Abstract
Experiments were conducted with dwarf goats to investigate effects of 160 days of oral application of high doses of bentonite on the trace element status (Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn). High levels of iron compounds in bentonite batches caused intensified incorporation of these elements into liver and kidney of dwarf goat. Copper and zinc incorporations were reduced but manganese incorporation was increased by oral application of bentonite.
