Abstract
This paper presents a study of the effect of the feed additive «Abiotonic» on the indicators of egg and
meat productivity when applied to laying hens. It was found that with the additional introduction
of this additive into the standard diet of poultry, the content of nonessential amino acids in their
meat is 10% higher compared to the same parameters in the meat of chickens of the control group,
the content of partially nonessential amino acids is by 8,5%, and of irreplaceable amino acids is by
6,7%. In addition, in the meat of laying hens, which used the feed additive «Abiotonic», the content of
selenium (Se) is 29,4% higher than in the meat of birds of the control group, and iron (Fe) – by 20%.
The average daily gain in live weight of the birds in the experimental group was 3,6 g more than
in the control hens.
Microbiological research made it possible to establish that poultry meat, regardless of the introduction
of the feed additive «Abiotonik», meets the established requirements and is safe for human
consumption.
«Abiotonic», in addition, significantly improves the egg production of birds. It was found that the
weight of eggs with the introduction of this feed additive in the diet in addition to the compound
feed increased by an average of 1,2 g, and the egg production increased by 23 eggs in 7 days.
