Influence of monocalcium phosphate on natural resistance and clinical indexes of blood of breeding bull calves of white-and-black breed was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. Bull calves of the first (control) group in the composition of their main ration were fed with mixed fodder K-66-b, hay, green mass and as a balanced phosphoric-potassium additive they were fed with8 grams of defluorinated phosphate per 1 kg of mixed feed. Bulls of the second, third and fourth experimental groups in combination with the standard ration instead of difluoridated phosphate were fed with 5; 10; and 15 grams monocalcium phosphate per 1 kg of combined feed, respectively. Research results showed that application of fodder monocalcium phosphate in addition to the main ration made it possible to increase calcium and phosphorus content in blood of experimental bull calves. In the control group phosphorous content was 2,17 micromole, in the experimental groups – 2,40-2,78 micromole; calcium content – 2,50 and 2,58-2,88 micromole, respectively. The analyzed additive rendered positive effect on protein exchange, increased the natural resistance, bacterial growth-inhibitory activity in blood serum in the third, fourth and second groups on 50,3%, 42,5%, and 40,3%, respectively; lysozyme activity – on 46,0%, 39,2%, and 32,3%, respectively; phagocytic activity of leukocytes – on 21,9%, 25%, and 19,1%
