Abstract
The article presents the results of the study of the effect of mitochondrial-directed antioxidant 10-(6′-plastoquinonyl) decyltriphenylphosphonium bromide («SkQ1») on the expression of resistance genes of laying hens of the cross «Hysex brown». The supplement was fed for 7 weeks, the age of birds at the study period was 18-25 weeks. It was found that oral administration of 1 mg. «SkQ1» had a significant effect on the expression of resistance genes, while not reducing the egg productivity and live weight of poultry. The main morphological indicators of egg quality showed reliable differences in 5 indicators in the experimental group. At the same time there was no decrease in the intensity of egg production. Retention of hens in the control and experimental groups was 100 %. A significant effect of 1 mg. dosage was revealed «SkQ1» on the expression of AvBD9 and IL-8 genes.
