Abstract:
Objective :To evaluate the health effects of persistent organic pollutants(POPs)on body weight,food intake,internal organs,blood biochemistry,metabolic enzymes and antioxidant ingredients of rats.
Methods :Sixteen healthy Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into the experimental group exposed to 10 mL/kg mixture of POPs(10 ng/mL PCBs,5 ng/mL PBDEs,1 ng/mL PCDD/F)everyday for 28 days by gavage,and the control group exposed to the same volume of soybean oil in the same way. Body weight and food intake of the rats were recorded regularly;blood routine and biochemical indices were detected;liver,kidney,spleen and testicles(ovary)of the rats were weighed to calculate organ coefficients;metabolic enzymes and antioxidant ingredients were detected from livers of the rats.
Results :No obviously abnormal symptoms and no deaths were found in both groups. Compared to the control group,the weekly food intake in the experimental group increased more for there was an interaction between grouping and time(P< 0.05). The ratio of liver to body weight of male rats in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group [(3.87± 0.19)% vs.(3.53± 0.06)%,P< 0.05]. The haemoglobin and red blood cell of female rats in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group[(145.25± 6.18)g/L vs.(154.50± 4.20)g/L;(6.90± 0.14)× 1012/L vs.(7.39± 0.24)× 1012/L;both P< 0.05]. The glutathione-S-transferase(GST)of female rats in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group [(13.37± 1.05)U/mgprot vs.(9.43± 1.08)U/mgprot,P< 0.05]. The cytochrome P4501A1of rats in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group [female:(88.23± 5.81)ng/mgprot vs.(73.85± 5.86)ng/mgprot;male:(96.80± 13.32)ng/mgprot vs.( 72.20± 2.01)ng/mgprot;both P< 0.05].
Conclusion :After exposed to low dose of POPs,the cytochrome P4501A1 increased in all rats,the liver to body weight ratio increased in male rats,GST activity increased while red blood cell and haemoglobin decreased in female rats,which indicated possible body damages in rats.
