Aluminum
Aluminum (Al) is the third most abundant element in the earth's crust,
exceeded only by oxygen and silicon. However, it is found only in trace
amounts in biological organisms. Its concentration in soils varies geo-
graphically, and this variation is reflected in the levels in plants and
animals. Most water supplies contain little aluminum. In soils, much of
it occurs in clays arid feldspars, complex minerals composed primarily
of alumunum, silicon, and oxygen. Certain of these clays, such as kaolin
and benton~te, are added to animal diets for the following reasons: (1)
as pellet binders, (2) as external dusts to prevent clumping of pellets, or
(3) for suggested beneficial effects in the gastrointestinal tract. Any
effects of the clays on the animals are likely due to the properties of the
clays per se and not to their aluminum content.
Aluminum has been the subject of excellent reviews by Tracor-Jitco,
Inc. (1973), Sorenson et al. (1974), the Life Sciences Research Office
(LSRO, 1975) of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental
Biology, and Valdivia-Rodriguez (19771.
ESSENTIALITY
Aluminum has not been proven essential to animals (Schroeder and
Nason, 1971), but indirect evidence suggests it may be (Sorenson et al.,
1974~. Its concentration in tissues changes in a circadian rhythm and
with other changes in biological activity (Sorenson et al., 19741. Alumi-
num accumulates in regenerating bone (Belous, 1961), stimulates cer-

tarn enzyme systems involved with succinate metabolism (Hutchinson,
1943), and is reported essential for fertility in female rats (Lauro and
Giornelli, 19631. Aluminum increased the growth rate of poults, but this
may have resulted from prevention of the absorption of high levels of
fluorine (Struwe and Sullivan, 1975~. It may be important in the immune
response, since certain of its compounds are effective adjuvants and
since it (along with iron) increases in concentration in the spleen and
bone marrow during immunization (Kotter et al., 1966~. If a biological
requirement for aluminum exists, it has not been quantified.
METABOLISM
Rats and mice presented with a moderately high dietary aluminum
content (160 to 335 ppm) simply excreted most of it in the feces. A
larger dose fed to rats overwhelmed their resistance to absorption and
resulted in increased urinary, as well as fecal, excretion (Ondreicka et
al., 1966~. The importance of urinary excretion of aluminum is also
demonstrated by the effects of partial nephrectomy in rats, including
enhancement of aluminum accumulation in bone (Thurston et al., 1972)
and of susceptibility to aluminum toxicity (Berlyne et al., 19721. How-
ever, in spite of regulation of the aluminum content of the body by the
intestines and kidneys, the amount of aluminum retained is positively
related to the amount consumed (Tracor-Jitco, Inc., 1973; LSRO, 1975~.
Retained aluminum in rats, mice, and dogs is deposited in the liver,
skeleton, brain, and probably other tissues (those mentioned include
spleen, skeletal muscle, heart, kidney, thyroid, testis, and blood), but
there is no good agreement on which of these other tissues accumulate
significant quantities (Ondreicka et al., 1966; Berlyne et al., 1972;
Tracor-Jitco, Inc., 1973~. Elevated levels of parathyroid hormone in-
crease aluminum retention and alter its distribution among tissues
(Mayor et al., 19771. Liver aluminum levels are decreased by excess
dietary fluorine (Kortus, 19661. Furthermore, aluminum is bound in
vitro by transfemn or ovotransferrin (Tom~matsu and Donovan, 1976)
and seems to be transported and deposited in an inverse relationship
with iron (Butt et al., 19561.
SOURCES
Aluminum is generally not intentionally added to animal diets except as
clays such as kaolin and bentonite, as mentioned earlier. Grazing ani-

