DETERMINATION OF ACUTE TOXICITY OF ROKSATSIN
DescriptionIn this article, the authors have defined the acute toxicity of Roksatsin preparation, which represents a 20 % aqueous solution of polyhexamethylene guanidinehydrochloride (PHMG). The acute toxicity of Roksatsin in the first series of experiments was studied on white mice upon intragastric administration. In the second series of the experiments, Roksatsin was administered subcutaneously to white rats and in the third series of experiments the preparation was administered intracisternally to cows. The results of the first series of experiments showed that Roksatsin by the internal method of appointment is slightly toxic to white mice. In this experiment not been a single case of acute intoxication and death of animals. Experiments to determine the acute toxicity of the preparation for white rats were performed in triplicate. In the first series of experiment, the LD50 was 4.8 ml/kg. It is found, that the calculated coefficients LD50 for other two series were close to the first one: the second - 4.2 ml/kg and the third - 4.5 ml/kg. Therefore, the authors found that the Roksatsin preparation upon subcutaneously administration according GOST 12.1.007-76 is a low-toxic compound (4th class of danger). As a result of the third series of the experiments, it was found that the intracisternally administration of Roksatsin preparation to cows in a dose of 5 ml is not toxic to the animal organism. Intracisternal administration of Roksatsin does not have a significant impact on the morphological and biochemical indices of blood. On this basis, Roksatsin preparation with different routes of administration is low-toxic and it can be recommended for clinical researches

EFFICIENCY OF ROKSATSIN IN AEROSOL DISINFECTION OF THE LIVESTOCK BUILDINGS
DescriptionThe authors briefly describe the properties of polyhexamethyleneguanidine hydrochloride (PHMG), which refers to a broad-spectrum biocide and has antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, viruses and fungi. PHMG has a deodorizing effect, gives the treated surfaces long bactericidal effect, which can be stored depending on the surface and other external factors from 3 days to 8 months. The authors have presented data about the level of bacterial and fungal contamination of air in the dispensary before and after aerosol treatment of Roksatsin. Bacterial contamination of air dispensary determined via the sedimentation method (Koch Method), which is settling microflora (in air), under gravity, on the surface of a growth medium. For the determination of total bacteria and fungi in 1m3 of air the authors make calculations of total aerobic microbial count (TAMC) according to the formula that was proposed by V.L. Omelyanskii. Bacterial contamination of air was evaluated before disinfection. Accounting quality of aerosol disinfection performed by sedimentation microflora on Petri Dishes through 30, 60 and 120 minutes of exposition. In the analysis of the data the authors defined that Roksatsin as a disinfectant has a negative effect on pathogens, namely significantly reduced the content of pathogenic and conditionally pathogenic bacteria and fungi in the air, so it can be used for preventive and compelled aerosol disinfection of air in the livestock buildings

Description
The article contains a synthesis of modern views on the problem of ketosis and related metabolic disorders. We have given evidences of the exceptional role of hypoglycemia in the development of progressive metabolic diseases of cows during the transition period. The necessity of implementing a program for critical period with mandatory control of glycemia was substantiated

DISTRIBUTION AND SPECIES COMPOSITION OF PECTORIS AND RHODOCOCCUS
DescriptionThere are numerous reports about the possibility of sensitization to tuberculin animals when infected with pectoris and Rhodococcus and it is considered to be expedient to create one monoallergenov to differentiate allergic reactions. In this context, the spread of pectoris and Rhodococcus in nature, the general physico-chemical and biological properties of mycobacteria, increasingly emerging reports of a possible sensitization of the microorganism, require a detailed study of them in order to determine the specificity of allergy
