“…This fact justifies the reduced appetite, emaciation, unsteady gait of sheep suffering from serum Cu 2+ decrease. This finding goes with the postulate of Wu et al (2020) who assured the decreased performance, appetite, anemia and economic losses due to hypocupermia. The deficiency of Cu 2+ may be attributed to high concentration of other elements (Thorndyke et al, 2021) as molybdenum (MO) and sulfur (S) in the soil which lead to formation of MO-Cu 2+ or S-Cu 2+ complex which are poorly absorbed via the intestine.…”

“…This finding assures this study notice in Paris locality. In this respect, some authors (Wu et al, 2020) stated that, hypocupermia not only depends on the total Cu 2+ contents but also it is greatly dependent on other factors affecting absorption and utilization so, Cu 2+ deficiency has negative impact (Table 3).…”

“…Se deficiency is usually associated with several abnormalities, including placenta retention, impaired fertility, neonatal weakness, and abortion [ 10 ]. Acting as an enzymatic and protein cofactor, copper (Cu) plays important roles in the immune system [ 11 ]. Iron (Fe) is required for cellular growth, oxygen binding and transportation, and electron transfer [ 12 ].…”

Background and Aim: The analysis of hematological and biochemical parameters is widely used in assessing animal health status. Limited information is available on trace element levels and their association with hematological and biochemical parameters in Omani goats suffering from emaciation. Therefore, the current study aimed to determine the levels of some trace elements in emaciated Omani goats and their relationship with hematological and biochemical parameters. Materials and Methods: Goats suffering from emaciation and muscular dystrophy (n=18) were compared with healthy goats (n=12). Venous blood samples for the hematological, biochemical, and trace element analysis were collected from the jugular vein. Results: Emaciated goats showed significantly lower white blood cell, lymphocyte, and red blood cell counts than the healthy goats. In contrast, the percentages of monocytes and eosinophils were higher in emaciated goats than in healthy ones. In addition, emaciated goats showed higher levels of biochemical parameters alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatine kinase, and total bilirubin but lower levels of albumin than the healthy goats. The results of trace element analysis revealed lower concentrations of zinc, iron, and selenium in serum from emaciated goats than in serum from healthy goats. Conclusion: This study identified significant differences in the serum levels of some trace elements and hematological and biochemical parameters between healthy and emaciated Omani goats. The identified differences represent valuable diagnostic biomarkers for the evaluation of the health status of Omani goats.

“…Supplementing 125 mg/kg of Cu in poultry diets can increase growth; Cu oxidate nanoparticles (CuO–NPs) are also able to kill Salmonella in the gastrointestinal tract of poultry. , Besides, Cu is an essential element for rumen microorganisms in ruminants; dietary Cu sulfate improves milk performance and nutrients digestion and enhances ruminal fermentation at 10 mg/kg . Copper is also necessary for maintaining the minerals level and blood physiology and biochemistry in sheep, thus improving immunity functions and antioxidant ability. , Copper processing methods also impact its absorption efficiency. For example, supplementation of 65 mg/kg hot-melt extrusion Cu sulfate can replace 125 mg/kg conventional Cu sulfate, leading to a greater average daily gain in weanling pigs …”

The extensive use of high-concentration copper (Cu) in feed additives, fertilizers, pesticides, and nanoparticles (NPs) inevitably causes significant pollution in the ecological environment. This type of chain pollution begins with animal husbandry: first, Cu accumulation in animals poisons them; second, high Cu enters the soil and water sources with the feces and urine to cause toxicity, which may further lead to crop and plant pollution; third, this process ultimately endangers human health through consumption of livestock products, aquatic foods, plants, and even drinking water. High Cu potentially alters the antibiotic resistance of soil and water sources and further aggravates human disease risks. Thus, it is necessary to formulate reasonable Cu emission regulations because the benefits of Cu for livestock and plants cannot be ignored. The present review evaluates the potential hazards and benefits of high Cu in livestock, the environment, the plant industry, and human health. We also discuss aspects related to bacterial and fungal resistance and homeostasis and perspectives on the application of Cu−NPs and microbial high-Cu removal technology to reduce the spread of toxicity risks to humans.
