Biochemical and histopathological responses of the Swiss albino mice treated with uranyl nitrate

6th World Congress on Biotechnology

Abstract
Uranium is a heavy metal, well known nephrotoxicant and its toxicity varies with dose, time of exposure and form of uranium. The present study shows the kidney damage induced by a single dose of uranyl nitrate at different time intervals; the study also shows recovery of mice after the uranyl nitrate insult. Animals were dosed and sacrificed after 1, 3, 5, 14, 28 days of administration. Maximum tubular damage was showed after 3 days of treatment with uranyl nitrate, it is considered as peak and the biochemical parameters such as BUN and creatinine values were also significantly increased in time and dose dependant manner. Both histopathological and biochemical alterations with respect to control, 1, 3, 5, 14, 28 days of post dosing with uranyl nitrate were evaluated.
