Abstract

The article contains results of the research on the influence of "Sporothermin" probiotics and "Chiktonik" vitamin-amino acid complex on the processes of free-radical oxidation of lipids in the muscle tissue of fish. Three groups of sexually mature African catfish were formed. The first test group received "Sporothermin" probiotic at a dose of 2 g / kg of feed. The second group received "Chiktonik" vitamin-amino acid complex at a dose of 2 ml / kg of feed, the third group was the control and received only LimKorm "Som" brand feeds. All groups were tested for malondialdehyde content (MDA) in three months. In the control group, the content of MDA of males was 7948.71 mmol / 100 g of tissue, females - 8119.65 mmol / 100 g of tissue. Fish reared with the probiotics had the lowest levels of lipid peroxidation. Males had the MDA level of 3931.62 mmol / 100 g of tissue, and females - 4273.5 mmol / 100 g of tissue. As for the second group, which received “Chiktonik” vitamin-amino acid complex, the MDA content was lower than in the control, but higher than in the group which received the probiotics and was 4358.97 mmol / 100 g of tissue (males), and 4957.26 mmol / 100 g of tissue (females). It can be concluded that the usage of "Sporothermin" probiotics and "Chiktonik" vitamin-amino acid complex in the diet of African sharptooth catfish leads to a decrease of free radical processes, reduces the activity of lipid peroxidation, stimulates the antioxidant system, provides resistance to oxidative stress, revitalizing and increasing the vitality of the organism fish.
