In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there were studied circadian rhythms of some haemotological and biochemical blood indexes of clinically healthy calves and calves with a respiratory syndrome. There was analyzed the efficiency of administration a new complex mineral preparation CMP for correction of internal desynchronoses in complex therapy of calves with respiratory pathologies. Diseases of calves with a respiratory syndrome were accompanied by infringements of circadian fluctuations rhythm (internal desynchronosis) of haemotological and biochemical blood indexes. Application of an antimicrobial preparation Ampicillin for treatment of respiratory diseases of calves promoted the recovery of calves. Introduction of CМP preparation into therapeutic regimen of calves with respiratory syndrome proved to be rather effective; it promoted the correction of metabolic desynchronoses which accompanied the basic disease. Combined application of CМP and Ampicillin made it possible to speed up the clinical recovery of calves and on 30% to prevent animal mortality.

On the basis of the spent research high enough preventive efficiency of Ehrakond application, low intensive laser radiation together with a constant magnetic field is defined that allows to recommend them for wide application in the program of immunocorrection of an organism of agricultural animals. At the first stage of the research in immune deficiency when in blood of newborn calves almost there are no antibodies, influence on biologically active points of an udder of cows (intensity 10 mW/square cm, expositions of seconds) has made positive impact on increase of immune properties of colostric milk. Use of immunostimulants Ehrakond also has increased immunocompetent properties of cow milk (7,5 mg on 1 kg of body weight once a day within 15 days). At feeding of colostrum the physiological condition, growth and development of calves have considerably improved. In the second (when colostric protection factors in an organism decline, and own organism forms them insufficiently) and the third (decrease in immune reactance at changes in feeding and the maintenance of calves) immune deficiency, application of immunostimulants Ehrakond and influence of low intensive laser radiation together with a constant magnetic field on reflexogenic zones on a young growth organism has made positive impact indices of natural resistance of calves. It has led to activization of factors of natural nonspecific protection of an organism that has considerably improved a physiological condition and has increased natural immunity of an organism to diseases. However, the best results on natural resistance, efficiency and safeties of calves have been reached at an irradiation at the BAP initial stage of a mammary gland at cows by low intensive laser radiation together with a constant magnetic field, with the subsequent bottle-feeding of the irradiated colostrum to newborn calves; in 10 days of a life to calves the preparation Ehrakond was entered. | На основании проведенных исследований определена достаточно высокая профилактическая эффективность применения Эраконда, низкоинтенсивного лазерного излучения совместно с постоянным магнитным полем, что позволяет рекомендовать их для широкого применения в программе иммунокоррекции организма сельскохозяйственных животных. На первом этапе исследований в период иммунного дефицита, когда в крови новорожденных телят почти отсутствуют иммуноглобулины, воздействие на биологически активные точки вымени коров (интенсивность 10 мВт/см2, экспозиции секунд) оказало положительное влияние на повышение иммунных свойств колострального молока. Использование иммуностимулятора Эраконд также повысило иммунокомпетентные свойства молока коров (7,5 мг на 1 кг живой массы один раз в сутки в течение 15 дней). При скармливании колострального молозива значительно улучшились физиологическое состояние, рост и развитие телят. В период второго (когда колостральные факторы защиты в организме угасают, а собственный организм образует их недостаточно) и третьего (снижение иммунной реактивности при изменениях в кормлении, содержании телят) иммунного дефицита, применение иммуностимулятора Эраконд и воздействие низкоинтенсивного лазерного излучения совместно с постоянным магнитным полем на рефлексогенные зоны на теле молодняка оказало положительное влияние показатели естественной резистентности телят. Это привело к активизации факторов естественной неспецифической защиты организма, что значительно улучшило физиологическое состояние и повысило естественную невосприимчивость организма к болезням. Однако, наилучшие результаты по естественной резистентности, продуктивности и, сохранности телят были достигнуты при облучении на начальном этапе БАТ молочной железы у коров низкоинтенсивным лазерным излучением совместно с постоянным магнитным полем, с последующим выпаиванием облученного молозива новорожденным телятам; через 10 дней жизни телятам вводили препарат Эраконд.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was determined the therapeutic efficacy of combined application of a complex antibacterial veterinary drug (containing lincomycin and spectinomycin) and Trivitim for the treatment of calves with respiratory diseases. In course of the study of 12 1-1,5 month old calves with respiratory diseases there were analyzed the hematological blood indexes, white blood cell differential and content of total protein in blood serum before the beginning of treatment and on the seventh and fourteenth days after beginning treatment. Research results showed that application the antibacterial veterinary drug in complex therapy with Trivitim in treatment of calves proved to be efficient. Their administration shortened the terms of recovery and prevented animal death as well as promoted the normalization of hematological and biochemical blood indexes.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there were determined the doses of application of siliceous sapropel as well as there were studied the indexes of ruminal digestion and digestibility of diet nutrient substances by bull calves. The studied siliceous sapropel of the lake Pribylovichi (Belarus) occurence on 42% consisted of organic substances and on 58% - of mineral substances: calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium, iron, zinc, manganese, and copper. The studied sample of sapropel did not render toxic action on test objects of infusorian Tetrahymena pyriformis in the conditions of its addition into the basic forage in number of 1%; 3%; 5%; and 10%. However, its higher concentrations (10%) retarded the development of Protozoa. Feed additives with the content of siliceous sapropel in mixed fodder in dose of 1%, 3% and 5% increased the relative biological value of forage in the experiments on test objects of infusorians Tetrahymena pyriformis in the average respectively on 5,4%, 5,0 and 2,6%. Higher concentrations of sapropel in mixed fodder (5 and 10%) lowered its nutritional value. Inclusion of siliceous sapropel in bull calve rations activated the enzymatic processes in farding bag and increased the digestibility nutritive elements on 2,3-3,6% except for protein, digestibility which was practically at identical level at animals of all groups.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was analyzed the productivity of 13-18-month old young stock of cattle which was bred for meat with various levels of energy value nutrition. Also, there were noted their slaughter qualities and chemical composition of meat. Administration of diet rations with an increased level of exchange energy and the best indices of protein fissility rendered a positive influence on productivity of young stock of fattening cattle and made it possible to obtain 1103-1100 gram of body weight gain. As a result, the energy value gain was 22,9-22,6 MJ along with conversion of metabolizable energy at a gain - 24,7-25,3%. Consumption of metabolizable energy per 1 MJ along with body weight gain were within 4,7-5,0 MJ. Feeding of rations with various levels of the studied factor rendered the positive influence on slaughter qualities, made it possible obtain slaughter yield of 53,6-54,6% at an optimum ratio of nutrients in meat. Feeding of bull calves with diets with excessive content (up to 10%) of metabolizable energy made it possible to lower the prime cost of obtained breeding products on 0,55%.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was analyzed the efficiency of application of a whole milk substitute Biomilk-11 and feed additive SFDK-1 (biologically active enzymatic feed additive) for breeding of young stock of cattle, by an example of calves of black-and-white breed. In course of the study there was analyzed the composition of the feed additive SFDK-1 (weight fraction of dry matter; weight fraction of protein; content of amine nitrogen; cellulose fiber activity) as well as the physical and chemical indexes of the whole milk substitute Biomilk-11 (moistness; crude protein; crude fat; crude fibre). There were presented indexes of live weight gain of experimental and control calves as well as the dynamics of average daily weight gains in experimental group. Research results proved the efficiency of application of both additive for calves feeding.

