Study of the stability of the drug «Sv» for dry hoof baths

This article presents the results of studying the stability of the drug «SV», developed at the Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution FCTRB-VNIVI, for the group prevention and treatment of diseases of the fingers and hooves of cattle by the method of dry hoof baths. He stability study of «SV» was carried out at certain time intervals (3, 6, 9 and 12 months of storage). During the experiment, we studied such quality indicators as bacterial contamination, harmlessness, determination of pH, solubility in water, tightness of packaging, mass fraction of moisture, mass fraction of ash, determination of adsorption activity by methylene blue, determination of adsorption activity by iodine and determination of adsorption activity by gelatin. Based on the studies conducted on the stability of the drug «SV» during storage for 12 months, the indicators did not exceed the acceptance criteria, which indicates that this sample is stable. Thus, the drug «SV» for dry hoof baths can be used in veterinary medicine, after further comprehensive study.
