Introduction
Organic agriculture is quickly permeating enterprises, producing food products, as well as markets of European countries.
In EU countries, environment friendly animal husbandry and crop farming regulations form a legislative framework for environmental agriculture, being the constituent part of the documentation of Organics International (International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements), formed in 1972. The laws of this body define that within the EU the environmental agriculture products are notable for monitoring their production process, rather than probing a number of con-

Probiotics are live cultures of bacteria used in veterinary medicine and animal nutrition to treat and increase their productivity. They appear antagonistic to pathogenic and conditionally pathogenic microflora in intestines, exert a positive effect on immunity, increase digestibility of fodder nutrients.
Probiotics stimulate symbiotic intestinal microflora, are harmless, have no contraindications, in combination with veterinary and sanitary measures have a positive effect on microbiocenosis of gastrointestinal tracts of animals [1-9].
One instance of such formulations are "Vetom 2" and "Lactobifadol". "Vetom 2" contains dry biomass of live spore-forming bacteria Bacillus amyloliquefa-ciens strain RNCIM B-10642 (DSM 24614) and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain RNCIM B-10643 (DSM 24615) [10].
"Lactobifadol" is a dry mass of lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus, as well as bifidobacteria Bifidobacterium adolescentis [10].
Bacterial formulations are used to maintain animals' immunity, reduce the burden of antimicrobial substances, reduce various stresses induced by production process, restore the normoflora of the intestine of animals and poultry [12-18].
The objective of this research was to study the intestinal microbiocenosis in broiler chickens. In this regard, the following goals were set:
- to probe intestinal microflora of chickens in experimental groups;
- to conduct hematomancy to monitor physiological condition of chickens;
- to determine digestibility of fodder nutrients in chickens depending on formulations used.
Methods
Studies of intestinal microbiocenosis in broiler chickens have been conducted in Northern Trans-Urals conditions. Laboratory experiment was conducted at Research and Development Center for Agriculture of the North-Western Branch of Tyumen Research Center of SB RAS. Cobb 500 chickens breed was used. The chickens were distributed based on the principle of balanced equivalent groups consisting of 35 heads per group. The chickens rearing period was 34 days. The experiment's primary stage began by the time the chickens had reached an average body weight of 365 grams, at the age of 14 days.
Based on research design, the control group of chickens was fed industrially produced all-in-one complete feed and pure water.
Chickens of the 1st experimental group were fed with industrially produced all-in-one complete feed, with water, as well as "Vetom 2" formulation at the rate of 50 mg / 1 kg of poultry weight. 2nd experimental group of chickens received the same feed with "Lactobifadol" at the rate of 0.2 g per 1 kg of poultry weight.
"Vetom 2" is a white powder for oral use, finely dispersed, odorless, soluble in water, forming a white sediment. Dry biomass of live spore-forming Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain RNCIM B-10642 (DSM 24614) and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain RNCIM B-10643 (DSM 24615). Manufacturer: NPF Research Center LLC (Russia).
"Lactobifadol" is a powder for oral use. International non-proprietary name: lactobifadolum. Contains, dried by sorption method, microbial mass of lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus LG1-DEP-VGNKI, bifidobacteria Bifidobacterium adolescentis B-1-DEP-VGNKI and filler agent - wheat flour.
In terms of its appearance, "Lactobifadol" is a homogeneous loose powder of beige color. One gram of the formulation contains at least 1.0x106 CFU (colony-forming units) of living cells of lactic acid bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus LG1-DEP-VGIKI and 8.0x107 CFU of live cells of bifidobacteria Bifidobacterium adolescentis B-1-DEP-VGNKI.
