Correcting physiological and biochemical status of service dogs with dihydroquercetin

Abstract

The search for new ways to optimize the adaptive capabilities of service dogs is a prerequisite for increasing the viability of animals and increasing their longevity. Dihydroquercetin neutralizes the increased level of free radicals toxic to the body, protecting cell membranes from destruction, and reduces the harmful effects of oxidative stress. The use of dihydroquercetin contributed to increased providing cells with oxygen, stimulated anabolic processes and increased the antioxidant defense of the body. The amount of red blood cells in the blood of service dogs increased by 11.5-19.1% (p<0.01) when using dihydroquercetin, hemoglobin increased by 5.7-9.4% (p<0.05), total protein by 21-32% (p<0.01), albumin by 30-31% (p<0.001), compared with similar data at the beginning of the experiment. The antioxidant properties of dihydroquercetin contributed to the reduction of malondialdehyde by 23.9% (p <0.05); reduction of diene conjugates by 26%; and an increase in catalase activity by 36% compared to the data on the first day of the experiment. The use of dihydroquercetin optimizes the adaptive capabilities of service dogs and can be used to increase the vitality and longevity of animals.
