Influence of a complex of biologically active substances on hematological indicators of Vietnamese belly pigs

Vietnamese bellied pigs are of food value and are used in model laboratory studies. The aim of the work was to study the effectiveness of the use of a complex of feed additives on hematological blood parameters in young pigs of the Vietnamese bellied breed. According to the principle of pair-analogues, 2 groups of three-month-old piglets (n=20) were formed, where the experimental group, in addition to the main diet, received a complex of biologically active substances containing probiotics, vitamins and succinic acid. The complex was asked for 7 days with a 20-day interval three times. After the third cycle, hematological studies were carried out using an automatic veterinary hematological analyzer Hemascreen Vet 5diff, ESR - by the Panchenkov method. Blood was taken in the morning on an empty stomach from the central ear vein. The results were subjected to statistical processing. On the basis of hematological studies, the piglets of the control group revealed a low content of platelets; leukocytosis accompanied by neutropenia, lymphocytosis and monocytosis; higher ESR, lower hemoglobin and hematocrit. In the experimental group of piglets, an increase in the concentration of erythrocytes, hemoglobin, hematocrit and platelets by 7.26; 6.72; 14.58 and 231.32%, respectively. The results allow us to conclude that the BAS complex has a positive effect on blood composition, hematopoiesis, reducing the risk of anemia, oxidative stress and increasing the nonspecific resistance of piglets.