The intestinal microbiocenosis was probed in group's three chickens at the start and four chickens at the end of experiment in the bacteriological laboratory of the State Educational Institution for Higher Professional Education The Tyumen State Medical Academy under Federal Service on Surveillance in Healthcare by applying laboratory methods of inoculation of nutrient media as provided for by the Industry Standard OST 91500.11.0004-2003 (enacted by the Order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation No. 231 of 09.06.2003. The calculation of the quantity of microorganisms was accepted as CFU/g based on generally acknowledged methodology. Material for the analysis was collected from intestines into sterile containers. Feces were analyzed on day 12 and day 34 of rearing period.
At the age of 12 and 34 days, blood serum was collected from experimental poultry for research. The blood serum was analyzed to determine: total protein, albumin, creatinine, urea, cholesterol, triglycerides. The analyses were carried out in the laboratory of the State Educational Institution for Higher Professional Education The Tyumen State Medical Academy of Federal Service on Oversight in Healthcare.
Results
The microbial community is divided into obligate microflora, which inhabits it permanently, and optional, ingressed from external environment. The main instances of beneficial microflora are: bifidobacteria, lactoba-cilli, E. coli with normal enzymatic activity, Bacillus subtilis. Bifidobacteria represent numerous instances of intestinal microflora. They inhibit the development of pathogenic microflora. Bifidobacteria contribute to normal functioning of intestine. During their life processes, volatile fatty acids, such as lactic, acetic, formic and succinicare formed. Formation of acids helps in reducing pH levels of intestinal mucosa down to 4.0 -
3.8. As a result, the growth of pathogenic microflora inside intestine is inhibited. An important biological effect of bifidobacteria is expressed in synthesis of amino acids, proteins, a number of vitamins - thiamine, ribo-flavin, nicotinic, pantothenic, folic acids, pyridoxine, cyanocobalamin, vitamin K, which are absorbed in the intestine and used in metabolic processes. Synthesized vitamins B exert a positive effect on development of an immune response in animals.
Lactobacteria are also instances of a normal intestinal microbiota. They are antagonists to pathogenic microorganisms. They participate in forming immunity. They exhibit antibacterial activity associated with their ability to form lactic acid during fermentation. In addition, they produce lysozyme, lactoline, lysine, lactoci-din and others.
Lactic acid bacteria, in the digestive tract, prevent excessive reproduction of a number of bacteria that periodically enter gastrointestinal tract with fodder or belong to the category of concomitant flora and capable of causing development of endogenous infection as a result of a decrease in resistance of microorganism. High levels of lactobacteria contribute to the development of high resistance of animals to experimental infection after infecting them with Staph. aureus and Klebs. pneumonie. Lactic acid bacteria are able to suppress
reproduction of putrefactive and pyogenic microbes: Pseudomonas, Aeromonas, E. coli, Salm. Cholera suis, Klebs. pneumonie and many others.
E. coli - Escherichia coli with normal enzymatic activity, is also a competitor to pathogenic flora. Symbiotic action with bifido- and lactobacteria, which are involved in synthesis of vitamins K and B. Contributes to normal functioning of immunity.An important function of escherichia is hydrolysis of lactose, synthesis of vitamins, antibiotic-like substances that inhibit the growth of pathogenic E. coli. A powerful immunomod-ulatory effect, activating humoral and local immunity. Escherichia colonize the colon and lower parts of the small intestine.
Bacillus subtilis (senna bacillus) is a gram-positive, spore-forming, aerobic type of soil bacteria. Contributes to synthesis of polypeptide antibiotics, as well as industrially produced enzymes such as amylase, protease. They exert an active biological effect on bodies of animals due to synthesis of various enzymes, antibiotics, lipopolysaccharides, as well as act as im-munostimulants. In addition to antibacterial action of spore-forming aerobic bacteria, many authors have established antiviral action. Sarcinaspp - a type of grampositive non-pathogenic cocci. They are found in air, water, living organisms.

Enterococci, staphylococci, streptococci, fungi, proteus, Klibsiella pneumonieal, Serratia marcescens, Citrodacter freundii - are instances of conditionally pathogenic microflora, which, in moderate quantities, do not cause diseases. Under unfavourable conditions, they can multiply and cause intestinal disorders. This occurs when their number increases in relation to the normal microbiota, as well as with a decrease in functioning of immunity.
