Abstract

The aim of the work was to be investigated the trace elements content in rat liver after the effect of chronic fasciolosis and diethylnitrosamine (DENA) intoxication. The Mo, Rb, Br and Cu contents were near to the controls or slightly increased. The highly increased quantity of Cu and low values of Zn, Fe and Co were established. The obtained results pointed that the combined action of Fasciola hepatica and DENA leaded to a specific mineral imbalance in the liver, which might take place in the pathogenesis of the interaction between experimental fasciolosis and chemical intoxication.
