The studies were conducted in 2015 on Large Whitepigs of the breeding farm of the AO “Linevskiy plemzavod” (Altai Region, Smolenskiy District). The research goal was to determine the growth rate and blood biochemical indices of pigs when using LipoKar feed supplement.According to the design of the experiment, the animals of the control group were fed the basic dietonly. In the trial group, the sows received LipoKar feed supplement for 20 days startingfrom the 85th day of pregnancy. Then, the piglets born from them were also fed LipoKar feed supplement during the nursery period for 40 days in a 10 days’ interval. The dosages of the feed supplement were as following: for pregnant sows -2.1 g perhead per day; for young animals -0.8 g per head per day. The following effects of using LipoKar feed supplementwere found in the trial group: increasing piglet live weight from 4.2% to 11.7% (p < 0.001), average daily live weight gains -from 3.4% to 18.6% (p < 0.05); total protein, vitamin A and alkaline re-servein blood serum by 15.5% (p < 0.001), 9.2% (p < 0.05) and 20.9% (p < 0.001), respectively

Blood Biochemical Indices

The seed bulls used for artificial insemination should be in good health, have outstanding genetic characteristics, have high sexual activity, and the biological products ob-tained from them should have high quality indices. One of the possible methods of increasing semen production is the introduction of dietary supplements into the diet. The intro-duction of new feed and biologically active supplements into the diet may cause both positive and negative changes in metabolic processes. Monitoring the biochemical status of blood allows detecting not only metabolic disorders in highly productive animals but also a lack of vitamins, mac-ro-and microelements. The research goal was to study the effect of a natural biostimulant (mineral supplement) made from maral antler press-cake on the blood biochemical indices ofBlack Pied seed bulls in the breeding company AO “Plempredpriyatiye Barnaulskoye”. Along with the basic diet, the seed bulls of the trial group received the natural biostimulant (mineral supplement) based on maral antler press-cake; the daily dose -15.0 g per head, for 30 days with 10 days’ interval after each application. The supple-ment was thoroughly mixed with compound feed before feeding. The mineral supplement is of powder form and contains a complex of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other biologically active substances. The use of a mineral supplement increased the amount of total protein and al-bumin by 7.15% and 18.3%, respectively. The blood glu-cose level in the seed bulls of the trial group was higher by 12% and cholesterol by 17.1% than in the blood of the con-trol group animals. Cholesterol of the seed bulls may be used as a structural material or a precursor in the synthesis of sex steroid hormones. The level of total calcium, alkaline reserve at the end of the experiment increased in the seed bulls when using the mineral supplement made from maral antler press-cake in the diet by 4.8% and 8.1%, respective-ly, as compared to the control group.

As an important branch of farming industry, dairy farm-ing always needs innovative ideas for its development. One of the areas of innovation is feed production which allows developing new feeding methods and types of feed sup-plements to increase the efficiency of livestock production and reduce its costs. The research goal was to investigate the effect of the TTK (G) feed supplementon the morpho-logical indices of pre-weaning calves. The studies were carried out on the training farm AO “Uchkhoz Prigo-rodnoye” of the Altai State Agricultural University; Black-Pied calves of the Priobskiy type were studied. Three groups of eight newborn calves were formed -1 control group and 2 trial groups. The experiment lasted was 50 days from the age of ten days. According to the experi-mental design, the animals received the basic diet; the second group -the basic diet supplemented with TTK (G) (1 kg t); the third group -the basic diet supplemented with TTK (G) (2 kg t). The calves were kept ingroups. The mi-croclimate met the requirements. The following was found: 1) supplementing the diets of pre-weaning calves with the TTK (G) feed supplement led to live weight gains (2nd trial group -by 7.9%; 3rd trial group -by 12.5%); average daily growth gain (14.3% and 25.7%) and some body measure-ment gains -by 2.4-17.1% and 3.8-20.1%; 2) the use of TTK (G) feed supplement contributed to immune system reinforcement and increase the blood corpuscle count; 3) the use of the TTK (G) feed supplement increased the profits by 1626.7 rubles per 1 head at a dose of 1 kg t.

