The main purpose of agriculture and livestock industry
is important in the production in the increasing number of food for the
population and raw materials for industry. Agriculture is currently gaining
importance in the socio-economic development of the North-Kazakhstan region,
while being its priority requires addressing program- target method by farming
with the introduction of new high technology that includes the use of biotic
doses of trace elements in livestock. It should be noted that the physiology of
farm animals in biogeochemical conditions of the North Kazakhstan region has
not been studied enough, and the effect of lack of iodine on the body of cattle
has not been studied either. Trace element iodine fulfills an important
biological role in the body of the animal, ultimately affects the productivity
and quality of reproductive animals [1]. Over 90 % of iodine required for farm
animals comes from vegetable foods and forage plants. Mineral soil composition,
typical for each biogeochemical zone, determines the composition of forage
plants, especially those grown in meadows and pastures. The average content of
iodine in pasture plants in our country is 0.18 mg/kg [3]. The territory of the
North Kazakhstan region is biogeochemical province for lack of iodine. There is
not enough iodine in the water, earth, plants that grow on it , and in animals
living on its open spaces [2].
The objective of our research:
- Examine the condition of iodine deficiency at the
farm Novoishimsky rural district (North Kazakhstan region) by IFA method. -
Carry out preventive activities with the use of potassium iodide and zeolite.
For the development of preventive measures production
experiment was organized. For this purpose, two groups were matched for five
cows each. Group formed by analogy, that is, animals of the same breed, similar
age, weight, performance, conditions of feeding and keeping. [4]
The first experimental group in addition to the basic
diet received fertilizer complex consisting of 9mg of potassium iodide and 200
grams of natural zeolite. Second - served as a control.
Before the start of the experiment and after its
completion, blood samples were taken and sent to the district veterinary
research laboratory.
Determined amount of hormone thyroxine in serum by IFA
(immunosorbent analysis). In the beginning of the experience the amount of
serum in cows was: in the first group 725,00 ± 1,76, in the control group
contained iodine 645,33 ± 7,26 nmol/l.
Comparing our results with published data, we can
conclude that before feeding trace elements in blood serum of experimental
animals contained a reduced amount of total iodine. Throughout the period of
experiments total iodine content in the blood of the first and second
experimental groups gradually increased from 725,0 ± 1,76, 645,33 ± 7,26 nmol/l
and reached a maximum value at the end of the experience (952,7 ± 2 , 07 ,
947,0 ± 2,12 nmol/l respectively). Of the above it can be concluded that under
the conditions of iodine deficiency in economy of Novoishimsky rural district
(North Kazakhstan region) for early diagnosis by IFA is suitable and preventive
measures using potassium iodide are effective. For the diagnosis of iodine
deficiency recommended the use of the test system "T4-IFA-VECTOR-BEST
" and is necessary to introduce in industrial activity in the economy in
the North Kazakhstan region .
