Abstract

This study concerns the effects of Se, Cu, Co, Mn and Zn supplements on blood levels of Finnish warm-blooded trotters. The results revealed that the blood Se content corresponding to the feed Se content of 0.1 mg/kg is 0.17 ± 0.03 mg/kg in the horse. Blood Se level was directly related to the feed Se content and the other feed trace elements had a similar effect on blood levels.
