Petkov, P.
The purpose of the present study was to follow the blood mineral status in three groups of pigs and their crosses. Analysis of trace elements, Fe,Zn,Cu and Mn in the blood plasma was done. 70 pigs were used and were divided in 3 groups: group I aged 3-,4- and 5-months female Danish Yorkshire and 4-month-old Danish Landrace; group II according to the breed and gender (Danish Duroc, Danish Landrace and Danish Yorkshire from both sexes) and group III according to the breed and gender but reared under different conditions - Big White females, male Landrace, Big White female x Landrace male F1 crosses and English Duroc pigs. The results could serve to elaborate confidence intervals for these trace elements.
