Abstract

The paper presents the results of studies of the physiological state of stallions and their reproductive function in respect of the season, and according to blood samples the mechanisms of their physiological processes are adjusted using the ultrafine metal-polymer composition “iron-copper-zinc”. According to such biochemical blood parameters of stallions as total protein and its fractions: lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and α-amylase, significant differences in the seasonal aspect were revealed. A number of features of blood morphology in connection with the season were noted. These were an increase in the concentration of erythrocytes, leucocytes, hemoglobin, eosinophils and lymphocytes in spring. An increase in the concentration of testosterone, the main populations of lymphocytes and subpopulations of T cells in the blood of stallions in the spring-summer period was established. The positive effect of the composition of nanosized metals on metabolic and enzymatic processes was revealed.

Highlights

  • Horse breeding was once one of the main directions in domestic animal husbandry

  • The purpose of the work is to identify the relationship between the physiological state of stallions and reproductive function in respect of the season, and according to the obtained blood tests to adjust the mechanisms of their physiological processes using the ultrafine metal-polymer composition "iron-copper-zinc"

  • The physiological condition of stallions was evaluated in mating campaign by the stages of application of the ultrafine metal-polymer composition “iron-copper-zinc” (UDC MPK-3K)

Summary

Introduction

Due to decrease in the number of horses and uncertainty about the further reorganization of horse farms and stud farms, the activation of mating campaign is urgent, since the yield of foals remains quite low today, slightly exceeding 60%. To increase this indicator, it is necessary to be able to adjust the reproduction process itself, directly preparing the animals for mating. The purpose of the work is to identify the relationship between the physiological state of stallions and reproductive function in respect of the season, and according to the obtained blood tests to adjust the mechanisms of their physiological processes using the ultrafine metal-polymer composition "iron-copper-zinc"
