Using PIXE we determined concentrations of iron, nickel, copper, zinc, selenium, and rubidium in sera of 24 patients with acute myocardial infarction and 12 healthy controls. Rubidium*, selenium*, zinc**, nickel** and iron** concentrations are significantly (P<0.001*, P<0.01**) lower for patients than for control subjects. No significant difference is observed in the copper content. However, there is a slight increase in copper content in the patients so that the ratios Cu/Rb, Cu/Se, Cu/Zn, Cu/Ni, Cu/Fe are significantly higher for the patients than for the control subjects (P<0.01).
