Metabolism of Different Zinc in Body and Its Effect on Cadmium Toxicity

Yang Zi-jun

Abstract

The present study was conducted to determine the distribution of zinc glucorate,zinc sulfate,zinc chloride and zinc acetate in mouse body and the effect on cadmium toxicity.The results showed that zinc concentration in liver,kidney and eyeball was the highest in mouse with zinc gloconate.Zinc toxicity was observed in mouse supplemented zinc acetate as 1×10 -4 mg/L.Zinc reduced cadmium concentration in tissues and its toxicity in mouse fed on zinc sulfate and cadmium sulfate at the same time.
