Analysis of the use of ready-made Expert hepatic diets for adult cats liver care company Miratorg

This  work  is  devoted  to  studying  the effect  of  Expert  Hepatic  ready-made  diets for  adult  cats  liver  care  company  MIRATORG  on  cats  in  the  complex  therapy  of hepatopathy. An important component in the complex treatment of cats with liver diseases is the use of complete diets. The purpose of these diets is to replenish energy and nutrients to maintain the body's needs and ensure the regeneration of hepatocytes to maintain liver  function.  This  can  be  achieved  if  the diet is easily digestible and has high palatability, high energy density and modified protein  content.  In  the  course  of  the  studies, biochemical blood parameters were studied, reflecting the condition of the liver in cats, which used ready-made Expert Hepatic diets for  adult  cats’ liver  care  from  the  MIRATORG company in the complex treatment of hepatopathy.  The  study  was  conducted  on the  basis  of  the  Multifunctional  Veterinary Center "SPbGUVM" in the period from February 2022 to October 2023. The study was carried out on cats of different breeds aged 6-9 years. The study revealed that at the beginning of the experiment, all experimental animals had increased indicators characterizing the condition of the liver. At the same time,  the  activity  of  the  cytolysis  marker enzymes AlAT and AST was higher than the upper limit of the reference values for this animal species by an average of 1.5 times. A less pronounced increase in activity was observed  in  alkaline  phosphatase,  the  main marker of cholestasis. These changes corresponded to a moderate increase in the content of total bilirubin. By the end of the experiment, a significant decrease in all studied parameters was observed. The level of bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase was at the upper limit of the reference values for this animal species. The activity of aminotransferases significantly decreased, but still remained above normal.