Clostridia is a type of gram-positive, anaerobic bacteria that produce endospores. They are constituent instances of a normal intestinal flora.
Hemolytic and salmonella E. coli are pathogenic microorganisms that cause gastrointestinal tract diseases in poultry, animals and humans. Microbiological snapshot of the chickens' intestines contents at the start and at the end of the main period of experiment are shown in Tables 1 and 2.
The Table 1 data show that no pathogenic microflora was observed in microbiocenosis of the droppings of broiler chickens prior to drinking probiotic formulations. Conditionally pathogenic bacteria Proteus mirabilis were present in 3 cases out of 9, Klebsiella oxytoca in 2 cases, Klebsiella pneumoniae in 1, Staphylococcus aureus in 7 cases out of 9. There was no difference between the groups observed. Bacillis spp was present in all of the samples.
Table 2 presents a snapshot of microflora of chickens' droppings after drinking formulations. No pathogenic microflora was detected in the droppings. Conditionally pathogenic bacteria Proteus mirabilis in the droppings of control group chickens were present in 2 cases out of 4, 1st experimental group also in 2 cases,
2nd experimental group in 1 case out of 4. No staphylo-coccus aureus was detected in the droppings of control group chickens, while in the 1st experimental group it was present in 2 samples out of 4, in 2nd experimental group in 3 samples. Concentrations of Bifidobacteria and Lactobacteria in the droppings of chickens of the 2nd experimental group, where the chickens were fed with "Lactobifadol", were much higher than in other groups. Bacillissppwas present in all samples of the 1st experimental group, control group - in 2 samples out of 4, 2nd experimental group - in 3 samples. Thus, adding of bacterial formulations allows to increase concentrations of corresponding bacteria in intestinal microbio-cenosis of broiler chickens.
Intestinal microbiocinosis can affect digestibility of nutrients in the ration, because microbes have cellulo-lytic, proteolytic activity, secrete enzymes and synthesize vitamins, proteins and other nutrients used in the metabolism of the hosting body.
In our study, the nutrients digestibility coefficients of the fodder were determined. As well as the balance of protein, calcium and phosphorus in broiler chickens bodies. Digestibility of fodder was studied during a physiological experiment that was conducted by using a group method on 12 heads of a group (6 hens and 6 roosters) of broiler chickens at the age of 30 days.
The protein digestibility coefficient in chickens of control group was 87.4 %, in the 1st experimental group - 86.8 %, in the 2nd experimental group - 87.3 %; fiber - 20,7; 24,4; 27.0 % respectively. Calcium - 51,2; 55,3; 60,5 %. Phosphorus - 81,3; 83,1; 87,1 %. Fat -75,6; 74,0; 73,0 %.

Thus, coefficients of calcium and phosphorus digestibility in chickens of the first experimental group were higher by 4.1 and 1.8 %, and in the second experimental group by 9.3 and 5.8% higher than in the control group. Fiber was better digested in chickens of the 2nd experimental group by 6.3 %, whereas in the 1st experimental group - by 3.7 % compared to the control group. Thus, "Lactobifadol" and "Vetom 2" formulations improve absorption of calcium, phosphorus and fiber in broiler chickens.
Physiological condition of the poultry was monitored by hematological and biochemical analyses, because blood composition and its serum reflect biochemical processes occurring in a body.
Blood serum was collected from experimental poultryat the ages of 12 and 34 days to run biochemical analyses.
The intensity of broiler poultry rearing imprints biochemical composition of chickens' blood (Fig. 1, 2).
