Abstract
This study was performed on 100 sheep, of which SO were Morkaraman and SO were Tuj, grown up in the pasture conditions in and around Kars. The serum zinc and copper values of the animals were analysed with Atomic Absorbtion Spectrophotometre. The serum zinc and copper values were respectively determined as; 40.56 +/- 5.6 mu g/dl, 80.10 +/- 7.49 mu g/dl in Morkaramans and, 38.72 +/- 5.32 mu g/dl, 75.04 +/- 6.58 mu g/dl in Tujs. There were no significant differences between the value of zinc and copper statistically.
