| 1 | Effect of lead acetate toxicity on experimental male albino rat显示文摘Objective:To evaluate the effect of different doses of lead acetate(1/20,1/40 and 1/60 of LD_(50))on body weight gain,blood picture,plasma prolein profile and the function of liver,kidney and thyroid gland.Methods:Male albino rats were divided into four groups,the first group represented the health control animals,while the second,third and fourth groups were ingested orally with sub lethal doses of load acetate(1/20,1/40 and 1/60)of the oral LD_(50),respectively.One dose was ingested every two days during the experimental period(14 weeks)including the adaptation time.Blood was collected and used for all analysis.Results:The results showed that,the ingestion of Pb^(2+)induced significant stimulation in glutamic-pyruvic transaminase(ALT)and glutamic-oxalacetic transaminease(AST)activity.Also,total soluble protein and albumin contents of plasma were significantly decreased,while the content of globulin was changed by the Pb^(2+)treatments.The cholinesteiase activity was inhibited,but the activities of alkaline and acid phosphates and lactate dehydrogenase were stimulated,while plasma glucose level was elevated as a result of lead acetate intoxication.In case of blood picture,Pb^(2+)ingestion reduced the contents of hemoglobin and RBCs count of intoxicated rat's blood and the plasma levels of T3,T4 and blood WBCs count were decreased.Conclusions:It can be concluded that lead acetate has harmful effect on experimental male albino rats.Therefore,the present work advises people to prevent exposure to the lead compound to avoid injurious hazard risk. | Nabil M Ibrahim Esam A Eweis Hossam S El-Beltagi Yasmin E Abdel-Mobdy | 2012 | Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine2012，2，1： | 1 |
