To find out the influence of the mineral supplement “Stimulus +” on the intensity of physiological processes and productivity of bulls. To achieve this goal, we set ourselves the following tasks: 1. To study the effect of the additive “Stimulus +” on the hematological parameters of experimental bulls. 2. Investigate the effect of the drug “Stimulus +” on the quantitative and qualitative indicators of meat (slaughter quality, morphological and chemical composition of carcasses) and its biological value. To study the effect of the mineral supplement “Stimulus +” on the productivity of animals. The obtained results make it possible to correct the diets of experimental animals, which will positively affect erythropoiesis, respiratory function, certain areas of protein, energy, and hydrocarbon metabolism in young cattle, which will increase their productivity and improve the quality of beef obtained from them. Changes in the biochemical parameters of the blood of animals fed the mineral supplement were revealed. It is established to increase the productivity of animals by feeding them a mineral supplement, which indicates a more rational use of physiological resources of the body of experimental animals. It was found that feeding the animals led to an increase in slaughter yield by 3.8 % compared to control. It was found that during long-term storage (14 days) in the meat of animals of the control group, several changes indicate the beginning of spoilage of meat, and the meat of animals fed with mineral supplements was of good quality, as well as veterinary assessment was the best and more resistant to spoilage during storage. In order to prevent microelementosis of fattening cattle for fattening, increase their productivity, improve the physicochemical and veterinary-sanitary indicators of meat, and the profitability of production, we recommend adjusting their diets, according to previous studies.

<p>We provided an inclusion of the mineral supplement as clinoptilolite (Nat-Min 9000, fraction 0-1 mm, 70 g per horse/day, Nat-Min 200, fraction 0-0.2 mm, 28 g per head/day) in the ration of sports horses and this was provided a positive effect on the body of experimental animals as evidenced by data of blood biochemistry. The studied blood values were within the physiological norms, the usage of clinoptilolite led to optimization of the biochemical profile of sports horses. The use of the adsorption additive Nat-Min did not adversely affect the concentration of fat-soluble vitamins A and E in the blood of experimental animals. At the end of the experiment, the concentration of vitamins A and E in the blood of the animals of the 2nd test group were above the control by 0.95 - 5.50 μmol/L and by 6.78 - 12.09 μmol/L (p &lt; 0.05) in 3rd test group compared to the control. At the same time, the concentration of vitamin B2 in the horse blood of experimental groups decreased by 0.0037 μmol/ml (p &lt;0.05) in 2nd experimental group and 0,0031 μmol/l in 3rd test group. The content of lysozyme in the blood of animals of the 2nd and 3rd test groups has increased relative to the control level by 0.13 and 0.16 μg/ml, respectively. Phagocytic activity in experimental groups has increased relative to control by 1.40%. A positive effect of the Nat-Min feed additive (fractions of 0-1 and 0-0.2 mm) on the physiological processes in the animals was also established. Variations of mineral additive fodder resulted in a generally equivalent positive biological effect, which makes it possible to recommend the use of clinoptilolite for horse feeding.</p>

Introduction. The most susceptible to lead is the hematopoietic system of hematopoietic organs due to lead inhibition of heme and globin synthesis and cytotoxic effect on the membrane of Mature red blood cells. The aim of study was to evaluate the informative value of the study of erythrocyte and reticulocyte parameters determined on modern hematological analyzers in patients working in contact with lead during medical and biological monitoring. Materials and methods. 45 employees of the lead battery processing plant and 30 persons of control group were examined. The level of lead in the blood was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry, δ-ALA in the urine-by the reaction of pyrol formation with acetylacetone in terms of gram of creatinine, the study of hematological parameters was performed on a Sysmex HT-2000i analyzer. Statistical processing of the results was performed using the program STATISTICA 10.0. Results. Significant changes in erythrocytic (RDW) and reticulocytic (RET, IRF, LFR, MFR, HFR, RET-He) parameters, erythropoietin in workers in contact with lead compared to the control group, changes in MCV, MCH, RDW, RET indicators in the group working in dynamics after 2 years were revealed. Associations of hematological parameters with biomarkers of exposure and effect (lead level in blood and ALA in urine) were revealed. Conclusions. Assessment of erythrocyte (MCV, MCH, RDW) and reticulocyte parameters (RET% and their distribution by maturity) in dynamics during periodic medical examinations of workers in contact with lead allows us to detect the development of hematological disorders at early stages.

