Abstract

The beginning of the intake of plant feed by the piglet is a serious stage in the maturation of its regulatory systems. Under these conditions, vascular hemostasis, which significantly controls the level of blood flow to tissues, is an essential element in maintaining homeostasis of a growing animal organism. Examination of 25 healthy piglets during the phase of milk and vegetable nutrition revealed a gradual decrease in the amount of peroxidation products in their blood due to increased activity of the antioxidant potential of their plasma. Healthy piglets of dairy and plant nutrition are characterized by a low level of endotheliocythemia, combined with an age-related increase in the synthesis of substances with anti-aggregation activity, antithrombin III and tissue plasminogen activators in the vascular wall. Piglets of dairy and plant nutrition are characterized by a weakening of lipid peroxidation in the liquid part of the blood, which in many respects increases the antiaggregation, anticoagulation and fibrinolytic capabilities of the vessel walls. This supports the adequacy of the vascular control of piglets at this age over hemostasis as a whole.
