THE INFLUENCE OF A COMPLEX APIPREPARATION “APHRODITE” ON BLOOD PARAMETERS OF PREGNANT COWS
The findings show that in deep pregnant cows of the Red Steppe breed changes of biochemical values of blood were mild; however, the acid-base imbalance, disturbance in mineral and protein metabolism, and a decrease in the carotene status were detected. The use of the apipreparation “Aphrodite” for prophylactic purposes contributed to the increase in the calcium level by 1.11 times, immunoglobulin M by 1.28-1.48 times, and lysozyme activity by 14.46%. Therefore, this preparation showed a pronounced immune stimulating effect.