Biochemical analyses (Fig. 1, 2) of chickens' serum showed that comparing with the start of experiment, at the end of the experiment, triglyceride indicators in the control group decreased by 0.37 mmol/ l, whereas in the 1st experimental group by 0.52, and in the 2nd experimental group by 0.13 mmol/l and were lower than the physiological norm both at the start and at the end of the experimental period. At the same time, the amount of cholesterol was higher in all samples, both at the start and at the end of the experiment. There is an inverse correlation between the concentrations of triglycerides and cholesterol here - the lower the level of triglycerides, the higher are cholesterol concentrations. In this case, we observe a metabolic disorder based on the above-mentioned indicators. This is not resulting from intake of formulations involved in the study, because the ratio of triglycerides to cholesterol was not optimal both before and after exposure to formulations, as well as between groups.
Urea is formed during metabolism of proteins in the liver. As a final product of such metabolism, it is delivered from the liver to the blood and to the kidneys for excretion from the body. Increased concentrationsof urea in the blood serum of more than 20 mmol/l causes swelling of organs and heart muscle, because the compound has hydrophilic capabilities.
The quantity of urea in the serum of our experimental poultry decreased by 0.52 mmol/l in the control group, by 0.64 in the 1st experimental group, and by 0.73 mmol/l in the 2nd experimental group compared to the start of experiment and was within the normal range.
Creatinine levels were lower by 10 ^mol/l in the control group, by 5.33 in the 1st experimental group, and by 4.92 ^mol/l in the 2nd experimental group compared to the start of experiment and were slightly below normal.
Low levels of creatinine and triglycerides in broiler chickens may be associated with the process of establishing metabolic processes, high growth rate, muscle gain and increased energy demand to maintain these processes.
Discussion and Conclusion
Many publications dedicated to poultry's gastrointestinal diseases list intensive poultry rearing technologies as a factor limiting the contact of birds with the environment and available sources of normal microflora. This has a negative impact on microecology of gastrointestinal tract, changing the evolutionarily formed structure of intestinal microbiotope.
The data of S. A. Glaskovich, P. P. Krasochko indicate that the bacterial formulation "Bifidofloran liquid" populates poultry's gastrointestinal tract and stimulates formation of lacto- and bifidoflora in gastrointestinal tract of chickens. The use of this probiotic leads to inhibition of intestinal-paratyphoid bacteria in gastrointestinal tract of chickens. The formulation improves poultry's intestinal digestion, it normalizes liver condition

and metabolic processes within the body, especially metabolism of protein and minerals [13].
Probiotics "Prolam", "Levisel SB Plus" and "Profort" have a positive effect on meat efficiency, slaughtering performance indicators and safety of broiler chickens [14].
The use of "Lactobifadol" probiotic increases poultry's gains of live weight, survival rates and it is economically justified. The formulationcan be recommended for use in rations when rearing broiler chickens [11].
The research of E. R. Rafikova, G. A. Nozdrin was aimed at studying the growth-stimulating effect of the "Vetom" formulation based on adaptogenic fungus Dudingtonia flagrans. A positive effect of the formulation on intensity of live weight gains in broiler chickens was recognized [18].
The "Vetom" formulation microorganisms culture successfully inhibited the growth of Enterobacter cloacae microorganisms over entire surface of a petri dish with MPA in an in vitro experiment [19].
In our studies, it was found that the use of "Vetom 2" and "Lactobifadol" bacterial formulations contributed to the increase of corresponding microorganisms in intestinal microbiosis of chickens, improved digestibility of nutrients and minerals, in particular, fiber, calcium and phosphorus.
