The increased creatinine indicates that Zn toxicity had a marked effect on kidney function, perhaps due to the action of water-born Zn on glomeruli filtration rate and/or pathological changes to the kidney resulting in dysfunction.
The increased uric acid and creatinine levels indicated that Zn toxicity had a marked effect on kidney function, perhaps due to the action of water-born Zn on glomeruli filtration rate and/or pathological changes to the kidney resulting in dysfunction.
