A hematological study was made based on 10 specimens each of the buffalofishes Ictiobus cyprinellus and I. bubalus (Catostomidae). Average results of analyses of selected blood characteristics of I. cyprinellus and I. bubalus, respectively, were: hemoglobin content, 7.8 and 8.5 g/100 ml; erythrocyte count, 1.08 and 1.28 millions/mm2; hematocrit, 34.6 and 32.9%; mean corpuscular hemoglobin, 67 and 64 μμg; and leucocyte count, 23916 and 29004 cells/mm3. Types of leucocytes noted were lymphocytes, neutrophils, "secretory granulocytes," eosinophils, and thrombocytes. No basophils were found. The secretory granulocyte is apparently derived from the neutrophil series. The status of the secretory granulocyte in buffalofishes is discussed with reference to pertinent literature.

The article presents the results of studies of morphological and biochemical parameters of blood of broiler chickens KOBB-500, patients with ornithobacteriosis, who were not treated, and sick birds, for the treatment of which were used drugs "Poledoxin" (active substance - doxycycline hyclate) and "Tilmox 25%" (active substance - tilmicosin phosphate). Studies have shown that ornithobacteriosis in broiler chickens is characterized by erythrocytopenia, hypohemoglobinemia and decreased hematocrit. In the birds of the experimental groups, which in accordance with the treatment regimen used poledoxin and tilmox 25% erythrocyte count, hemoglobin content in the blood and hematocrit at 216 h of the experiment were higher than in the control: erythrocyte count - 19 and 36%, respectively; hemoglobin content - by 17% in poultry of both experimental groups; hematocrit - by 19 and 23%, respectively (p≤0.05). In the serum proteins of patients with ornithobacteriosis of broiler chickens of the control group was found dysproteinemia, in which at 216 h of the experiment there was a decrease in total protein and albumin by 12 and 34%, respectively. At the same time there was an increase in the content of globulins by 32%. The content of total protein and albumin in the serum of poultry 2 and 3 experimental groups increased and by 216 h exceeded the control index by 24 and 33% (p≤0.05), respectively, albumin - by 56% in poultry of both experimental groups. The content of globulins in the serum of poultry of the experimental groups for the period from 24 to 216 h of the experiment was in the range of 10.72 - 11.98 g / l, while in the control - 11.32 - 15.21 g / l. In the serum of broiler chickens of the control group for the period from 24 to 216 h increased the activity of alanine aminotransferase by 14%, while in the serum of poultry of experimental groups treated with poledoxin and tilmox 25% its activity decreased by 96, 120 and 216 h was probably less than in the control. Hypocalcemia was observed in the control group of broiler chickens ornithobacteriosis, whereas in the serum of poultry 2 and 3 experimental groups treated, the total calcium content in the period from 24 to 216 h was probably higher than in the control. Hypophosphatemia was observed in the control and 2 experimental birds (poledoxine), and the inorganic phosphorus content in their serum was 216 h lower than in the experimental group 3 birds (tilmox 25% was used) by 43 and 23%, respectively. Key words: doxycycline, tilmicosin, respiratory diseases of poultry, O. Rhinotracheale, antibiotics, bioavailability.

Relevance. One of the causes of chronic disease is herpetic infection, lifelong persistence in the human body and activates the macrophage protection system, which leads to disruption of iron utilization by the cells of the hematopoietic system and the development of anemia of chronic disease. To prove the influence of herpesvirus infection on the occurrence of anemia of chronic disease.Materials and methods. The study involved 75 people suffering from herpes-viral infection. 3 groups were allocated: the frst group (25 people) received acyclovir 1 tablet (200 mg) 5 times a day, 5 days; The 2-nd group (25 people) used famvir for 1 tablet (250 mg) 2 times a day, 5 days; The third group (25 people) – famvir 1 tablet (250 mg) 2 times a day, 5 days and kagocel 2 tablets (12 mg) 3 times a day, 5 days.Result. All subjects examined at the time of treatment showed an increase in the content of IL 1β mRNK and TNF-α and a decrease in mRNK of IL 8 and IL 10; on day 14 of the study, a decrease in IL 1β mRNK and TNF-α mRNK and an increase in IL 10 mRNK. In the study of erythrocyte indices – the average volume of erythrocytes and the average hemoglobin content in erythrocyte and the parameters of iron-serum iron metabolism and the total iron binding capacity of the serum, slight deviations from the norm were obtained.Conclusions. Thus, we concluded that the cause of anemia, in addition to the lack of iron, can be chronic herpesvirus infection, and thus timely treatment of a viral infection excludes the use of ferrotherapy.


The article is devoted to the solution of an urgent problem- influence of different lighting modes on the dairy productivity of cows. 2 groups of cows with 20 heads each were formed. In control group, light in the cowshed was 50-75 Lux for a light period of 7.5 h in January to 16.5 h in June, and in experimental group - 150-200 Lux and 16 h, respectively. It was found that the intensity and duration of illumination affects physiological state, reproductive ability and milk productivity of cows. In the experimental group of cows, compared with the control group, hemoglobin content in blood increased by 4.6% (P < 0.01), red blood cells - by 20.6% (P < 0.05), total protein - by 11.2% (P < 0.001), glucose - by 39.1% (P < 0.05). There was a tendency to increase the total calcium and inorganic phosphorus in blood serum of cows of the experimental group. The level of alkaline phosphatase in blood serum of cows in the control group was 71.5% (P < 0.01) higher than that of cows in the experimental group. Milk yield per 1 cow in the experimental cowshed was 433 kg more than in the control. The cost of 1 kg of milk in the experimental group was 0.94 rubles lower, and the profitability of milk production and sales is 9.42% higher than in the control group. To increase the milk productivity of cows, it is recommended to increase light level in barns for tethered keeping to 150-200 Lux, with the duration of lighting in the winter and transition periods of year up to 16 hours per day.
