This reduced accumulation of drug could contribute to closantel resistance by mechanisms such as reduced feeding, failure to dissociate the drug-albumin complex in the gut or increased efflux of closantel from resistant worms.

Closantel binds specifically to ovine serum albumin (K (a) of 9. 3x10 (6) M (-1)) at site I, the warfarin/phenylbutazone binding site of albumin Closantel also binds to invertebrate haemocyanin and haemolymph.

Study of the mode of action of the anti-parasitic 'hydrogenophore', closantel, revealed that mitochondria isolated from livers of untreated rats, 13 weeks after infection with Fasciola hepatica metacercariae, were uncoupled.
The lipid extractable product (s) binds to albumin and has a molecular weight between 500 and 1000 Daltons.
