Enrofloxacin (ENR) is the most commonly used antibiotic in crustacean farming in China. Diet supplementation with lactic acid (LA) may, however, affect the efficacy and safety of ENR-based drugs. The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of LA on drug residues and elimination of oral ENR in Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) and to determine ENR and gene expression levels of drug-metabolizing enzymes in the hepatopancreas. To this end, ENR was orally administered to the crabs at a dose of 10.0 mg kg−1 body weight on the eighth day after feeding diets supplemented with 0.3%LA. The results showed that ENR levels in the hepatopancreas were significantly different at 1 and 12 h between the ENR and ENR + 0.3% LA groups (P < 0.05). Lactic acid did not significantly affect the expression of CYP2A (phase I). However, the expressions of CYP3 (phase I) and GST (phase II) were significantly up-regulated by LA during the elimination process of ENR (6–24 h). At Tmax (1 h), the expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) was induced and expression of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) was inhibited by LA. Both of these enzymes were significantly inhibited during the elimination process of ENR. The results suggest that LA contributes to the elimination of ENR, and thus, enhances hepatopancreas biotransformation and anti-injury capacity in E. sinensis.
