The aim of experiment was to establish the levels of antioxidant vitamines E and A in blood serum of the chickens affected by subclinical doses of T-2 toxin and to estimate the changes of vitamine levels by diagnostic means and to compare their preventive properties. 18 chickens were used in the experiment,. These birds were divided into 3 groups and fed on toxic feeds containing vitamine additives. Levels of vitamines in their serum were tested by fluorimetric methods and other tests were done by a Hospitex CH-16 apparatus. The results show that vitamine E and selenium have protected chickens from T-2 toxicosis.
