Abstract

It is known that the intoxication with heavy metals and pesticides is most often unmedical poisoning. In contrast to other heavy metals, for example: mercury, lead, cadmium and zinc, toxic copper activity and the mechanism of its effect are not known enough and they are not yet explained. Because of that, the aim of this work was ( with acute dog intoxication with copper sulfate ) to contribute to better clearing of biochemical mechanism as a result of copper toxical effect and to make analysis of its tissue distribution. Researching was done on adult dogs, both sexes, different races and body mass of 14- 20 kg, who were given a 10% water solution of copper sulfate in the dosage of 33mg/b.m. divided into 5 equal doses. The analysis of biochemical blood structure took the following things: total proteins, albumins, globulins, total lipids, chole2+ sterol, glucoze, transaminase (AST,ALT), catalase, peroxidase, vitamin C, proteine SH, the contretation of Cu in the serum 2+ and the content of Cu in the tissues. The results are presented in the charts and graphic presentation. All these changes can be the important directions in an biological monitoring as a biochemical indication of copper pollution in the surroundings.
