It was found that the disadvantage of surgical castration is the risk of bleeding, the development of purulent inflammatory process (edges of the surgical wound, scrotal tissues, stump, common vaginal membrane), as well as intra- and postoperative hernias, which are accompanied by prolapse of the omentum, intestines, and bladder. The low incidence of these complications is offset by the high death rate caused by them. A relatively high level of cryptorchidism was established on the farm, among which bilateral was 27.6%. As a result of the use of immunological castration, in comparison with surgical castration, and with non-castrated boars, the average daily gains were increased, the fattening period was reduced and feed costs were reduced against the background of feed conversion increase by 14 – 27%. The use of Improvac® (Pfizer Ltd) led to better assimilation of feed, an increase in the amount of meat on the carcass, in particular, lean meat by 12 – 16%, lumbar depth, the protein content in meat and a decrease of the fat percentage and fat thickness, eliminating specific odor, and reduction in the fattening period, as well as costs for feeding. In particular, compared to non-castrated boars, the weight of chilled half carcasses increased by 1.2 times (P < 0.05). Immunological castration led to atrophy of the testicles: their weight, length and width were smaller compared to non-castrated boars, which again confirms a decrease in the level of boars’ sex hormones. It is important to use Improvac® in breeding boars that have exhausted their potential, eliminating the need to keep them for about three months to reduce their meat and lard smell. Reducing the period of disappearance of the odor of products obtained from boars led to a reduction in the cost of feeding, maintenance, and veterinary care. Production indicators justify the economic feasibility of using immunological castration with Improvac® in order to obtain additional income, given the absence of probable complications associated with the conventional surgical procedure.","PeriodicalId":33793,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Applied Veterinary Medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70175072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the analyzed data, a modern concept of physiological signaling systems in cattle fetuses with the participation of Fc-γ receptors has been developed. These results indicated age-related modulation of FcγR intestinal cells expression during the entire fetal period of cattle, and the dynamics of changes in the content of polypeptides with different molecular weights that exhibit Fc-γ-binding activity in the basolateral and apical regions of the enterocyte’s plasma membrane and have certain characteristic features for each groups of receptors for IgG. It has been proven that the regulation of FcγR expression by plasma membrane of jejunal enterocytes in cattle during the fetal period of ontogenesis is controlled by mechanisms associated with fetal development. The obtained research results and their in-depth analysis made it possible to propose a scientific concept on the physiological functions of FcγR during the fetal period of cattle ontogenesis. In particular, they translocate signals by the mother-placenta-fetus chain, form one of the key signaling systems for regulating the development of enterocytes, recognize specific signals from immunoglobulins and antigens, play an important role in the transcytosis and recycling of IgG from the amniotic fluid into fetal circulation, and form the immune mechanisms of the fetus for the intrauterine functioning body adaptation and prepare it for antigenic pressure after birth. So, the expression modulation, localization and identification of polypeptides on the plasma membrane that exhibit Fc-γ-binding activity, makes it possible to form a signaling system and control the development of barrier and immune functions in the fetus with the participation of FcγR.","PeriodicalId":33793,"journal":{"name":"Theoretical and Applied Veterinary Medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70175178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of the experiment was to investigate how “Humilid” affects carbohydrate metabolism in rats; to study and analyze the effect of the humic nature biologically active substance «Humilid» on metabolic processes. In the work we used biochemical methods for studying the blood of experimental rats. Adult male white rats were taken for the experiment, from which four groups were formed. The experiment lasted three weeks, during which the animals from the first experimental group received daily in addition to the main feed an aqueous solution of feed additive «Humilid» at dose 5 mg / kg of body weight of the active substance, and had free access to water. Rats of the second and third groups were injected with alloxan as a single intraperitoneal injection. The rats of the third group additionally received an aqueous solution of feed additive «Humilid». It was identified that “Humilid” has an antioxidant activity, which may be one of the mechanisms of its antidiabetic action, as it is known that alloxan causes free radical damage to β-cells with weak antioxidant protection. The use of a biologically active feed additive of humic nature was found to have a hypoglycemic effect in both healthy animals as well as in rats with alloxan-induced diabetes mellitus. It was found that the use of “Humilid” in rats enhances energy processes in their bodies of experimental animals. There was a decrease in glucose content in rats from second group by 11.9% (P ≤ 0.001) compared with the control one. At the same time, the glucose content in animals from third and fourth groups was higher by 35.9% (P ≤ 0.001) and 20% (P ≤ 0.001) higher than in animals from the control one. The insulin concentration in the blood of rats from the second group was 7.4% higher (P ≤ 0.05) compared to the animals from first group. The concentration of C-peptide was within the reference values.

Such a need can only be met by including fats in the diet. Fat is the main and most efficient source of feed energy, but at the same time, one of the most expensive feed component. Using a fat emulsifier is an increase in the quality of the obtained product and a decrease in its cost. The addition of synthetic emulsifiers is a relatively new opportunity to increase fats’ active surface compared to other widely used feed additives. This reduces the cost for oil in the feed and also a chance to reduce feed total cost. By increasing fats’ active surface, emulsifiers expand the action of lipases and promote micelles formation. Higher the fat percentage in the diet, lower the percentage of its absorption. In high-energy diets without the use of complex emulsifiers, from 36% to 70% of the fat introduced into the feed is not absorbed and is excreted from the body. The beneficial effect of emulsifiers is that the digestibility of fat decreases, and it grows with an increase in the fat level in the diet. An assessment of the effect of the «Natufactant» feed additive on the growth rates of young pigs has been carried out. The maintenance and feeding of pigs were carried out in accordance with the technology adopted on the farm. The nutritional value of the main diet that is used on the farm, as well as after the inclusion of the feed additive «Natufactant», were determined. To conduct research according to the principle of analogs were taking into account the breed, live weight, and general physiological state, two groups of animals of a large white pig breed were created, 25 animals in each, with a live weight of 28 kg. The first group served as a control, and in addition to the main diet, the multicomponent emulsifier «Natufactant» was administered to the piglets of the research group at a dose of 250 g/t of feed, which was given together with the feed once per day. It was found that high average daily gains were obtained from animals to which «Natufactant» was added at the rate of 250 g per 1 ton of compound feed from the first day of the experiment and for 60 days in a row. As a result of the production check, it was found that the introduction of a feed additive into the diet of young pigs made it possible to increase the gross increase in animals’ live weight in comparison with the control, by 10.7 centners with the same level of feeding. New influence aspects of the fat emulsifier usage on the pigs’ physiological state and productivity were disclosed. It has been proven that the inclusion of the «Natufactant» feed additive into the animals’ diet stimulates the digestion processes and assimilation of basic nutrients, improves their physiological state, and increases the average daily weight gain of pigs by 15.3%.
