In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was studied the influence of a number of pigs in a group on swine productivity and blood indexes of pigs. In course of the study there were analyzed blood indexes of piglets before and at the end of the experiment. Research results showed that it was efficient to organize husbandry in small groups (10 heads per carriage). The adaptative period of animals in the conditions of husbandry in large groups (20 heads) was longer (the adaptation took place by the seventh day). In these conditions the average daily live weight gain of piglets was lower than in the conditions of small group husbandry on 5,1%. Research results showed that animal husbandry in the conditions of different number of heads per group did not render negative influence on morphological and biochemical blood composition.

Determination of adaptation and compensation abilities of larval forms of cestodes (cysticercus and echinococci) was realized by means of evaluation of biochemical composition of their internal environment. There was realized the following estimation of biochemical composition of internal environment: Cysticercus tenuycollis from sheep - 34, Cysticercus tenuycollis from swine - 17, Echinococcus granulosus L. from swine - 23. Estimation of biochemical composition of custodies larvaceous forms was realized on the basis of the standard veterinary methods. Research results revealed that osmotic volumetric concentration of internal environment of custodies larval forms was lower than of osmolarity of blood serum. The average value of osmolarity of blood serum for both sheep and swine was 296,63 mmol/l. Research results showed presence of large quantity of specific lipo- and glycoproteins in custodies larva forms. Cysticercotic liquid administrated into suspended matter of microorganism Micrococcus lysadeicticus and leads to lyzing up to 5% of microbal bodies. It was possible to testify the presence of lyzing activity in liquid of larval forms of cestodes. The research results showed that the analyzed larval forms of cestodes had a lot of different and strong defense mechanisms. Adaptation and compensation abilities of larval forms of cestodes had nonspecific character and contained the following: physical mechanisms; humoral immunocompetent factors; and biochemical adaptation
