Comparison of the results obtained in these analyses with reference values indicated Zn deficiency in the equines, Fe is in the minimum limit and the elements Cu and Mn are within the normal range.417-419openAccesshorseshairmulti-element analysisneutron activation analysiselementstrace amountsnutritionnutritional deficiencyArtigo de periódico224910.1023/a:1013239224784