In the microbiocenosis of broiler chickens' droppings pathogenic microflora was not observed prior to feeding probiotic preparations. Conditionally pathogenic bacteria Proteus mirabilis were present in 3 cases out of 9, Klebsiella oxytoca in 2 cases, Klebsiella pneumoniae in 1 case, Staphylococcus aureus in 7 cases out of 9. No difference was identified between the groups. Bacillis spp. were present in all samples. After feeding the formulations, no pathogenic microflora was detected in the droppings of chickens of experimental groups. Conditionally pathogenic bacteria Proteus mirabilis in the chickens' droppings of control group were present in 2 cases out of 4, in the 1st experimental group also in 2 cases, in the 2nd experimental group in 1 case out
of 4. Staphylococcus aureus was not detected in droppings of control group's chickens, in the 1st experimental group was present in 2 samples from 4, in the 2nd experimental group in 3 samples. Concentrations of Bi-fidobacteria and Lactobacilli in droppings of chickens of the 2nd experimental group, where the poultrywere fed with "Lactobifadol" formulation, was much higher than in other groups. This is logical, because "Lacto-bifadol" contains live lactobacteria and bifidobacteria. Bacillis spp was present in all samples of the 1 st experimental group, because "Vetom 2" contains biomass of live Bacillus bacteria. In the control group, Bacillus was present in 2 samples out of 4, in the 2nd experimental group - In 3 samples.
Thus, addiing of bacterial formulations allows to increase concentration of corresponding bacteria in intestinal microbiocenosis of broiler chickens, which has a positive effect on physiological conditionof poultry.
The coefficients of calcium and phosphorus digestibility in chickens of the first experimental group were higher by 4.1 and 1.8 %, and in the second experimental group by 9.3 and 5.8 % higher than in the control group. Fiber digestion in chickens of the 2nd experimental group was better by 6.3%, while in the 1st experimental group it was better by 3.7% compared to the controlgroup. Thus, the "Lactobifadol" and "Vetom 2" formulations improve absorption of calcium, phosphorus and fiber in broiler chickens.
Low serum creatinine and triglyceride levels in broiler chickens may be associated with metabolic processes, high rate of growth, muscle gain, and higher than normal energy consumption to support these processes.
The work of many scientists is devoted to research in the field of intestinal microbiology of animals and poultry. It was found that the adding of aerobic bacteria (Bacillus subtillis, Bacillus licheniformis) to the digestive tract of animals and poultry enhances the phago-cytic activity of leukocytes in blood. Bacteria of this type induce formation of endogenous interferon [8].

Аннотация. Целью исследований являлось изучение микробиоценоза кишечника у цыплят-бройлеров. Лабораторный опыт был проведен в НИИСХ Северного Зауралья - филиале ТюмНЦ СО РАН. Методы. Использовались цыплята кросса Кобб 500. Основной период опыта начался в возрасте птицы 14 дней. К этому времени цыплята достигли средней живой массы 365 г. Контрольная группа цыплят потребляла основной рацион, состоящий из полнорационного комбикорма и чистой воды. Цыплята 1-й опытной группы в основном периоде опыта получали пробиотическую добавку «Ветом 2» в питьевой воде по 50 мг / 1 кг массы цыпленка, цыплята 2-й опытной группы - «Лактобифадол» в корм по 0,2 г на 1 кг массы птицы. Результаты исследований показали, что в микробиоценозе помета цыплят-бройлеров до выпойки про-биотических препаратов патогенной микрофлоры не наблюдалось. Присутствовали условно-патогенные
бактерии Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella oxytoca, Klebsiella pneumoniae, стафилококк золотистый. Bacillus spp. присутствовали во всех пробах. После выпойки препаратов, в помете цыплят подопытных групп патогенной микрофлоры не выявлено. Присутствовали условно-патогенные бактерии Proteus mirabilis в помете цыплят контрольной группы, 1-й опытной группы, 2-й опытной группы. Содержание бифидобактерий и лактобактерий в помете цыплят, получавших подкормку препаратом «Лактобифадол», было значительно больше, чем в остальных группах. Bacillis spp. присутствовали во всех пробах 1-й опытной группы, получавшей «Ветом 2», а также в помете цыплят остальных групп. Научная новизна. Лабораторный опыт на цыплятах-бройлерах по изучению микробиоценоза кишечника и влияния его на переваримость комбикормов был впервые проведен в условиях Северного Зауралья.
Ключевые слова: цыплята-бройлеры, Ветом, Лактобифадол, микробиоценоз кишечника, коэффициенты переваримости.