10 MINERAL TOLERANCE OF DOMESTIC ANIMALS
mats ingest considerable amounts of soil, sometimes over 10 percent of
their total dry matter intake (Field and Purves, 19641. Intake of this
much of some soils very high in aluminum could result in aluminum
consumption as high as 1.5 percent of the diet dry matter
(Valdivia-Rodriguez, 1977~. Aluminum is a significant contaminant in
sewage grown algae precipitated with alum (up to 8 percent) (Grau and
Klein, 1957), in soft phosphate (7 percent) (Harmon et al., 1970), and
in certain other mineral supplements at lower levels (Ammerman et al.,
1977~. Storer and Nelson (1968) were unable to detect aluminum in a
sem~purified diet for chicks, but Valdivia-Rodnguez (1977) found from
147 to 210 ppm in basal ruminant diets made largely from conventional
ingredients.
TOXICOSIS
Aluminum toxicosis is expressed largely as a secondary phosphorus
deficiency, presumably because it binds phosphorus in an unabsorb-
able complex in the intestine. High levels of dietary aluminum have
resulted in phosphorus deficiency signs in sheep (Valdivia-Rodriguez,
1977), chicks (DeobaId and Elvehjem, 1935; Storer and Nelson, 1968),
rats (Street, 1942; Thurston et al., 1972), and mice (Ondreicka et al.,
1966~.
Table 2 summarizes pertinent reports of aluminum toxicosis in ani-
mals. Studies involving the dietary inclusion of clays and soils are not
included, because the effects may not be due to the aluminum content,
even though there is some indication that a high aluminum content in
soil may cause problems (VaIdivia-Rodnguez, 19771.
LOW LEVELS
Chronic aluminum toxicity (see Table 2 for specific levels) produces
signs of a secondary phosphorus deficiency such as reduced growth
rate and feed efficiency in chicks (Grau and Klein, 1957; Storer and
Nelson, 1968) and rats (Street, 1942; Thurston et al., 1972), reduced
phosphorus absorption in sheep (Valdivia-Rodriguez, 1977), reduced
phosphorus retention in mice (Ondreicka et al., 1966), lower bone ash
content in chicks (Deobald and Elvehjem, 1935; Storer and Nelson,
1968), and reduced serum phosphorus in chicks (Deobaid and Elve-
hjem, 1935) and in rats (Street, 19421. Low to moderate levels of alumi-
num (up to 240 mg/kg per day of body weight) as the chloride or sulfate
caused various disturbances in carbohydrate and phosphorus metab-

Aluminum
TISSUE LEVELS
13
There is not good agreement on tissue aluminum levels, as shown in
Table 3. Dietary aluminum increases the concentration of aluminum in
several tissues in rats (Ondreicka et al., 1966; Berlyne et al., 1972),
sheep (Valdivia-Rodnguez, 1977), and cattle (Valdivia et al., 1978~.
There appear to be marked differences in measured levels among
species and between investigators working with the same species.
MAXIMUM TOLERABLE LEVELS
The main factors that can either increase or decrease the severity of
aluminum toxicity are the phosphorus level in the diet and the solubility
of the aluminum source. Using soluble salts of aluminum, Bailey ( 1977)
and Valdivia et al. (197X) found no adverse effects from feeding dietary
levels of 1,200 ppm aluminum to calves. Studies with sheep showed no
adverse effects from dietary levels of 1,215 ppm aluminum (Bailey,
19771. Based on these results, the maximum tolerable level of aluminum
for cattle and sheep is about 1,000 ppm.
No untoward effects on chicks were found with dietary aluminum
levels of 486 ppm (Cakir et al., 1978), but Storer and Nelson (1968)
showed that growth and efficiency of feed conversion were significantly
reduced when chicks were fed 500 ppm aluminum. Feeding aluminum
levels of 486 ppm had no effect on the performance of turkeys (Cakir
et al., l978~. Although no studies show the effects of feeding various
levels of aluminum to pigs, it would seem desirable to limit aluminum
from soluble salts to about 200 ppm for nonrum~nants.
SUMMARY
Aluminum is the third most abundant element in the earth's crust but
is found in only trace amounts in plants and animals. It has not been
proved to be biologically essential, but there are indirect indications
that it may be. Its toxic effects are mostly exerted through interfer-
ence with phosphorus absorption and metabolism. Levels that produce
toxicosis are determined by several factors.
