Abstract
The article presents the results of studies on the effect of Prostimul on the immune status of piglets under techno-logical stress caused by their weaning and transferring to an industrial pig-breeding compleх for growing. It was found that the application of the drug was accompanied by an increase in nonspecific humoral and cellular immunity and indicators of protein metabolism during the adaptation of piglets to new conditions of living. This is associated with the presence in the drug composition of recombinant porcine interferons alpha and beta that possess the immune modulating activity, as well as vitamins A, E and C increasing antioxidant and immune status. The results obtained allow us to recommend the drug "Prostimul" for a widespread application in industrial pig breeding during critical periods of rearing piglets to improve the immune status of the animal body.
