Opis

The monograph presents the concept of interrelation between chemical composition of organs, tissues and biological fluids of cloven-hoofed animals and habitat; proposes original approaches to monitoring of heavy metals, vital microelements and persistent organochlorine pesticides status in natural and agrobiogeocenoses. New ways of assessment and correction of pollutant status in wild and agricultural parnofoot animals, as well as components of their habitat (breeding) have been introduced. The theoretical significance of the research is substantiated by the evidence of dependence of gross levels of chemical elements and pesticides in visceral organs and biological fluids of ungulates on their status in the environment. The traditional methodology of field studies, the existing methods of chemical analysis of substance and statistical processing of the received data have been effectively applied to the problematic of research.
