Description
Summary:This research considers the use of the sorption-probiotic supplement Biopinnular in the amount of 0.5 and 1.0 % of the dry matter in the diets of calves of the dairy period. The results allows us to correct the microbiocenosis in the in the digestive tract by suppressing the development of pathogenic microflora and increased reproduction of Lacto- and Bifido bacteria. The studied supplement also contributes to deeper fermentation of fodder mass during digestion in the rumen, which is manifested in an increase in active acidity (pH), cellulolytic activity of bacteria, VFA content as the main product of carbohydrate fermentation, as well as enhanced ammonia-binding function of microflora, which led to better energy and protein availability of their body. This is confirmed by indicators of the morphological and biochemical status of the blood of calves, manifested in a real increase in their red blood cells, hemoglobin, protein and protein fractions. All this was confirmed by the intensity of their live weight gain, accompanied by large average daily (by 8.83 and 23.70 %, respectively) and relative (by 1.63 and 3.86 %) weight gains and smaller (by 0.44 and 0.64) EFU costs per unit of live weight gain. A more pronounced biological effect is observed when using a feed supplement at a dose of 1.0 % of the dry matter of the diet.
