Abstract:
Synthesis conditions are established and boron chelate compounds are synthesized with general formulas [(H3BO3)x·gl]·nH2O, (where x=1-3; gl-glutamine acid, n=1;2) (I) and [(H3BO3)x·Mt]·2H2O (II) (where x = 1; 2; Mt-methionine). The composition, individuality, and qualitative solubility in different solvents of the synthesized compounds are determined. Thermal analysis determines the nature of the thermal decomposition of the compounds. The degree of dissociation of chelates and the dissociation constants are determined based on the conductometric study. An experiment was conducted on a broiler to study biological activity. Dynamics of broiler live mass, absolute live weight gain, daily weight gain, fowl keeping, feeding expenditure for a one-kilogram weight gain, broiler growth efficiency. It has been established that the usage of chelate boron in broiler feeding had a positive effect on all of the abovementioned parameters and the optimal dose of chelate is 100 mcg. per one kilogram of food.
