Abstract (2. Language): 
Bu çalışmada Kahramanmaraş’ta yaşayan insanlarda serum bakır(Cu) ve çinko(Zn) düzeyleri saptandı. 95 erkek ve 115 kadından bir gece açlıktan sonra kan örnekleri toplandı ve serumlar Atomik Absorpsiyon Spektrofotometresi ile analiz edildi. Veriler cinsiyet ve yaş gruplarına göre değerlendirildi. Ortalama değerler Zn için 95.99±1.25 µg/dL ve Cu için 123.14±1.63 µg/dL olarak bulundu. Cu değerleri kadınlarda erkeklerden belirgin olarak daha yüksekken(p<0.001), Zn değerleri yaş ve cinsiyete göre belirgin bir farklılık göstermedi. Bakır değerleri yaşla da önemli bir artış gösterdi . Elde edilen değerlerin literatürde belirtilen normal aralıkta olduğu ve bölgemizde bakır ve çinko eksikliği olmadığı sonucuna varıldı.
Abstract (Original Language): 
In this study, the serum copper(Cu) and zinc(Zn) levels of healthy subjects living in Kahramanmaraş were determined. After overnight fasting, blood samples were collected from 95 male and 115 female subjects and the serum samples were analyzed using atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS). The data were evaluated according to gender and age groups. The average values were found to be 95.99±1.25 µg/dL for Zn and 123.14±1.63 µg/dL for Cu. The Zn values did not show a significant change with either age or gender while Cu levels were observed to be significantly higher in women than men (p<0.001). It also markedly increases with age. The values observed were within the normal limits reported in literature and it was concluded that there was no Zn or Cu deficiency in our region.
