The effects of florfenicol onreproductive performance have not been determined. Toxicity studies in dogs, rats, and micehave associated the use of florfenicol with testicular degeneration and atrophy. For catfish, adose related decrease in hematopoietic/lymphopoietic tissue may occur. The time requiredfor the hematopoietic/lymphopoietic tissues to regenerate was not evaluated.RESIDUE WARNING: Feeds containing PAQFLORTM (florfenicol) must be withdrawn 15 days prior to slaughter.IMPORTANT: This product has been evaluated in salmonid and catfish feeds and shouldbe used in feeds nutritionally similar to these evaluated feeds. Refer to the Freedom ofInformation Summary for details. Must be thoroughly mixed in feeds or surface-coated(top-coated) onto the feeds before use.Mixing Instructions:For incorporation into feed pellets: For making PAQFLORTM (florfenicol) Type C MedicatedFeed: a) PAQFLORTM (florfenicol) is added to other feed ingredients in the mixer priorto extrusion, b) the ingredients are mixed thoroughly to insure homogeneity, c) the mixtureis steam pelleted or extruded and pellets are dried, d) medicated feed pellets aremixed/coated with a predetermined amount of fish or vegetable oil, and e) at the completionof mixing, the product is transferred to a storage tank for packaging or transport.For surface-coating (top-coating) onto feed pellets: There are two methods for makingPAQFLORTM (florfenicol) Type C Medicated Feed by top-coating. Method 1:a) add a knownquantity of fish feed into a mixer, b) weigh out PAQFLORTM (florfenicol), c) mix PAQFLORTMwith feed pellets, d) medicated feed pellets are mixed/coated with a predetermined amountof fish or vegetable oil, and e) at the completion of mixing, the product is transferred to astorage tank for packaging or transport. Method 2: a) weigh out fish oil or vegetable oil intoa bucket, b) weigh out PAQFLORTM (florfenicol) and mix thoroughly with the oil in the bucket, c) add a known quantity of fish feed into a mixer, d) add the PAQFLORTM (florfenicol) and oilmixture to the feed in the mixer, slowly, while the mixer is running at low speed, e) at thecompletion of mixing, the product is transferred to a storage tank for packaging or transport.Example of PAQFLORTM (florfenicol) Inclusion Rates for Preparation of Type C Medicated FeedFeedingRateFlorfenicol Concentrationin Feed Amount of PAQFLORTM(florfenicol per Ton of Feed)Biomass of FishMedicated per Tonof Feed per 10-dayTreatment Period Grams/ton  lbs %Biomass Dose10 mg/kg Dose15 mg/kg Dose10 mg/kg Dose15 mg/kg lbs 0.5 1,816 2,724 8 12 40,0001 908  1,3624 6 20,000 2 454  6812 3 10,000 3 300  4501.32 1.98 6,666 5 182  2730.8 1.2 4,000 Feeding Directions: Feed as the sole ration for 10 consecutive days.
