Abstract: 
Synthesis conditions have been established and arginin-containing iron and cobalt chelate compounds with general formula: Me(Arg)n(CH3COO)2·mH2O, where Me = Fe, Co;  Arg – neutral arginin molecule, n = 1÷3; m = 1÷4 have been synthesized. Synthesized chelates have been studied using a number of physical and chemical methods. In particular, the content has been established via trace element analysis, while individuality has been identified using melting temperature measurement and diffractographic method. According to study of qualitative solubility chelates are well soluble in water, though they are poorly soluble in organic solvents. Using the conductometric method there has been calculated the dissociation constant of chelate compound containing solutions.
On the basis of preliminary trial tests conducted with a purpose of biological activity study, there has been expressed an opinion that entry of arginin-containing iron and cobalt chelates into composition of broilers’ combined feed premixes has had a positive impact on poultry live weight gain and poultry survival rate. An opinion on the reasonability of basic tests conduction has been given in order to determine the doses of arginin-containing iron and cobalt chelate compounds optimal for broilers.
