According to the Federal Waste Classification Catalogue swine manure and slurry are classified as hazardous wastes of class 3. When stored these wastes emit various gases into the atmosphere including greenhouse gases. It is possible to solve this problem by using a chemical approach. For binding pollutants of acidic nature it is proposed to use sodium hypochlorite showing the properties of bases, while for the substances having basic properties it is possible to use sulfuric acid. The distinctive feature of this method is the technology of using the wastes of chemical industry. This paper proposes and justifies the technological scheme of the chemical method for cleaning the air polluted by emissions from industrial pig enterprises. The research was performed under laboratory conditions, taking into account the technological specifics of pig industry. In the course of the study, gravimetric and potentiometric methods were used. The object of the study was native manure obtained from 4-month-old pigs. In the experiment, we used waste sulfuric acid and alkaline solution of sodium hypochlorite produced By "HaloPolymer Kirovo-Chepetsk". The handbook of best available methods in pig industry recommends using low-waste technologies, while it is possible to use waste products from local chemical enterprises for recycling agricultural waste. The technological solution will make it possible to reduce the concentration of odorigenic substances in the air of livestock premises, to eliminate odors from ventilation emissions, to reduce the toxicity of manure effluent and to process toxic fresh pig manure into granular organic fertilizer. The introduction of this scheme into industrial pig farming will dramatically reduce the amount of malodorous animal waste, significantly reduce odor pollution and improve the environmental situation in the areas adjacent to pig farms.
The characteristics of the starting material and its active principles are given, which made it possible to scientifically substantiate the qualitative and quantitative composition of the prescription formula of a new specialized product. It is presented in the following biologically active additive form with directed functional properties, mg per one 0.6 g capsule: hydroxyl-cinnamic acids (kaftaric, chlorogenic, chicory), not less than 1.5; vitamin C – 60; rutine – 30; glycyrrhizic acid, not less than 2; zinc – 2.5; selenium – 0.0065. The hygienic quality of the developed product is shown, following regulated indicators of nutritional value defining its functional orientation are determined, mg/1 capsule: rutin – 30 (24-36); ascorbic acid – 60 (48-72); zinc – 2.5 (2.0 – 3.0); hydroxycinnamic acids, not less than 1.5; glycyrrhizic acid – 2.0. The regulated production parameters, which ensure the preservation of biologically active components of the formulation, are determined. The use of gelatin capsules allows combining prescription ingredients, protecting the contents from the effects of adverse factors, providing the necessary delivery speed to the target cell and localizing the action. Clinical trials of the effectiveness and functional properties of the developed product have been carried out by including it in the diet of children with acute respiratory diseases, such as bronchitis and pneumonia. The prescription of diet therapy provided an earlier return to normal life, cough and wheezing, swelling and hyperemia of the nasopharynx stopped faster. Research materials indicate the activation of immunity, increasing the body’s resistance to infection. The results obtained indicate the advisability of including the phytocomplex in the complex therapy of considered patients, and also using it as a prophylactic for weakened children.
The chemical processes occurring in the animal body under pathological conditions are of interest to researchers. The objective of the research was to study the indicators of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant activity in horses infested with helminthiases and treated with anthelmintic paste with an antioxidant. The study has proved the role of parasitic infestation in accelerating the processes of free radical oxidation, which is manifested by a decrease in the light sum of radicals (36.62-39.21), the maximum luminous intensity (6.13-6.98) and antioxidant activity (5.65-6.2) at the start of the research. Chronic invasion increases the concentration of under-oxidized products up to 38.59, and the rate of initiating free radical oxidation – up to 6.95, the values of antioxidant activity being stably low (5.51-5.91). An important role in the regulation of lipid peroxidation in horses during helminthiases, as well as in the process of deworming, is played by the antioxidants contained in anthelmintic preparations. The antioxidant santohin included as a compound in the «Alezan» preparation suppresses enhanced peroxidation and activates the antioxidant protection of the body, which is reflected in a decrease in the light sum of the radicals to as low as 26.73, a maximum luminous intensity to – 3.76, and an increase in antioxidant activity – up to 7.16.
Parasitic invasions in horses often cause metabolic disorders and have a negative impact on their health and performance. The purpose of this research was to study the processes of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant protection in horse helminthiases, as well as following the deworming with a drug containing the antioxidant santoquine. The intensity of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant protection was determined in horses with different degrees of invasion by concentrations of malondialdehyde and ceruloplasmin accumulated in the blood. The studies have revealed that the concentration of malondialdehyde, the end product of free radical oxidation of cell membrane phospholipids, depends on the intensity of infestation with intestinal nematodes. In horses infested with paraskaris and intestinal strongylata, a significant accumulation of malondialdehyde was by 18.2% higher as compared to uninfected animals. The level of ceruloplasmin was significantly lower – by 21.8% in animals with a moderate degree of invasion as compared to clinically healthy animals. To neutralize free radicals the antioxidant santoquine was used. Effective deworming by means of using santoquine reduced the intensity of lipid peroxidation processes, which resulted in a significant decrease in the concentration of malondialdehyde by 22.1% and an increase in the level of ceruloplasmin against the background of the lower rate of free radical oxidation by 25.8%.
