Abstract
The problem of obtaining safe livestock products is closely related to a decrease in the accumulation of ecotoxicants in it. With the expansion of anthropogenic biogeochemical zones, the amount and number of simultaneously detectable toxic elements and compounds increases. The danger of cadmium and lead for animals and humans is associated with their high toxicity, the ability to accumulate in the body and have a negative effect even after a considerable time after intake. One of the ways to reduce the accumulation of heavy metals (HM) in livestock products is the introduction of feed additives (FA) into the diet, the components of which, participating in metabolism, reduce the negative effect of toxicants on the animal body and contribute to their elimination. In laboratory conditions, the efficiency of feed additive «Phytodoc neuro» at a dose of 4 g/kg of feed was studied to reduce the accumulation of cadmium and lead when they enter the body of animals at doses of 5 and 50 mg/kg of feed, respectively. The data obtained showed that the introduction of feed additive «Phytodoc neuro» into the diet with the simultaneous intake of HM did not lead to a decrease in the accumulation of cadmium in the body of white rats, the lead content significantly decreased only in the bones and spleen.
