Morphological and Pathological Effects of Cadmium Ingestion on Pekin Ducks Exposed to Saline

Effect of in ovo injection of cadmium on chicken embryo heart

“…Statistical analysis revealed that differences between the group of embryos exposed to 1 µg of cadmium and the control and sham groups was significant at 0.05, while differences between the control and sham groups and the group injected with 5 µg of cadmium were significant at 0.01 (Table 2). Similar changes in heart weight in female Pekin ducks exposed to cadmium were observed by Hughes et al (2000). A decrease in relative heart weight in broiler chickens receiving dietary cadmium was also described by Bokori et al (1996).…”

Quantification of Heavy Metal Residues in Fecal Matter of Blue Rock Pigeon (Columba Livia) in Punjab

“…The kidney's significant Cd accumulation shows how important this organ is to the detoxification process and to the storage of extraneous materials. According to Lucia et al (2010), the kidney, followed by the liver, was the primary internal organ for Cd accumulation, whereas muscle and feathers were very minor locations.This toxic metal has been linked to kidney toxicity, intestinal lesions, disruption of calcium metabolism, decreased food intake, and thinned eggshells (Mayack et al;1981, Hughes et al, 2000Burger, 2008). When the Cd levels approached 20 ppm, numerous species of birds exhibited kidney impairment, according to studies by Battaglia et al (2005) and Toman et al (2005).…”

Antimicrobial Resistance of Salmonella spp. Isolates and Heavy Metal Traces from Rodent Meat Purchased from Roadside Markets, Central Thailand

“…There is also high concern in Thailand about the possible consequences of exposure to Cd in foods from animal sources (Chunhabundit, 2016), especially pig liver and kidneys, which are a popular and frequent source of animal proteins. Cd can induce changes in organs, and young animals are more susceptible than adults to Cd and Pb (Wren et al , 1995; Hughes et al , 2000; Romero et al , 2009). Samples collected from meat sales in Bangkok had Cd concentrations in the range of 0.28–3.68 mg/kg for pig livers and 0.38–10.82 mg/kg for pig kidneys (Chunhabundit, 2016), overlapping with the range of measurements for R. tanezumi kidneys in our study (0.02–2.20 mg/kg).…”
