The impact of the BioR remedy on the serum bilirubin and its fractions in young rabbits

Abstract

Cuniculture in recent years has become a perspective business as more companies prefer to raise rabbits in order to obtain dietetic meat and a good profit. To achieve such performances, and in order to remove various obstacles in exploit-ing these species susceptible to stressogenic factors, especially in semiintensive or intensive production conditions, it requires the usage of drugs. It is noted that in the context of the prohibition of antibiotics as growth promoters in the EU, it is necessary to develop and to test new remedies with antistress and growth stimulating properties. In this context, our aim was to elucidate the impact of the BioR remedy, obtained from Spirulina platensis, and administrated in different doses to youth rabbits, on their state of health, and on certain biochemical indices which mainly reflect the functional state of the liver.