Present study was aimed to investigate the effects of two organophosphate pesticides (dimethoate and chlorpyrifos) on some blood biochemical parameters of juveniles common carps (Cyprinus carpio var. communis). Fingerlings were subjected to bioassays divided into 5 experimental groups in range finding test on the basis of which the doses for definitive tests were selected. The acute bioassay toxicity tests were carried out in triplicates for 96 hours with a control group run parallel to the experiment. Data obtained was analyzed as per Finney’s probit to determine LC50 values. The mean lethal concentration (LC50) values for dimethoate and chlorpyrifos were found 1.1ppm and 3.8ppb respectively. The samples were investigated for various blood biochemical indices such as total protein (TP), serum albumin (SA), serum globulin (SGLO), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), asphartate aminotransferase (AAT), serum bilirubin (SB), serum glucose (SGLU), serum cholesterol (SC), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). All the liver enzymes (AAT, ALT, SB and LDH) and glucose (SGLU) were found increased while as TP, SA, SGLO, SB and SC were found decreased than the normal. Chlorpyrifos, was however, found to alter the biochemical indices more profoundly than dimethoate. The results indicated the organophosphate pesticides are intensely harmful for fish health. Their entry to natural waterbodies must be stopped besides ensuring their judicious application around the catchment area.

The experiment aimed to examine the impacts of an increased growth rate of ewes between three and seven months of age on udder development using ultrasound and to establish whether ultrasonography could be used to identify ewe mammary structures that may be indirect indicators of singleton growth to weaning. Udder dimensions, depths of gland cistern (GC), parenchyma (PAR) and fat pad (FP) were measured in late pregnancy (P107), early lactation (L29), and at weaning (L100) in 59 single-bearing yearling ewes selected from two treatments. The ‘heavy’ group (n = 31) was preferentially fed prior to breeding achieving an average breeding live-weight of 47.9 ± 0.38 kg at seven months of age. The ‘control’ group (n = 28) had an average breeding live-weight of 44.9 ± 0.49 kg. Udder dimensions, GC, PAR and FP did not differ between treatments. Lamb growth to L100 was positively associated (p < 0.05) with PAR at P107 and GC at L29. There was no evidence of negative effects of the live-weight gain treatments on udder development of yearling ewes as measured by ultrasonography. The results suggest that this ultrasound method has the potential to identify pregnant yearling ewes which would wean heavier singletons.

The authors studied the growth characteristics (morphophysiological indicators) of broilers’ digestive organs when using Pharmatan in the diet at doses of 0.025; 0.05 and 0.075%. For the study, three medium-weight broiler chickens were selected – on a daily basis for the first three days, then on a weekly basis. The mass of the stomach, individual intestines, the mass of internal organs, and the coefficient of growth rate were determined according to Brody. To study the relative growth rate, the simple allometry formula y = axb was used. It has been established that the most intensive growth of the digestive organs is observed in the first week of broiler life and consists in the stimulated growth of the intestine, especially the cecum. Later on, the growth of the digestive organs in birds of the control group increases and becomes equal to or higher than in broilers of the experimental group. In general, for 42 days of the experiment, the growth rate of the organs of the gastrointestinal tract is practically the same in the birds of the experimental and control groups. The parameters of the regression equations indicate significant differences in the growth of individual organs of the digestive tube during the individual development of broilers. In the experimental groups of broilers, almost all intestinal organs grow quite intensively (b = 1.325–1.783) during the first week of raising, with relatively low values of determination coefficients (cecum – R2 = 0.355; jejunum – R2 = 0.745). High morphological values of 7-day-old birds treated with Pharmatan form the basis for growing broilers with a higher live weight.

Abstract Gastric cancer (GC) continues to be one of the major causes of cancer deaths worldwide. Meanwhile, liquid biopsies have received extensive attention in the screening and detection of cancer along with better understanding and clinical practice of biomarkers. In this work, 58 routine blood biochemical indices were tentatively used as integrated markers, which further expanded the scope of liquid biopsies and a discrimination system for GC consisting of 17 top-ranked indices, elaborated by random forest method was constructed to assist in preliminary assessment prior to histological and gastroscopic diagnosis based on the test data of a total of 2951 samples. The selected indices are composed of eight routine blood indices (MO%, IG#, IG%, EO%, P-LCR, RDW-SD, HCT and RDW-CV) and nine blood biochemical indices (TP, AMY, GLO, CK, CHO, CK-MB, TG, ALB and γ-GGT). The system presented a robust classification performance, which can quickly distinguish GC from other stomach diseases, different cancers and healthy people with sensitivity, specificity, total accuracy and area under the curve of 0.9067, 0.9216, 0.9138 and 0.9720 for the cross-validation set, respectively. Besides, this system can not only provide an innovative strategy to facilitate rapid and real-time GC identification, but also reveal the remote correlation between GC and these routine blood biochemical parameters, which helped to unravel the hidden association of these parameters with GC and serve as the basis for subsequent studies of the clinical value in prevention program and surveillance management for GC. The identification system, called GC discrimination, is now available online at http://lishuyan.lzu.edu.cn/GC/.
