Essential microelement (copper, selenium, zinc) status according to age and sex in healthy cats
Original language description
Although domestic cats are one of the most popular companion animals, current knowledge on the fate of micronutrients in cats according to their age, sex, and health is very limited. In this study 72 whole blood and 54 plasma samples from cats of different ages and sex were collected at three veterinary offices in the Czech Republic, and the copper Cu, selenium Se, and zinc Zn concentrations were determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The results showed that Cu was significantly higher in both plasma and whole blood of males than in females, whereas no significant differences between males and females were found for Se and Zn. Similarly, no significant differences were recorded for any of the three elements according to age, although animals older than 7 years tended to have lower plasma concentrations of all three elements. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy HCM is one of the most prevalent diseases of domestic cats. The potential relationship between the essential microelement stat
