The research was realized by an example on 30 chickens aged 1, 10, 20, 30 60-days old, and 10 hens: 4-months, one-year-old and 2-year-old in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. All poultry stock was maintained in the conditions of industrial production at the Gorodokskaya Poultry Farm of Vitebsk region (Belarus). As a result of the study there was revealed a certain pattern of variation of a quantity of active forms of enzymes in organs chickens of different age. Application of histochemical methods made it possible to reveal different levels of metabolic processes in cellular elements of thyroid gland, which demonstrated the habit of formation and functioning of the organ at different stages of postnatal ontogenesis in hens. Coefficients of acid phosphatase activity in thyrocytes of thyroid gland of hens and indexes of alkaline phosphatase activity in secretion forming cells were analyzed. | Исследование провели на 30 цыплятах в возрасте 1-, 10-, 20-, 30- 60-дней, и 10 курах: 4-месячные молодки, годовалые и 2-летние особи. Все поголовье птицы содержалось в условиях промышленного производства на Городокской птицефабрике Витебской области. В результаты исследований установлена определенная закономерность изменения количества активных форм ферментов в органах птиц разного возраста. Использование гистохимических методов позволило выявить разные уровни метаболических процессов в клеточных элементах щитовидной железы, которые демонстрируют характер становления и функционирования органа на разных этапах постнатального онтогенеза кур. В табличной форме представлены коэффициенты активности кислой фосфатазы в тироцитах щитовидной железы кур и показатели активности щелочной фосфатазы в секретообразующих клетках.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was studied a state of lipid peroxidation, antioxidant protection and activity of hepatospecific enzymes of blood plasma of piglets. Research results showed that weanling piglets which had low body weight in the conditions of industrial breeding technology were characterized by high intensity of processes of lipid peroxidation. At the same time, the antioxidant system reacted adequately to the mentioned above changes. There was noted a high dependence between the content of Schiff's bases which were the end-products of lipid peroxidation processes, and the activity display of amplifier hepatospecific enzymes of blood plasma of weanling piglets. The received results of research can be used for estimation of a condition of prooxidant and antioxidant status, and in a complex with data on activity of sorbitol dehydrogenases, isocitratdehydrogenases and glutamatedehydrogenases - for an estimation of a functional state of a liver of weanling piglets with low body weight at an initial stage of their breeding.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was determined the influence of multi-enzymatic veterinary drug preparations Vitazim (contained a complex of enzymes of carbohydrases: xilanase; cellulose; beta-glucanase) and Ehkosim (universal multi-enzymatic complex: beta-glucanase; endo-xilase; and cellulase) on microbial composition of intestinal bacterial population. Research was realized by an example of layer hens of four-linear cross Highsex white at the age of 34-51 weeks. Regimens of administration of the analyzed preparations were presented. Research results showed promoted the development of the regenerative process of physiological media in intestines of poultry which was necessary for subsisting of normal flora of pathogenic bacteria. The studied preparations Vitazim and Ehkosim can be applied for the preventive treatment and therapy of intestinal dysbacteriosis, normalization of its microbial flora, as well as for the antibacterial therapy.