Background: We investigated whether the frequency of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) increased in patients in whom double-J stents were applied. We also evaluated several medical therapy protocols to treat symptoms related with ureteral stents.Materials and Methods: A total of 108 patients, in whom unilateral double-j stent was applied during ureteral stone treatment, were included. Before the double-J stent was applied, all patients completed storage components of the “International Prostate Symptom Score” (IPSSs), quality of life components of the IPSS (IPSS-QOL) and “Overactive Bladder Questionnaire” (OABq) forms and scores were calculated. After the procedure, cases were randomized into 5 groups, an antiinflammatory was given to Group 1, spasmolytic to Group 2, anticholinergic to Group 3 and α-blocker to Group 4. No additional drug was given to Group 5 as this control group. During the fourth week of the procedure, IPSSs, IPSS-QOL and OABq forms were again completed and scores were compared with the previous ones.Results: When all the cases were evaluated, the IPSSs, IPSS-QOLand OABq scores of patients in whom the double-J stent was applied were statistically significantly higher the procedure. Compared to the control group, the cases where the double-J stent was applied showed a higher IPSSs, IPSS-QOL and OABq scores and none of the medical therapies could prevent this increase.Interpretation: The frequency of LUTS increased in cases where the ureteral stent was applied and discomfort continued as long as the stent stayed in the body.

In this paper present the results of research of influence of the preparation «Kvatronan-Se» and carboxylates of Se, Cu, Mn, Cr, Ge in different combinations on haematological parameters of blood of experimental animals. Study was carried out on the basis of PC Haleks-Agro. It is located in the village Gul'sk of Novograd Volynskiy district of Zhytomyr region. In the farm to bred of Simmental cows. For the experiment was formed four groups. We took into account age, live weight of 650–700 kg and the average milk yield 5000–6000 kg. Animals is located in identical conditions of feeding and maintenance. Research experiment was carried out on animals couples counterparts.  Preparations introduced animals three times at 10–12 days after insemination. The cows first experimental group were injected complex nanokarboksylativ Ge, Cu, Mn and Cr, second – drug Kvatronan–Se and animals third experimental group was administered a complex composed of Se, Cu, Mn, Cr. On 13 day after insemination in experimental animals were taken blood from tail vein and examined the contents of hematological parameters. Established that injection nanokarboksylativ enhance the fertility of cows in the first and third group, the figure rose to 20% in the second by 40% compared with the control. Research hematological parameters blood  animals shows that after entering content drugs of blood cells had minor changes but remained within the physiological norm. The results show that in  concentration monocyte the second group  was at 5.53% (P > 0.01) higher compared to the control group and 2.3% compared to the first and third. The content of lymphocytes in this group decreased by 26.3% (P > 0.05), 22% and 16% relative to the control, the first and third groups. Also, it should be noted that the hemoglobin in the experimental groups decreased in group I by 7.9% in the II – 3.9% and III by 7.3% compared with the control group. Also, these groups distinguished downward trend eosinophils 1.8%, 1.5%, 2.05%.

The problem of complete mineral and vitamin nutrition in rabbit breeding is relevant today, despite new discoveries, and research in this direction continues both in Ukraine and around the world. The paper presents experimental data from the results of research to study the effect of different doses of vitamin and mineral supplement "Tekro" in the diets of young rabbits on their productivity, slaughter quality and biological value of rabbit meat. The obtained data of body growth, massometric indicators of carcasses and internal organs of rabbits of experimental groups after slaughter indicate a positive effect of vitamin-mineral supplement "Tekro" on the intensity of development of the body and individual internal organs, which contributes to increased metabolic processes and weight gain in animals research groups. Feeding vitamin and mineral supplements to rabbits of experimental groups of the New Zealand breed for 45 days contributed to a better transformation of feed nutrients into products. In rabbits of the 3rd experimental group, which together with basic ration were fed 3.5 % of the premix "Tekro" at 90 days of age, the highest rates of body weight were recorded, which differed by 8.89 % compared to the control group. In a set of indicators that characterize the nutritional value of rabbit meat, we studied sensory indicators that characterize the quality of rabbit meat: taste, color, pH, juiciness, moisture content, elasticity, aroma, "marbling", etc. It was found that in the appearance of carcasses and muscles in the control group, the samples scored 8.4 points. In the 3-rd and 4-th experimental groups, the number of points on this indicator was higher by 1.2 %. The difference was a trend. Examining the aroma of meat, it was found that in the control of this indicator, the samples scored 7.8 points. In meat samples from experimental groups 3 and 4, the aroma was more identical to natural, so the samples received 2.6 % higher scores. Samples from 3 experimental groups scored the most points in terms of taste. Compared with the control, the figure was higher by 3.6 %. Examining the juiciness of rabbit meat, it was found that samples obtained from carcasses 2 and 3 of the experimental group tended to increase this indicator. Summing up the data, it was found that the highest overall score was found in meat samples from 3 experimental groups. The difference with the control was within the trend and amounted to 2.4 %. Feeding rabbits vitamin and mineral supplements to rabbits helps to obtain good quality meat products with high culinary properties. No data were available to support the effect of vitamin and mineral supplements on compound feed on the synthesis of toxic substances in muscle tissue or the deterioration of rabbit meat. The biological value of muscle samples from rabbits of the 2-nd experimental group did not differ from the control data. The increase was only 0.11 %. It was found that the biological value of muscle tissue from animals of the 4th experimental group was greater than in the control. The difference was 2.6 % Meat obtained from rabbits of the 3rd experimental group, which were fed compound feed with a content of mineral-vitamin supplement "Tekro" 3.5 %, in biological value outweighed the control indicators. The difference was not significant and amounted to 4.1 %. The use of different doses of vitamin and mineral supplements in the feed of young rabbits did not lead to significant changes in the quality of raw hides and furs.

