Abstract: The diagnosis of electrical injuries may be difficult and sometimes we should use some methods to support that. In this experimental rat study; electrical injuries were made in the dorsal skin of rats using 110 V, 100 A ac current. Swabs were taken from these injuries and investigated for iron and copper by using atomic absorption spectrometry. There was a great significance between study and control groups for copper (p < 0.01). It was suggested that metallic deposition to skin in electrical injuries can be shown by atomic absorption spectrometry as quantitatively and can be used for improving the diagnostic sensitivity of electrical lesions. © 2004 Published by Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
