An investigation of the influence of dietary calcium (0.3% and 2.7) on the toxicity of dietary lead (50 mg LG 1 ) in the young male rats in a six week period indicated that as dietary calcium increased, the severity of lead toxicity decreased. Evidence include decreased lead concentration in kidney, liver, blood, brain and femurs, accompanied by a distribunces in essential metal (Ca, Zn, Cu, Fe and Mg) levels in kidney, liver brain, femur muscles and blood.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