Relevance. Modern turkey crosses have a genetically determined high growth rate. These farm birds are very sensitive to even minor fluctuations in their diet, are susceptible to a deficiency of amino acids, protein, mineral elements and vitamins, which can contribute to a decrease in their productivity, the development of pathological processes and diseases. The use of modern technologies and scientific achievements has made it possible to prepare a new product — modified zeolite. This natural mineral is already free of impurities and microbes, with open pore windows, has a high ability to selectively exchange, and is obtained by various methods of activating zeolite in industrial conditions. At the same time, Ulyanovsk specialists have mastered the technology of enriching modified zeolite with useful substances.Methods. The aim of the work was to study the effect on the body of turkeys and the level of their productivity of additives based on modified zeolite enriched with amino acids. The experiment was organized for 60 days on 250 turkeys of the breed Hybrid Cread-mayker aged 55–60 days in the conditions of the Ulyanovsk region. The control group received the main ration (MR), the experimental group was given once a day in addition to the MR in the morning feeding in a mixture with mixed feed 5% additives of modified zeolite enriched with amino acids.Results. The inclusion of a supplement based on modified zeolite enriched with amino acids in the diet of turkeys does not have a negative effect on the hematological parameters of their blood, all indicators corresponded to the physiological norm. During the experiment in the 2nd group, the live weight of poultry was obtained larger by 8.70%, which amounted to 12,296 kg, respectively, more profit was obtained from the sale of turkey meat, total revenue was 133,210, and additional profit was 27,960 rubles, 2.41 rubles of profit was received for 1 ruble of costs. Тhe data indicate the normalization of mineral homeostasis in the body of turkeys and better absorption of nutrients in the feed diet.

An interest in plants of Amelanchier genus is stimulated by the necessity of search for plant sources rich in biologically active substances and possessing the ability to influence different physiological processes in a human organism. The article gives information about places of growth of different species of Amelanchier (Amelanchier Medic) and about the fact that its fruits contain high concentration of free sugars, relatively low level of organic acids, sufficient amounts of various vitamins and provitamins and a complex of mineral substances. Nutritive and biological value of Amelanchier fruits in complex may produce a beneficial effect on different biochemical and physiological processes of normal vital activity of a human organism. The data are given about a positive influence of enteral introduction of polysaccharides isolated from Amelanchier fruits, on different physiological processes that enhance adaptational reserves of an organism of experimental animals. In particular, it was shown that watersoluble polysaccharide complex (WSPC) of Amelanchier fruits activates erythropoiesis increasing the amount of erythrocytes and hemoglobin in blood of experimental animals and raises concentration of iron. WSPC improves physical working capacity and increases the body mass of experimental animals. Addition of watersoluble polysaccharide complex of Amelanchier fruits to blood of a healthy donor increases thermal, osmotic and peroxide resistance of erythrocyte membranes thus protecting cells against damage under action of adverse factors in the experiment. Fruits of plants of Amelanchier genus may be recommended to be used as a food additive or a product in dietary and prophylactic therapy.

AbstractSix ewes were given a white clover/grass silage with a high content of cyanogenetic glycosides during the last 69 to 97 days of pregnancy (group CN+), while the five ewes of the control group (group CN−) received a white clover/grass silage with a low content of cyanogenetic glycosides during the last 67 to 92 days of pregnancy. Uniodized salt was the only mineral supplement offered. The daily intake of cyanide (in the form of cyanogenetic glycosides) and of selenium per animal was 1000 and 60 mg of cyanide and 30 and 23 μg of selenium in group CN+ and CN− respectively. Initial erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase activity (GPx) was identical in both groups. Two weeks before parturition GPx activity was significantly lower in the ewes of group CN+ than in the ewes of group CN−. The newborn lambs of the group CN+ had significantly lower erythrocyte GPx activities (P&lt; 0·01) and tended to have higher plasma creatine kinase activities (P= 0·07) than the lambs of the group CN−. The results show that the intake of cyanogenetic glycosides affects the selenium status of sheep and increases the susceptibility of lambs to nutritional myopathy if the selenium content of the ration is marginal.Plasma thyroxine concentrations in the ewes in group CN+ were not reduced but their lambs tended to have slightly lower levels immediately after birth than the lambs of group CN− (P= 0·25). The intake of cyanogenetic glycosides presumably had no or at most only a slight effect on thyroid function, presumably because the body iodine reserves of the ewes were sufficient to offset the goitrogenic effect of thiocyanate.
