Tabatskaia A.G., Babkina T.N.

Summary. Ration, mineral content in fodders and digestibility of animals change depending on region and season. Lack of macronutrients in feed reflects in their content in the blood. Low levels of calcium in the soil, water, feed and blood were identified during the clinical examination of camels. Biochemical researches of blood of camels set calcium-phosphorus balance of 1.39:1, that gave grounds to attribute studied farm in Orlovskii district of Rostov region to biogeochemical calcium-poor province. Reduced amount of vitamin E was noted according to the content of vitamins in the blood of camels, so authors raised the level of vitamin E by using granuvit E, as it is considered to be the most appropriate form of tocopherol for camel feeding, because of their content. Use of feed additive tricalcium phosphate and tricalcium phosphate feed additive with granuvit E in two experimental groups at infringement of mineral metabolism in camels restored calcium-phosphorus balance in the organism, improves mineral, protein and vitamin metabolism. Use of feed additive tricalcium phosphate and tricalcium phosphate with granuvit provides not only therapeutic effect expressed in the normalization of physiological parameters in the organism of camels, but also is cost-effective, cause its amount at infringement of mineral metabolism in camels with tricalcium is 10.61 rubles on 1 rub. and tricalcium phosphate with granuvit E – 8.92 rubles. 1 rub. of expenses.

Keywords: camel, Bactrian camel, metabolism, macro- and microelements, calcium, phosphorus, calcium-phosphorus balance, feed additive, tricalcium phosphate, granuvit E.