Determination of degree and relations between derangements of metabolic processes in calves with respiratory syndrome in the milking period was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. Research results showed that the calves with the respiratory syndrome had expressed metabolic processes disturbances, which were marked in the analyzed biochemical blood indexes (total protein; albumins; urea; creatinine; glucose; cholesterin; triglycerids; bilirubin; ALP; AAT; SGPT; calcium; phosphorous; magnesium; iron; manganese; cobalt; cuprum; zinc). In calves with respiratory syndrome there was noted the increased content of crude protein in blood serum (71,42 +/- 2,57 g/l P less than 0,05), low urea level (3,08 +/- mmol/l). There was the increased level of creatine (574,11 +/- 65,26 mkmol/l; P less than 0,01) and bilirubin (8,11 +/- 1,15 mkmol/l; P less than 0,05). Glucose concentration in blood of diseased calves was at below standard level (3,49 +/- 0,69 mmol/l). Glucose indexes varied and were changing during a day; and depended on muscular activity, intervals between feeding and hormonal regulation. Diseased calves had high cholesterol level in blood serum (4,07 +/- 0,34 mmol/l; P less than 0,05), which was stated in case of liver disease and hypothyroidism. Phosphor level was higher than the standard indexes of healthy calves (2,85 +/- 0,03 and 2,05 +/- 0,05, respectively). Content of magnesium, cobalt and zinc in blood of the diseased calves was lower than in healthy ones. Calves with respiratory pathology had protein, fat, hydro-carbonic and mineral metabolic processes

