The effect of feed additive on the base of protein hydrolysates on the clinical status of calves
This article presents materials on the production test of feed additive based on the protein hydrolyzate Abiotonk on calves of the Holstein breed raised in «Sovkhoz Golovkovo» in dairy farm «Kryukovo». Two groups of 20 calves were formed in each experimental group, the Abiotonic feed additive was soldered at a rate of 1 ml/kg live weight. In order to determine the effectiveness of the feed additive, we studied the indicators of the clinical status of calves and a biochemical and general blood test. As a result, the use of the Abiotonic feed additive at a dose of 1 ml/kg of calf live weight has been established that it does not negatively affect the physiological parameters of the clinical status of animals. The use of the abiotonic feed additive increases the average daily gain of calves by 317 gramms compared with the control group. The results of blood tests suggest a reliable stimulating effect of the Abiotonic feed supplement on metabolic processes, increasing the parameters characterizing hematopoiesis. Thus, the Abiotonic feed additive can be recommended for use by animals during the period of active growth and development of the body, to stimulate weight gain, and activate animal metabolism, and prevent anemia and hypotrophy.
