Diacetofenyl selenide use in pig production

Frolovichev A.S., Troshin A.N.

Summary. Problem of developing and implementing of new products of organic selenium, with high biological activity is very important. Experimental results of studying of selenium content in loamy soils and feed for pigs are presented in the article. Authors determined the dynamics of selenium in the season. Selenium deficiency was set in fodders throughout the year. Selenium level in serum of pigs was less than 80 mcg/l, further conditions associated to anemia syndrome specific to selenium deficiency were established. Pharmacological properties of diacetofenyl selenide on sows during gestation and after farrowing, as well as influence of the preparation on blood and productivity of piglets was studied. Increase of red blood cells and hemoglobin content was marked in piglets. Preparation optimizes reproductive function of sows, shows immunomodulatory and growth promoting effect in piglets.

Key words: diacetophenyl selenide, sodium selenite, research, piglets, domestic pigs, weight gain, reproduction, immunity, red blood cells, hemoglobin, mastitis-metritis-agalactia, pharmacology.
