Veterinary antibiotics introduced into soil environment may change the composition and functioning of soil microbial communities and promote the spreading of antibiotic resistance. Actual risks depend on the antibiotic’s bioaccessibility and sequestration in soils, which may vary with contact time and soil properties. We elucidated changes in the horsebean plant’s bioaccessible oxytetracycline with increasing contact time in three different soils (cinnamon, red, and brown soil) and observed discrepancy in oxytetracycline dissipation using sequential extractions with H₂O-, 0.01 M CaCl₂-, and Mcllvaine- in the same three soils. The results showed lower quantities of oxytetracycline with increasing contact time over 20 days than the level in freshly contaminated soils but hugely discrepant quantities among the three tested soils. In addition, aging largely reduced dissipation of H₂O-, 0.01 M CaCl₂-, and Mcllvaine- extracted oxytetracycline in soils before planting. However, bioturbation helped increase the H₂O-, CaCl₂-, and Mcllvaine- extracted oxytetracyline from cinnamon and brown soils with aging. Lastly, correlation analysis indicated that bioaccessibility of oxytetracycline significantly correlates with the total of H₂O-, CaCl₂-, and Mcllvaine- extracted oxytetracycline (0.676**, p < 0.01) in soils, especially the H₂O- (0.789**, p < 0.01) and Mcllvaine- (0.686**, p < 0.01) extracted oxytetracycline with aging. Overall, this study provides some basic understanding of the aging effect on sequestration and bioaccessibility of veterinary antibiotics in soils.
