Sažetak
The research was conducted on 28 lambs divided into two groups (C-control and E-experiment). The investigation started on day 15 of age and lasted until day 77 of age. The probiotic BioPlus 2B was added into the feed of the lamb in group B. The lambs in group E had a higher body weight (by 1.90%), greater daily gain (by 2.50%), increased average daily intake and a better feed conversion, compared to C group but differences between the groups were not statistically significant. The lambs in group E had, in the blood serum, statistically lower concentration of urea (5.51:7.97 mmol/l) and triglycerids (0.22:0.35 mmol/l) compared to group C. No significant differences between lambs in the groups C and E were observed in the blood levels of glucose (2.67:2.45 mmol/l), cholesterol (1.25:1.08 mmol/l), total proteins (66.08:63.70g/l), creatinine (52.01:48.0 μmol/l) and albumin (27.68:28.35 g/l). The results testify to the moderate increase of metabolic activity in the E group of lambs.
