Succinic acid in sable breeding of the republic of Sakha (Yakutia)

Abstract

Sable breeding is a new promising branch of animal husbandry in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). Since the end of 2019, caged sables have been imported to the Pokrovskoye Zverokhozyaystvo (eng: Pokrovsk Animal Farm) and MUE "Zolotinka" from the Irkutsk Oblast and the Republic of Tatarstan. The natural and climatic features of our republic differ significantly from other regions of Russia, and there are undoubtedly differences in the provision of animal nutrition to animal breeding enterprises. The initial goal is to increase the survival rate of imported breeding sables for their further reproduction. In the article, the author conducted research on the effect of adaptogen on the survival of cellular sables. An environmentally safe biologically active substance was used - succinic acid at a dose of 40 mg per 1 animal 1 time per day. In the I and II experiments, the safety in the experimental groups was higher by 5.56-40.0%. Evidence of ongoing stress in sables that are in the period of adaptation to new climatic and feeding conditions is leukopenia in the blood of animals of the control group. In the blood of animals of the experimental group, the content of leukocytes, erythrocytes and hemoglobin was within the physiological norm and the growth of leukocytes was noted, which indicates a positive effect of the adaptogen. The results of the blood test indicate the ongoing process of adaptation of sables, as well as an increase in the nonspecific resistance of experimental sables under the influence of succinic acid.
