The content of saturated fatty acids in the plasma of goats depending on the tone of the autonomic nervous system

In the regulation of homeostasis, the tone of the autonomic nervous system plays a key role, in the regulation of the metabolism of organic substances, which will affect the indicators of the fatty acid composition of the blood. As a result, the profile of saturated fatty acids can affect the nutritional value of dairy products. According to the results of a chromatographic study, the influence of the tone of the autonomic nervous system on the content of saturated fatty acids: caproic, capric, lauric, myristic, pentadecanoic, palmitic, and arachinic fatty acids was established. Caproic acid relative to the experimental group of normotonics has high indicators in sympathotonic 1.42 ± 0.06 (Р ≤ 0.001) and vagotonic 0.71 ± 0.08 (Р ≤ 0.001). Capric acid is 76 % (Р ≤ 0.001) lower in the content of animals with vagotonia and 9 % (Р ≤ 0.05) in goats with sympathotonia compared to normotonia. Lauric acid in the experimental group of vagotonics is 84 % (Р ≤ 0.001) more and 22 % (Р ≤ 0.05) less in sympathotonics compared to normotonics. Compared to animals with normotonia, myristic acid has high values in goats with sympathotonia by 22 % (Р ≤ 0.05) and with vagotonia by 82 % (Р ≤ 0.001). Pentadecanoic acid is 66 % less (Р ≤ 0.05) in sympathotonics and 29 % more in vagotonics (Р ≤ 0.01) compared to the experimental group of normotonic. Compared to goats with normotonia, palmitic acid has high indicators of animals with vagotonia by 6 % (Р ≤ 0.001) and low indicators with sympathotonia by 4 % (Р ≤ 0.05). Arachidonic acid in sympathotonic had the highest content by 38 % (Р ≤ 0.001) in comparison with normotonic. Considering the total content of saturated fatty acids in the blood plasma of goats during the chromatographic study, a regularity was established. The experimental group of vagotonic had the highest levels of fatty acids among other animals. Sympathotonic drugs mostly had a lower percentage content.
