Hypocalcaemia in Experimental Cadmium Poisoning [PDF]
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 1966 Renal stones, hypercalciuria, and radiological bone changes have been found in workers exposed to compounds containing cadmium. In the present experiments the effect of cadmium chloride injections on the serum calcium levels of rabbits has been studied. Repeated subcutaneous injections over a period of two weeks at a dosage of up to 0·04 mmole/kg. body
