Peculiarities of changes in the interrelationships of basic metabolic processes in young chickens during transovarial glutathione administration

Abstract

It is known that the intensity of metabolic processes largely depends on the realization of their interrelationships, with a positive correlation with the growth, development and realization of productive qualities of the individual. It is important to note that it is impossible to increase the metabolic intensity against the background of depletion of antioxidant resources. Thus, the transovarian use of glutathione at optimal concentrations led to an increase in aerobic glycolysis and a tendency to activation of transamination enzymes, within reference values, intensification of mineral metabolism, which plays an important role in the maintenance of homeostasis. The fixed changes obviously were more positive for dynamically developing organism, as the received youngsters had not only higher viability during all period of embryogenesis, but also quality on a number of indicators. At the same time, it is important to note a fixed tendency to a certain depletion of protein and lipid metabolism in the absence of differences in body weight of the chickens from the experimental and control groups, which obviously points to the need for additional administration of glutathione at a later period of embryogenesis and requires further investigation. It is an important fact that the same trend was recorded when using the biostimulant in the embryogenesis of quail.