Investigation of acute and subchronic (chronic) toxicity of complexinates of trace elements in experiments with calves was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. The realized experiments were based on developed in Belarus veterinary preparations for the treatment and prevention of diseases connected with disorders of trace elements exchange containing chelate compounds of trace elements with sodium ethylene diamine acetate: Cuprovet (on the basis of CuNa); Cobalvet (on the basis of CoNa), Zinkovet (on the basis of ZnNa), and Feravet (on the basis of FeNa). There were the following indexes of ferrum in nephros - 55,3 +/- 2,26, in muscles - 134 +/- 26,6 mkg/g, and in liver - 565 +/- 35,5 mkg/g after administration of Feravet. There were the following index of zinc in nephros - 56,3 +/- 2,64, in muscles -25, 8 +/- 1,23 and in liver - 84,4 +/- 3,29 mkg/g after administration of Zinkovet. There were the following indexes of cuprum in nephros - 4,1 +/- 0,325, in muscles - 2,33 +/- 0,117, and in liver - 12,3 +/- 1,12 mkg/g after administration of Cuprovet. There were the following indexes of cobalt in nephros - 40,35 +/- 2,29, in muscles - 12,5 +/- 0,98, and in liver - 126,5 +/- 10,45 ng/g after administration of Cobalvet. Parameters of toxicity of all preparations were by the example of laboratory mice, rats and calves given. Content of trace elements in blood of calves in dynamics of the experiment was analyzed. There were determined parameters of acute toxicity of the analyzed preparations: they all could be referred to substance hazard category 4 (low-hazardous substances). The determined parameters of acute toxicity made it possible to recommend them for treatment and prophylaxis of microelementoses of cattle, as well as to use them as feed additives taking into consideration that defect action levels of the analysed preparations exceed the deficiency needs of cattle in case of their limited cumulation

Investigation of efficiency of electrochemically active solutions in complex therapy of calves with diseases of the digestive apparatus and respiratory organs was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. Calves diseased with dyspepsia and bronchopneumonia were chosen for investigation of gastrointestinal diseases and respiratory diseases. At the first stage there was studied the therapeutic efficacy of water solution of electrochemically active neutral anolyte and sodium hypochloride solution Akvamed for calves sick with dyspepsia. At the second stage there was analyzed the therapeutic efficacy of 0,04 % solution sodium hypochloride Akvamed for the treatment of bronchopneumonia of calves. Research results showed that inclusion into complex therapeutic regimen of calves of electrochemically active solutions promoted the reduction of disease duration and severity. Electrochemically active solutions had high biocidal activity and could be produced in large volumes, had practical safety, low price and acute therapeutic effect

Evaluation of antagonistic activity of strains of lactic and bifid bacteria, metabolite producers, as well as the treatment and prophylactic efficacy of Laktimet and Batsinil probiotics was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. In course of study there were estimated 29 strains of lactic acid bacillus of different kinds, 13 strains of bifid bacteria and 35 strains of bacillus (Bac. subtilis and Bac. pumilis). There were studied 3 strains of bifid bacteria: Bifidobacterium adolescentis MS-42; Bifidobacterium adolescentis BIM V-01; Bifidobacterium adolescentis BIM V-87; 2 strains of lactic acid bacillus: Lactococcus lactis subsp. Lactis BIM V-132, Lactococcus casei subsp. rhamnosus BIM V-189; and 6 strains of Bacillus subtilis. Research results showed that the main part of the studied strains had steady antagonistic activity to test-cultures of opportunistic pathogenic bacteria. Zone of growth delay of test-cultures of the main quantity of strains (from 54 up to 92%) was from 11 up to 30. Research results showed that application of cell-free probiotics Laktimet and Batsinil promoted the increasing of resistance by means of increasing or lowering of total protein, insignificant increasing of blood serum bactericidal activity and increasing of phagocytic activity of leukocytes on 7,3%
