Abstract
Rats poisoned with cadmium acetate during 12 weeks, at a dose of 50 mg/dm3 given in drinking water, were treated with oxygen-ozone mixture as intraperitoneal injection during the last 10 days of the experiment, at a daily dose of 1 cm3 and ozone concentration 40 micrograms/cm3. The mixture was made of medical oxygen with a Bioozon U type apparatus produced by B. Prochazka GmbH, Germany, Reutlingen. Control groups included animals treated with the above mixture with no cadmium, and rats poisoned with cadmium, with no oxygen-ozone treatment. Liver and cardiac muscle were examined in TEM Philips EM 301. Morphological traits of a protective of the mixture against cadmium-poisoning were observed in both those organs. This was expressed as weaker destructive changes within the endoplasmic reticulum, basal cytoplasm and lysosome of the hepatocytes, and additionally as a stabilization of contractile apparatus fibres in the heart myocytes.
