Backgroud: The present study aimed to evaluate Heavy metals are persistent and uninterrupted ecological pollutants that are capable to cause numerous dysfunctions in target tissues of exposed animals as well as humans. Metallic components including Cadmium (Cd) arrive into the animal body then become stored mainly in the liver, kidney etc.
Methods: Despite the study of several years, no reports are available about actual medication for prolonged toxicity of heavy metals including Cd. Cd is one of the most common heavy metals that possess toxicological effects of numerous tissues of animal systems.
Result: In the present study an attempt was made to monitor the impact of Cd - toxicity in the tissues of wistar rats. BMR and TR potentials were found to be significantly (P < 0.05) inhibited, Tissue .. View More»
