Abstract
The aim of the present work is to study the acute pulmonary toxicity of cadmium chloride (CdCl) and diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) each separately and in "# $ %& '(( ) "%& '**+(), - # . # $ /! .0 . cadmium content in the blood and lung were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. It was found that the blood cadmium concentration significantly '12 !),. . " However, with combined treatment the cadmium level in the lung showed significant '1 2 !) / 0 , # ! Histopathological examination of the lung showed inflammatory infiltrate of alveolar septa specially around blood vessels in DDTC treated animals. While that were exposed to CdCland to combined (CdCl+ DDTC) showed interstitial fibrosis and chronic inflammation. These changes were more severe and serious with combined exposure. Moreover the electr " 0" ! of combined exposure showed damage of type I pneumocytes, hyperplasia of type II pneumocytes with loss of microvilli. While the interstitial tissue revealed collagen bundle and chronic inflammatory cells.
