Intake mercury lead and arsenic with feeds and their accumulation (bioconcentration) in cattle and sheep organism

Currently, the issues of the safety of plant-based feed in terms of the content of ecotoxicants remain relevant and are directly related to the intensification of the agro-industrial complex and ensuring the food security of the country. Thus, when assessing the possibility of using plant feeds, great importance is paid to monitoring the content of such ecotoxicants as toxic elements, pesticides, pyrene-free, radionuclides and others. The accumulation of ecotoxicants on the territory of agricultural lands determines the need for regular monitoring of their content, and in polluted territories - the use of a system of agrotechnical and agrochemical measures for their detoxification. The main danger of ecotoxicants lies in their entry into the human body and animals through food, including plant origin, and accumulative capacity. In this regard, issues related to the study of the content of ecotoxicants in feed and plants of agricultural lands, assessment of the degree of pollution of agroecosystems have significance and relevance.

“…In this regard, it is rational to pay more attention to the study of detoxifying and biologically active substances that have been processed to reduce the natural level of ecotoxicants of radiation and chemical nature, and substances of artificial origin obtained synthetically, containing minimal amounts of toxic and ballast components. Modified and synthetic zeolites and clays (for example, montmorillonite, bentonite, amadeite), preparations based on amorphous silicon dioxide, products of chitin processing, pectins and other sorptiondetoxifying and biologically active substances are also of considerable interest [13].…”

The article is devoted to the control of ecotoxicants content in mineral and organic substances of natural and artificial origin used in the production of feed additives and pharmacological veterinary agents. In the context of the growing technogenic load on the environment, the probability of detecting increased background levels of natural and technogenic ecotoxicants in mineral and organic raw materials for the production of feed additives and veterinary products increases significantly. In this regard, more attention should be paid to the study of substances of artificial origin with a minimum content of toxic and ballast components, as well as substances that have undergone technological processing to reduce their natural level of ecotoxicants. According to modern data, amorphous silicon dioxide is an effective, safe, economically available sorbing agent and it should be considered as a promising sorption-detoxifying agent for application under the influence of xenobiotics that differ in the toxicological action mechanism on the animal organism.

“…An analysis of the level of toxicants contamination of certain links within the trophic chain "soil -feed -animal's body -livestock products" was implemented. A method has been proposed for calculating the coefficients of substances transfer along the food chain to the animal's organs to control the quality of livestock products [11].…”

The trophic chain, which manifests the correlation at nutritional level between various macro- and microorganisms, is an important factor of the ecosystem; it can show the migration of various substances within the chain “soil — water — plant — animals”. The trophic chain in Borgoy depression area was studied due to the profound correlation between the compositional characteristics of the soil and pronounced organoleptic features of meat of the sheep that feed on grass in this area. For the experiments, control and experimental samples of soil, water, plants and mutton meat were examined. The samples taken near the saline lake within the Borgoy depression on the west of Beloozersk village served as an experimental sample. The samples taken 30 km from the salt lake near Petropavlovsk village in the Republic of Buryatia served as control sample. Experiments have shown that the soil of the Borgoy depression is a saline soil, with a depth of the salt horizon of 0–30 cm, and the salt belongs to chloride-sulfate-soda type of salinity. It is noted that the saline soil is characterized by a much higher content of carbonates, chlorides and cations of sodium, potassium and magnesium. Correlation was found between the isotopic composition in soil, vegetation and the raw meat materials. More profound certain organoleptic features of Borgoy mutton were noted. It’s highly probable that this fact is associated with the peculiarities of the mineral, chemical, and amino acid compositions of meat of the livestock that lives in the pastures of the Borgoy depression, characterized by saline soils. Despite the increased content of heavy metals such as lead and copper in the soil, data on sheep muscle tissue showed that all values of toxic elements content are within the permissible concentration range. The transfer of heavy metals from the soil to the aboveground part of plants is hindered by the underground root part, which serves as barrier.
