Abstract

Background: Toxic fumes generating during soldering contains various contaminants. The aim of the study was to determine toxic effects of SOLDER FUMES in thickness of semniferous tubule in RAT.Materials and Methods: 48 male adult RATs were randomly divided into experimental (n=30) and control (n=18) groups. Based on exposure time, each group was further divided into three subgroups such as 2, 4 and 6 weeks. The concentrations of toxic fumes were measured by standard method. RATs of experimental group were exposed to SOLDER FUMES for 1 hour/day. According to time table RATs of experimental and control subgroups were killed. After fixation of TESTIS, paraffin sections were stained by Hematoxylin & Eosin. The thicknesses of GERMINAL EPITHELIUM were measured and data were analyzed by SPSS software version 17 with Mann Whitney test.Results: The results showed that the concentration of fumes was 0.193 mg/m3 for formaldehyde, 0.35 mg/m3 for Stanum (Sn) and 3 mg/m3 for Pb. Although there was no significant difference for weight of RATs’ TESTIS between control and experimental subgroups, there was only a significant difference for the thickness of GERMINAL EPITHELIUM between 6 week experimental and control subgroups ( p<0.02).Conclusion: The results of study showed that SOLDER FUMES can change the structure and thickness of seminiferous epithelium in experimental groups in a time dependent manner.
