Behavioral effects of aluminum ingestion on animal and human subjects (original) (raw)

This study investigates the behavioral effects of aluminum ingestion in both animal (rat) and human subjects, specifically examining how varying doses of aluminum chloride affect learning abilities, motor coordination, and visual temporal acuity. Results indicate that aluminum is absorbed and deposited in the brain, leading to impaired performance in behavioral tests and correlating high serum aluminum levels in elderly humans with cognitive and motor deficits. The findings suggest potential neurological risks and cognitive impairments associated with aluminum exposure.
