Effect of cadmium on porphyrin biosynthesis-I

1. 1. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to Cd (50 ppm) administered in drinking water. 2. 2. The oral uptake of Cd did not alter δ-aminolevulinate and porphobilinogen urinary excretion nor the total content of daily porphyrin excretion in either urine or feces. 3. 3. A significant and consiste...
