Abstract
Serum Cu, Fe and Zn were estimated in 30 individuals complaining of moderate acne vulgartis, grade II. The results obtained were compared with those obtained from a normal control group. The results revealed changes in the Cu and Fe content of the sera, although they were statistically not significant. The Zn content showed no changes compared to the control group.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
