The toxic effect of cadmium on the animal body and its prevention

Abstract

The given literary data indicate that most scientific research in this direction, conducted both in our country and abroad, was conducted on laboratory animals. The study of biochemical mechanisms and toxic effects of cadmium toxicosis in poultry has not been sufficiently studied. Today, only a few works by domestic scientists are devoted to studying the effect of Cadmium on the bird’s body, but many aspects of this problem are still not clarified. There is no complete and clear scientific information about the effect of Cadmium on the protective systems of the bird’s body, namely on the immune and antioxidant systems. Based on the results of a comprehensive assessment of the state of the defense systems of chickens, it is possible to reveal new scientific aspects of cadmium toxicosis both theoretically and practically, which will make it possible to develop effective prevention methods and treatment for chickens under conditions of cadmium intoxication. Based on the analysis of literature data, the relevance of the chosen research direction and the need for further detailed study of chronic cadmium toxicosis in poultry have been confirmed.
