Nickel toxicity and interactions of nickel with zinc, copper and lead were studied in growing chicks fed supplement diet. Feed intake and growth rate of the chick were reduced by 250 mg nickel as a sulfate salt per kg of feed. The toxicity of nickel was decreased by zinc or copper supplementation, but not lead. High nickel feed increased nickel level in kidney and decreased zinc levels in tibia and plasma. However, low zinc levels in tibia and in plasma were reversed by zinc supplementation. Hemoglobin, packed cell volume, and aortic elastin content were increased in chicks fed nickel
