Abstract
Trace elements examining of basic biological components in the human and animal body is essential due to the increase and the decrease in them may lead to toxicity. In this study, 32 patients who were diagnosed with lung cancer in 32 healthy volunteers were compared. Serum level concentrations of Fe trace elements were measured using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. There was a statistical significant difference in nickel serum levels when comparing the mean of healthy with patient concentration, where the value of P (0.05 > p) was found. The level of serum components in the patient may be important in causing lung cancer.
Highlights
Cancer consider the main reason of the most deaths among people worldwide, lung cancer accounts for 16%, according to the World Health Organization. which is the most common solid tumor diagnosed [1]
Several studies have shown that the mineral compounds of these elements act as an antiestrogen activator, and further confirm the relationship between element compounds and the same elements that maybe causes risk of lung cancer where lead, cadmium and arsenic are a source of oxidative stress related to lung cancer[2,3,4]
Some trace minerals act as catalysts that increase the oxidative damage of biological molecules and DNA, which is known to be carcinogenic and capable of producing toxic effects such as (Reactive oxygen species) ROS formation and [5].The main objective of this study is to try to find a relationship between cancers such as lung cancer, and the percentages of concentrations of influencing factors using an atomic absorption device and whether the association between increase or decrease its concentrations is taken into account in medical treatments to prevent cancer expansion as much as possible[6,7]

We try to find what happens if there is a defect in the trace elements and how that will effects the blood cells and body organs such as tissues and bones marrow, lymph nodes and whether
