lower extremities. The microdialysis technique was used for the assessment of unbound ciprofloxacin concentrations in subcutaneous adipose tissue. Microcirculatory blood flow was measured by use of laser Doppler flowmetry. Warming of the extremity resulted in an increase of microcirculatory blood flow by approximately three- to fourfold compared to that at the baseline (P < 0.05) in subcutaneous adipose tissue. The ratio of the maximum concentration (C max) of ciprofloxacin for the warmed thigh to the C max for the nonwarmed thigh was 2.10 ± 0.90 (mean ± standard deviation; P < 0.05). A combined in vivo pharmacokinetic (PK)-in vitro pharmacodynamic (PD) simulation based on tissue concentration data indicated that killing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853 and two clinical isolates) was more effective by about 2 log10 CFU/ml under the warmed conditions than under the nonwarmed conditions (P < 0.05). The improvement of microcirculatory blood flow due to the warming of the extremity was paralleled by an increased ability of ciprofloxacin to penetrate soft tissue. Subsequent PK-PD simulations based on tissue PK data indicated that this increase in tissue penetration was linked to an improved antimicrobial effect at the target site. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
