“…Compared with the control group, significantly higher increment was determined in experimental groups II and III. Kamel et al (2020) determined a positive influence on antioxidant properties of the organism, morphological and biochemical parameters of increment of rabbits fed with a complex of supplements that included zinc, and those results are also coherent with the results of our experiment.…”

Impaired metabolism of mineral substances in the conditions of industrial rabbit breeding may cause decrease in increment of live mass, reduction of immunity, mass morbidity and death of animals. In our experiment, we studied the efficiency of using a mineral mixture to prevent the disorders in the metabolism of rabbits according to changes in morphologic, biochemical parameters and antioxidant status of blood, chemical composition of blood plasma and increments in body weight compared to the control group of animals. For the studies, we formed four groups of white New Zealand rabbits, each comprising six individuals aged 70 days with mean body weight equaling 1.99 kg. In group I, the rabbits received an aqueous form of a mixture of glauconite, succinic acid, humic and fulvic acids and lactates of zinc, manganese, cuprum, cobalt and iron with water, rabbits of group II were given a dry form of a mixture of glauconite, succinic acid, humic and fulvic acids and lactates of zinc, manganese, cuprum, cobalt and iron with fodder, and the rabbits of group III were intramuscularly injected with butanol fraction of humic acids. The experiment lasted for 21 days. The results of the experiment indicate that the most effective prophylaxis of malfunctions of mineral metabolism in white New Zealand rabbits aged 70–95 was dry mixture of glauconite, succinic acid, humic and fulvic acids and lactates of zinc, manganese, cuprum, cobalt and iron with fodder (group II), which was given once a day for 21-day period. We determined a positive effect of biologically active supplement on the parameters of hematopoiesis(1.25 times significantly higher level of hemoglobin and 1.14 times higher number of erythrocytes), metabolism of proteins (1.54 times significantly higher content of albumins), mineral substances (significantly higher content of inorganic phosphorus – by 1.17 times, calcium by 2.18 times, manganese by 1.39 times, zinc by 1.50 times, iron by 1.39 times and cuprum by 1.49 times), functional condition of the liver (2.04 times lower activity of gamma-glutamyltransferase), the state of the antioxidant system (lowest catalase activity) and energy of rabbits’ growth (1.20-fold increment in body weight). The results of our study indicate that using a dry form of the mixture of glauconite, succinic acid, humic and fulvic acids and lactates of zinc, manganese, cuprum, cobalt and iron with fodder is an efficient method of preventing malfunctioning of mineral metabolism in rabbits.

To solve the problem of liquid-phase synthesis of nano-ZnO, a photocatalytic performance study was proposed. In this study, the microwave homogeneous precipitation method was used to add different types and amounts of surfactants. The synthesis of nano-zinc oxide was controlled by changing the reaction system conditions. The photocatalytic properties of nano-zinc oxide for degrading three water-soluble dyes were preliminarily studied and discussed. The results show that the photocatalytic performance of nano-ZnO is closely related to its size, morphology, specific surface area, and even crystallographic direction.

“…The formation of ROS is another effect of heat stress, which damages proteins, DNA, phospholipid membranes, and other macromolecules, causing lipid peroxidation and cellular disruption [2,22]. A depressed mitochondrial respiratory chain leads to ROS produced at a rate that exceeds the capacity of the cell to neutralize them [2].…”

A major environmental stressor for the poultry industry is heat stress, which results in substantial economic losses. Heat stress has recently garnered increasing public awareness and concern for its adverse effects on poultry welfare. Several physiological changes happen under heat stress, including oxidative stress, acid-base imbalance, and immunosuppression, leading to increased mortality and decreased feed efficiency, body weight, feed intake, and egg production. Reduced nutrient intake is a significant contributor to the reduction in growth performance in heat-stressed animals, perhaps because they consume less feed to reduce heat production. Hence, heat stress can be attenuated in poultry using several different strategies, each with varying degrees of effectiveness. Nanotechnology strategies have gained more attention and are found to reduce heat stress's detrimental effects. Nanotechnology focuses on creating materials with nano-sized particles that have improved physical, chemical, and biological properties. Also, nanotechnology can be used in poultry production to improve the ability of birds to absorb nutrients and, in turn, increase growth performance, nutrient digestion, and productivity. Therefore, this review provides scientific evidence regarding the adverse effects of high ambient temperatures on poultry health and performance and potential nanoparticle approaches to mitigate those detrimental effects and their challenges.
