This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation with copper (Cu), iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) on contents of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) in tissues and blood of beef cattles. Twenty beef cattles aged 12 months were randomly divided into 2 groups with 10 cattles in each group. Cattles were fed a basal concentrate (control group) and the basal concentrate supplemented with 20 mg Cu, 200 mg Fe and Zn 200 mg (experimental group), respectively. Roughage was fed ad libitum. The experiment lasted for 150 d. Feed intake of cattles were calculated by group per day; body weight was recorded and blood sample was collected every 30 d, at the end of the experiment, all cattles were slaughtered to collect samples of kidney, liver, heart, pancreas, spleen, rumen, large intestine and dorsal muscles, and the contents of Pb and Zn in tissues and blood were determined. The results showed as follows: supplementation of Cu, Fe and Zn in concentrate significantly increased average daily gain by 12.50% (P<0.01), but significantly decreased feed to gain by 15.68% (P<0.01); there was a significant increase in Pb content in pancreas and rumen (P<0.01), and a significant decrease in that in spleen and blood (P<0.05), but Pb content in other tissues was not changed significantly (P>0.05), and Pb mainly accumulated in the rumen; Cd contents in kidney, liver, spleen, rumen and large intestine were all significantly increased (P<0.01), but Cd content in heart was significantly decreased (P<0.01), and Cd mainly accumulated in the kidney. The results indicate that dietary supplementation with Cu, Fe and Zn can improve growth performance of beef cattles, but can not effectively reduce the accumulation of Pb and Cd in tissues and muscles.
