Contamination of the biosphere and its components of air, soil, water, plants and animals by heavy metals has become widespread. In Ukraine, the war led to the destruction of oil depots, hydraulic structures, solid waste landfills, sewage treatment plants, testing of various types of weapons, which only exacerbated the environmental problem of heavy metal pollution. In the post-war period, agricultural enterprises will concentrate their attention on the production of ecologically safe cow's milk on cattle farms, the agro-ecosystems of which are subject not only to increased technogenic influence, but also to mines and explosions. Heavy metals incorporated with feed cause chronic intoxication, affect the kidneys, liver and other organs and systems of the body. Medicinal plants with proven antidote properties and new biotechnological methods of their introduction into the body are a.. Read More»
