Abstract

THALLIUM salts administered per os or subcutaneously in the body disturb the equilibrium of mineral metabolism1, bring about lesions in the central and peripheral nervous system2, cause disturbances in the endocrine system3, have a deleterious effect upon the heart4, bring about disturbances in the digestive tract5 and kidneys6 and have unfavourable effects upon development and growth of animals7. Further, the daily administration of thallium for a longer period of time brings about in animals, especially in young ones, under-development of skin8, atrophy of hair follicles, hyperplasy and hypertrophy of sebaceous glands9, degenerative changes of hair10, and alopecy11.
