Levels Of Ast And Alt In Wistar Rats Treated With Heavy Metals Released From Atamonia And Pepsi Cans (=Tins=) As Cooking Pots During Feeding

Background: This study was done to estimate the serum levels of ALT and AST. Methods: Ninety adult males Wistar rats weighting about (160-220 gram each) were taken for the study. Serum ALT and AST levels were assessed by BioSystem, S.A, Costa Brava30, Barcelona. Spain2011). Results: On comparison of the controls and treated rats levels in serum samples, it was found that the difference was statistically significant.
