In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus it was determined that application of monocalcium phosphate in a dose of 10 gram per 1 kilogram of mixed fodder and specified doses of trace elements (cuprum; zink; cobalt; manganese; iodine) in diets of growing pedigree bull calves made it possible to increase indices of body weight of young cattle stock of the third experimental group in comparison with animals of the first and the second groups on 18,3 and 11 kg or respectively on 3,9 and 2,3%; as well as to increase the intensity of their growth. The highest daily average live weight gain was noted at animals of the third experimental group – 1062 grams. It was higher than at bull calves of the first and the second groups respectively on 31,3 and 12,8 grams, or on 3 and 1,2%. Application of monocalcium phosphate in a dose of 10 gram per 1 kilogram of mixed fodder favorably affected the formation of desirable type of sexual behavior and indices of semen production quality. Thus, in the third experimental group in comparison with animals of the first and the second groups the volume of ejaculate was on 0,2 and 0,1 ml higher (or on 5,8 and 2,9%); quantity of sperm in ejaculate - on 0,7 and 0,3 billion, or on 35 and 15%.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there were analyzed the doses and efficiency of application of selenium in composition of a mixed fodder KP-2 in diets of bull calves of at their breeding for meat. In course of the study the was developed a formula of a mixed fodder with various doses (0,1; 0,2; 0,3 mg per 1 kg of a dry matter of a ration) of selenium; there was studied the influence of different selenium doses in mixed fodders on palatability of diets, their digestibility, use of nutritive elements and hematological indexes of animals. Also, there was analyzed the influence of different doses of selenium on bull calves growing intensity. There was given the zootechnical and economic evaluation of usage of selenium for bull calves. Selenium dose of 0.2 milligram per 1 kilogram of dry matter proved to be the most efficient and promoted the increasing of average daily body weight gain on 10.9%.

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 multi-enzyme preparations (drugs) Ehkozim (contained beta-glucanases; endo-xilanase; cellulose) and Vitazim (contained complex of enzymatic carbohydrases: xylanase; cellulose; beta-glucanases) in diets of lying hens. Vitazim was applied for destruction of complex structures: dietary fibre, protein, starch. Ehkozim was applied for albuminolysis of the main nonstarch polysaccharides of fodders. It was established that application of preparations in feeding of lying hens promoted the increasing of biological value of poultry meat, and prove to be economically expedient. Poultry meat of analyzed samples in accordance with physical, chemical and bacteriological indices, as well as in accordance with biological value and harmlessness was not worse than meat of control samples. As a result of the realized bacteriological research of all experimental samples of meat and internal organs there were not stated microorganisms Е. coli, S. aureus, bacteria of sort Proteus, B. сеreus and sulfate-reducing clostridium, salmonellas.

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.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was analyzed the interrelation between the main indexes of cattle milk performance of dairy cattle of Large Red Belarusian breed and Belarusian Black-and-White breed with different genotypes of kappa casein gene. In course of the study there was determined the frequency of occurrence of genotypes and alleles by kappa-casein gene in population of cows of mentioned above breeds. Values of correlation coefficients between some indexes of milk performance of the studied breeds were analyzed. Correlation factors between the basic indexes of milk performance of cows with different genotypes of kappa casein. Research results showed that milk protein content and butter-fat yielding capacity were in negative association with the main breeding trait of dairy cattle – amount of milk yield. Butter-fat yielding capacity and milk protein content correlated positively. Thus, selection breeding in accordance with one of this traits will promote increasing of the other. Besides, it is necessary to realize DNA-diagnostics of cattle according to kappa casein gene and to select animals having in their genomes allele CSN3**B connected with higher milk protein content.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was determined the influence of different rates of lithium addition into mixed fodders for sows feeding on hematological indexes and their reproductive qualities. In course of the study there was analyzed the dynamics of body weight of sows over the reproductive period; indexes of productivity of sows (number of born piglets; weight of 1 piglet; litter weight; weight of weanling piglets; number of weanling piglets; etc.); hematological indexes of sows; state of humoral factors of immunity of sows. Research results showed that in case of lithium application in diets of sows there was stated an improvement of hematological indexes and immunity functions and resistance. The optimal level of lithium in rations was 15 milligram per 1 kilogram of dry matter of a diet. This dose essentially promoted the increasing of reproductive performance, piglets weight and milking capacity of sows as well as better viability of piglets.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was realized comparative evaluation of chemical composition and nutritive value of silages produced on the basis of millet (Panicum) and maize (Zea mays), their productive action and economic efficiency of ensilage fodders in diets of young stock of cattle. Data of chemical analysis showed the benefits of millet silage. The content of crude protein, crude fat, carotene, calcium and phosphorous was higher in millet silage. The analogous situation was in the analysis of biochemical indexes and energy value of dry matter. As a result of application of millet silage in diets of young stock of cattle made it possible to obtain 3,7 kg of body weight gain, while the expenses of forage per 1 kilogram of of weight gain lowered on 0,34 centner of fodder units, or 3,6%. Prime cost of 1 centner of fodder units in a diet in experimental group was on 57,3% lower than in a control one. Thus, use of millet silage in diets of heifers made it possible to lower the cost of fodders per 1 kilogram of weight gain on 63,2%, and prime cost of 1 kilogram of weight gain – on 19,8%.

In the conditions of the Republic of Belarus there was analyzed the efficiency of application of a probiotic lactic casein feed additive DKM which was developed in the Institute of Microbiology of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus. The analyzed additive contained specially selected lactic-acid bacteria with a high bioartificial potential of metabolites. In course of the experiment there was studied the consumption of fodders (milk; oats; mixed fodders) by experimental calves; dynamics of live weight gain in the beginning and at the end of the experiment; average daily weight gain. Also, there were analyzed the background indexes of blood serum of calves, as well as the indexes of blood serum of calves in a month after application of DKM additive. Research results showed that application of the feed additive DKM promoted better palatability and use of fodders and rendered positive influence on animal productivity. Also, there was marked the normalization of metabolism that was proved y the laboratory tests of blood serum.

There were presented data of morphological analysis of blood and tissues from a place of vaccine administration and organs of immune system (thymus and lien) of rats vaccinated against a canicola fever of pigs by a produced in the Republic of Belarus vaccine containing in its structure various adjuvants. The vaccination was realized in combination with immunostimulative drugs. Level of specific antibodies of rats and rabbits after immunization with the analyzed preparations as well as with and without immunostimulative drugs were analysed.
