Investigation of histomorphological characteristics, organoleptic and physicochemical parameters of sheep meat and slaughter products, their biological value and bacterial number was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. Research results established that administration of liquid extract of common St.-John's wort (Hypericum perforatum) made it possible to obtain the substantial degree of sheep carcass bleeding, as well as the formation of a drying crust on a carcass surface. At a cut there was revealed the firm texture meat of light red or red color. Cut surface was wet and had specific flavour for the observed type of meat. Fat was solid, white or with yellow colour tone; tendons were elastic and solid. Analysis of boiled meat of sheep which were administrated by amber liquid essence showed that the cooking water was clear, without foreign odor. Meat of sheep, which were administrated by 2,5 % albazen suspension and were killed at 2 and 7 investigation days, had light medical odor in cooking water. In control variants the organoleptic parameters of sheep carcasses corresponded to fresh meat parameters of healthy animals. Realized physical-chemical analysis established the positive qualitative reaction to activity of peroxydase ferment in all meat samples, as well as the negative reaction to determination of primary protein breakdown products. Organoleptic and physical-chemical parameters of sheep meat after administration of amber liquid essence did not have any differences from animal meat of the control group

Evaluation of amino-acid, mineral, and vitamin content, as well as indexes of meat safety obtained from young stock of cattle of different genotypes in accordance with possibility of its application as raw material for baby food production was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. In course of study there were used bull calves of white-and-black breed, Limousin breed and their crossbreeds. Research results showed that young stock of Limousin breed, Limousin x white-and-black crossbreds, and white-and-black breed (control group) gave high quality meat. In meat of animals of experimental groups there was stated high quality of almost all nonessential amino acids and nonreplaceable amino acids, in meat of crossbreeds there was noted considerable increasing of polyunsaturated fatty acids. In it there was 12,31% of linoleic acid against 4,75 in Limousin breed and 2,77% in white-and-black breed; and eicosatetraenoic acid – 2,4% against 1,24% and 0,7%, respectively. Also in meat of experimental bull calves there was stated higher content of vitamins, calcium and phosphorus, while the content of cuprum and zinc decreased

It is determined on the basis of conducted researches on perfection of energy-protein nutrition norm of young cattle of 6-12 months of age that 11,5 MJ of exchange energy at 6-7 months of age and decease to 10 MJ for 12 month of age is needed in 1 kg of dry matter to get 1000 g of average daily weight gain. 8-9 g of digestible, 5 g of non-digestible protein should come for 1 MJ of exchange energy of a diet. 1 kg of DM (Dry Matter) should contain 133-150 g of crude and 46-54 g of non-digestible protein

For the well-timed prevention and treatment of sick animals there was analyzed the therapeutic efficiency of a produced survivor serum against acute respiratory diseases of sheep and lambs, as well as Catosal in combination with Nitox 200 against the mixed flow of parainfluenza-3, adenovirus, respiratory syncytial, chiamydial and pasteurellosis infection. Comparative efficiency of all mentioned preparations was presented. Research results showed the correct and timely application of drug preparations as well as their qualitative selection made it possible to lower the death cases. Application of the presented survivor serum in combination with Nitox 200 and Catosal made it possible to lower the loss of cattle in 4-5 times and increase the viability rate of animals

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there were presented the results of a veterinary and sanitary assessment and bacteriological investigation of sheep slaughter products, which showed meat serviceability for consumption after application of Triclafen suspension. Application Triclafen suspension did not render negative influence on an organism of animals. It was proved by organoleptic and laboratory research of meat of slaughter animals of experimental and control groups. The meat obtained from healthy sheep which were administrated the suspension in accordance with microbiological indicators proved to be of good quality and corresponded to the established norms (Sanitary regulations and standards 11 - 63 Republic of Belarus 98): it had the general bacterial content within admissible limits and did not contain agents of anthropozoonosts, alimentary toxicosis and toxinfections and it can be sold without any restrictions.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus as a result of task-specific selection and breeding work there was developed and approbated Berezinsky breed type of Belarusian meaty breed. Sows of the studied breed type were notable for high indices of reproductive signs: the average multiple pregnancy in three breeding swine herd was 11,1 pigs per farrowing; milkability - 55 kg, litter size at weaning stage at 35-day age - 87,1 kg. The predominancy over the forecast exponent indices made 4,7-5,7%. In course of the study there were analyzed the forecasted indexes of the basic breeding signs of Berezinsky breed type of Belarusian meaty breed for 2005-2010; productivity indices of the experimental sows; coefficient of variations of sow productivity.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was studied the possibility of increasing of meat yield productivity of ducklings of Temp cross in the conditions application of parental lines of Peking ducks of German breeding Stolle Seddin Vital (SVV) cross. In course of the study there was realized a comparative evaluation of linear and crossbred ducklings in accordance with meat qualities and blood indexes. There were presented the results of morphological composition of liner and crossbred duck carcasses; dynamics of changes of lipid exchange (total lipids; cholesterine; triglyceride) of ducklings; morphological composition of carcasses of father and mother combinations; blood indexes of ducklings; blood indexes of crossbred ducklings of final combinations. Research results showed that crossbred ducklings had high meat properties which exceeded the purebred ones. In ducklings with lower indexes of fattiness of carcasses there was noted the lowering of concentration of total lipids, cholesterine and triglyceride in blood.

Realization of veterinary and sanitary examination of meat and slaughter products of calves treated with hyperimmune serum against cattle colibacillosis was conducted in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. There were formed two groups calves of 3-5 days old. Calves of the first group were treated with serum biological preparation of trial series produced at Vitebsk Biofabrika (Belarus). Calves of the second group were intact animals. Calves of each group were killed in 14 days after preparation application for realization of veterinary-sanitary examination. Slaughter meat was studied in accordance with the following indexes: pH; peroxidase activity; presence of products of primary protein breakdown; moisture content; relative biological value of meat; bacterial examination. The research results of organoleptic indicators showed that meat of both groups corresponded to the standards. Hyperimmune serum against colibacillosis of live-stock animals did not render negative influence on organoleptic, physical and chemical indexes of meat. Indexes of the relative biological value in meat of calves treated with the examined serum were higher than the similar indexes of intact animals. Meat of all examined animals did not have any germs of toxico-infections and toxicoses

The study has stated that heifer replacements, from the date of birth to 18 months, got through transplantation of frozen-defrosted embryos were not inferior to and in many cases superior to the heifers of their age but got through traditional reproduction. Transplant first-calf heifers have a high level of milk productivity which amounts to 7536,10 kilos, with 3,62% of fat and 3,23% of protein. Thus they provide a good selection material for new generation champions to be chosen among them and for being used as mothers of bulls for service
