This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of diet with organic copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) which supplemented at the amount of 50% of recommendation levels for these minerals instead of its inorganic forms on live weight gain, accumulation levels of minerals in serum and hair and elimination levels of these minerals in faeces of goat kids. Kids were allocated equally two groups offered rations supplemented with organic (treatment, n=12) and inorganic (control, n=12) copper and zinc. It was offered 3.5 mg/kg DM copper chelate (2-hydroxy–4-methylthiobutyrate) and 10 mg/kg DM zinc chelate (2-hydroxy–4-methylthiobutyrate) to organic group. Seven mg/kg DM copper sulphate and 20 mg/kg DM zinc sulphate were supplemented to the ration of inorganic group kids. At the end of the experiment, average values of serum copper and zinc and hair copper and zinc were found higher than that of the beginning of the experiment in both groups. The differences between groups with regard to the mean values of live body weight, serum copper and zinc, hair copper and zinc were not statistically significant. The averages values of serum copper and zinc and hair copper in the organic group and the average value of the hair zinc level in the inorganic group were found to be numerically higher than that of another group. The averages copper and zinc levels in the faeces of the organic group were lower than that of the inorganic group. As a conclusion, although the supplementation of organic copper and zinc to the kid rations at level of 50% less than recommended levels it was determined that organic group had have similar growth performances, serum and hair values to that of the inorganic group. These values showed that organic minerals were better absorbed than inorganic ones. Furthermore, lower levels of faecal copper and faecal zinc values in the organic mineral group suggested that wastes of these minerals were scattered to the environment in lesser amounts and thus lead to lesser pollution.

Background: Tuberculosis is a major public health concern throughout the world including Bangladesh. The prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) is increasing day by day. Around one-third of world population is infected with M. tuberculosis. Still pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) remains one of the important causes of mortality throughout the world with economic burden. Objective: To evaluate levels of the serum zinc and serum copper in smear positive PTB patients before starting Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course (DOTs) therapy. Methods: This was a cross-sectional type of observational study. A total of 100 subjects were included in this study. Among them 50 were smear positive PTB patients denoted as case group and 50 were apparently healthy individuals denoted as control group. Biochemical tests were carried out in the department of biochemistry of Mymensingh Medical College, Mymensingh. All the statistical analyses were performed by using SPSS version 21. Results were evaluated by using Student’s t-test. Results: After careful evaluation there was significant decrease in serum zinc level along with significant increase in serum copper level among the case group when compared with the control group. The mean values of serum zinc level were 93.96±10.04 μg/dl and 72.84±7.73 μg/dl in control and case group respectively. Serum zinc level decreased significantly (p <0.001) in PTB patients. The mean values of serum copper were 111.81±21.26 μg/dl and 125.99±27.93 μg/dl in control and case group respectively. There was significant (p <0.001) rise of serum copper level in PTB patients.

This study investigated the association of copper and zinc levels in the serum or urine of patients living in northeast China, with either prediabetes or diabetes. From January 2010 to October 2011, patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D,n=25), type 2 diabetes (T2D,n=137), impaired fasting glucose (IFG,n=12) or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT,n=15), and age/gender matched controls (n=50) were enrolled. In the T2D group, there were 24 patients with nephropathy, 34 with retinopathy, and 50 with peripheral neuropathy. Serum copper levels were significantly higher in IFG, IGT, and T2D groups. Serum zinc level was dramatically lower, and urinary zinc level was significantly higher in both T1D and T2D subjects compared with controls. The serum zinc/copper ratio was significantly lower in all the patients with IFG, ITG, T1D, and T2D. The serum copper level was positively associated with HbA1c in T2D subjects. Simvastatin treatment in T2D patients had no significant effect on serum and urinary copper and zinc. These results suggest the need for further studies of the potential impact of the imbalanced serum copper and zinc levels on metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and diabetic complications.

Background: Preeclampsia is multisystem disorder. Despite its prevalence and severity, the pathophysiology of this multisystem disorder is poorly understood. In concern regarding the increasing number of preeclamptic cases and lack of data about the levels of trace elements in preeclampsia, a case-control study was conducted with aim to determine the trace elements like serum total copper and serum total zinc in preeclampsia. Aims: To estimate alterations in serum copper and serum zinc in preeclampsia and to compare them with normal pregnant women. Study Design: This is a case control study, carried out in the Department of Biochemistry, MIMER Medical College, Talegaon Dabhade, Pune. Methods: The present study consisted of 120 study participants. These were divided into two groups. Group I - normal pregnant women as control (n=60) and Group II - preeclamptic group (n=60). The serum levels of copper and zinc were determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP- AES) technique at IIT Mumbai. Results: Analysis revealed that mean values of total serum copper and total serum zinc were 196.20 ± 25.9 and 77.15 ± 14.5 (µg/dl) respectively in control group. In preeclamptic group, the mean values of copper and zinc were 213.13± 38.6 and 76.23 ± 13.13 (µg/dl) respectively. Copper was significantly increased in preeclamptic group, while non-significant reduction in levels of zinc levels was observed when compared to control group. Conclusion: In the present study, significantly high serum copper was observed in preeclamptic patients. Presence of high copper levels may be related factor in the etiopathogenesis of preeclampsia. Estimation of trace elements like copper and zinc may help clinicians in early diagnosis and minimizing or delaying complications of preeclampsia, hence preventing harm to both mother & fetus.

