The aim of this study was to observe the chronic effects of cadmium and cadmium with zinc on the structure and histological changes in turkeys liver by means of transmission electronic microscopy and to examine whether concentrations of metals influence the activity of superoxide dismutase and lipid peroxidation in liver tissue. The results showed that cadmium induced morphological changes in the turkeys liver. The alteration in the activity of superoxide dismutase showed that the toxic effect of cadmium is not only in the high affinity for the thiol group, but also in ROS (reactive oxygen species) production.
