Veterinary and sanitary characteristics of quail meat bred from eggs treated with biostimulant solutions

 Currently, increasing the efficiency of production in agriculture is the main task for scientists-developers of technological solutions, and quail farming  as one of the sub-branches of poultry farming is not exception. In most cases, producers solve this issue by increasing the safety of the livestock, using various preparations and feed additives, but also do not forget about the efficiency of the hatchery, since not only the quantity, but also the quality of young animals affects the future viability and productivity of individuals. Therefore, improving the efficiency of the hatchery is another mechanism for increasing the profitability of production. To optimize hatching and hatchability of eggs, transovarial processing of eggs before incubation with solutions of biostimulants (a solution of monoethanolamine, succinic acid, serine and pyridoxine hydrochloride) proved to be effective. This single treatment contributed to an increase in quail hatching and egg hatchability in both breeds of predominantly meat and egg production directions. In order to study the  effect of processing eggs with solutions of biostimulants on quail meat, a veterinary and sanitary examination was carried out (organoleptic assessment,  microbiological studies of the pectoral and femoral muscles, safety indicators), which proved that the meat of the control and experimental groups complies with the regulations, and can be used in food without restrictions, since the studied indicators were within the reference values. So, when studying the appearance, color, smell, pH, good quality, freshness of meat, reaction to peroxidase, determination of meat safety indicators (KMAFАnM, etc., antibiotics and pesticides), it was found that meat samples of all groups comply with the standards. In this case, the studies were carried out according to generally accepted methods. Thus, the use of biostimulants before the incubation of quail  eggs is not only an effective, but also a safe way to stimulate their embryogenesis and does not have a negative effect on the products obtained.