The Status

Pre-eclampsia is a multisystem and multifactorial disease that affects both mother and fetus by endothelial dysfunction and intrauterine growth retardation. It is thought that pre-eclampsia is associated with an imbalance of increased lipid peroxides and decreased antioxidants. Dietary deficiency or excess of copper, zinc or other micronutrients play important role in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia because nutrients can modulate oxidative stress by increasing or decreasing free radicals or antioxidants and providing substrates for formation of free radicals.This study was carried out in the Department of Biochemistry, Sylhet MAG Osmani Medical College during the period from July 2014 to June 2015 to evaluate the status of serum copper and zinc in pre-eclamptic patients. For this study 85 age-matched women were selected and grouped as 30 pre-eclamptic patients, 27 normal pregnant and 28 nonpregnant women. serum copper and zinc level were measured in all study subjects by AAS. Data were analyzed with the help of SPSS version 17.0. Mean (±SD) level of serum copper and zinc were 1.43±0.49 mg/l and 2.43±2.89 mg/l in pre-eclamptics, while in normal pregnant women the levels were 1.51±0.47 mg/l and 2.87±2.23 mg/l and in non-pregnant women these were 0.85±0.28 mg/l and 3.70±2.61 mg/l respectively. Serum copper significantly increased in pre-eclamptics and normal pregnant women when compared with that of non-pregnant women [F (2, 82) =19.763; p<0.001], but there was no significant difference between pre-eclamptic and normal pregnant group. No significant difference of serum zinc among three groups were observed [F (2, 82) =1.774; p=0.176]. The study showed increased trend of serum copper and decreased trend of serum zinc in pregnancy (both preeclampsia and without pre-eclampsia) compared with non-pregnant women, and both were reduced in pre-eclampsia compared to normal pregnancy. As our study did not show any significant difference in copper and zinc level in pre-eclamptics and normal pregnant women hence it can be concluded that there may not be any significant association of serum copper and zinc level with pre-eclampsia.Bangladesh J Med Biochem 2015; 8(2): 49-54

The article shows the state of Ukrainian Whiteheaded cattle, which includes distribution of cattle, the number of animals belonging to respective bloodlines, evaluation of young animals with live weight in the process of growing and milk production of cows during the first lactation. It reflects the historic development of the breed when it was colonism whiteheaded cattle, which turned into the original breed, undergone a significant expansion in livestock and increase of productivity, decreased in the number, was as basis for creation of Ukrainian Black-and-White dairy breed and now bred only in one breeding farm. Visual estimation of animal exterior showed good development of cows and calves and their belonging to the dairy type. In the vast majority the cows of the herd have a black suit, a white head with " glasses" around the eyes, white belly, udder, lower legs and brush of the tail. The youngsters aren’t consolidated by the exterior, and among them there are animals which are not typical for Ukrainian Whiteheaded breed. The young animals have some lag in live weight behind the breed standard [12] to 7 months’ age with exceeding of this trait in certain periods quite significantly in the future. It was established that selection of heifers on live weight will be effective at the early age (1-5 months), given the coefficient of variation of live weight – 22,63-30,21% and will not have a significant influence in the future. Milk yields of first-calf heifers vary considerably depending on the origin. The milk yield of first-calf heifers in the herd was 4238,5 kg on average, the heifers belonging to Mart 171 and Ozon 417 bloodlines had the best milk performance – 4483,1 and 4254,9 kg accordingly. The most aligned milk yield during the first lactation was in the cows belonging to Ozon 417 bloodline, the limits of the trait are 4128,5-4327,4 kg with the average value by the line 4254,9 kg. In contrast, the first-calf heifers of Ryezvyi 33 bloodline with average milk yield 4048,9 kg had limits of the trait 2199,3-4736,1 kg. Even greater range in cows’ milk yield during the first lactation R= 4939 kg (limits 1687 – 6626 kg) is characterized for the herd in general, it shows, on the one hand, the possibility of qualitative improvement of cows’ productivity due to selection on the investigated trait and lack of selection in the herd on the other hand. It was established that daughters of bull Chardash belonging to Ryezvyi 33 bloodline produced 4736,1 kg of milk for 305 days of the first lactation with fat content 3,6%, whereas Zlak’s descendants of the same line were characterized by the lowest milk yield for the first completed lactation – 2199,3 kg with fat content 3,7% and the average value by the line – 4048,9 kg of milk, fat content 3,6%. Similar variability of first-calf heifers’ milk yields, depending on the origin, is typical for other bloodlines of Ukrainian Whiteheaded breed. To increase milk productivity of Ukrainian Whiteheaded cows is recommended to repeat successful combinations of parental forms, and to preserve the breed – to carry out an objective assessment of animals by a range of traits, given the efficiency of selection of heifers on live weight at early age.
