Abstract

Experimental nephropathy has been induced in rabbits using an indigenous preparation of gold, popularly known as "Gold Kushta ". Proteinuria and associated renal glomerular lesions of variable severity were observed in the animals on Kushta feed and those injected with sodium aurothiomalate. In addition, a probable mechanism of gold-induced nephropathy is also discussed.
