Abstract

We studied the effect of prebiotic hemiv on natural resistance and meat quality of broiler chickens. As a result of the conducted studies, it was found that after using the drug at a dose of 0,6 g/kg of body weight, there was an increase in the phagocytic activity of pseudoeosinophils and the bactericidal activity of blood serum by 34,3 and 22,4%, respectively, compared with the control. After the use of hemiv at a dose of 0,9 g/kg, there was also a statistically confirmed increase in the bactericidal activity of blood serum and phagocytic activity of pseudoeosinophils by 20,6 and 29,1%. At studying the effect of the drug on the quality of meat, it was found that it belongs to the mature and benign and can be eaten without restrictions.
