Abstract. The problem of iodine saturation of livestock products for residents of most regions of our country requires a detailed study. One of the factors is the obtaining of livestock products enriched with organic iodine. The study of the degree of accumulation of iodine in the muscle tissue of rabbits at the background of the use of liposomal form of antioxidants enriched with organic iodine (LFA) was the main purpose of the research. Methods. An experiment on rabbits of the California breed were used. The first control group received the main diet (MD) in the form of a granular mixture. The experimental second group was given LFA based on White sea laminarias at the rate of 250 g per ton of feed mixture of MD. The third experimental group was injected with MD the LFA with Black sea Cystoseira. The formation of meat indicators, chemical analysis of muscle tissue, the level of accumulation of trace elements, including iodine in muscle tissue was studied indicators. Results. Based on the somatometric method of evaluating rabbits, it was found that the young animals of the experimental groups form a more eirisomus-type body (from 60 to 70 % of the total population). All indicators of the interactions of somatic parameters in the young groups II and III positive and highly significant correlation, and the correlation index of the density of the body correlated positively with body length (r = +0,67, p ≤ 0.01), chest girth (r = +0,86, p ≤ 0.001), length of loin (r = +0,61, p ≤ 0,01), the length of the backside (r = +0.71, p ≤ 0.001) and head measurement (r = +0,57, p ≤ 0.05). An improvement of the indicators of slaughter of experimental groups of young animals was stated. The slaughter weight increases by 12.2 %, and the mass of internal organs responsible for digestion by 4.5–43.8 %. A percentage of increase in muscle tissue during boning by 10.0–15.9 % and a decrease in the proportion of low-value parts in the carcass-bone tissue by 8.6–9.9 % was stated. Iodine in the average sample of muscle tissue of the experimental groups increases by 91.8 mcg (p ≤ 0.05) in animals of the second group and by 113.3 mcg (p ≤ 0.05) of the third group.
