METHOD FOR ASSESSING GENOMIC STABILITY, GENETIC VARIABILITY IN POPULATIONS OF FEMALE MINK Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC A01K67/00 

FIELD: biotechnology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of biotechnology. The claimed method includes the use of a micronucleus test - determining the frequency of occurrence of erythrocytes containing micronuclei in the peripheral blood of minks at different periods of ontogenesis and phases of the reproductive cycle of females and allows you to establish a relationship with this indicator of the physiological state of the body, the reproductive ability of females, and also to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of the cultivation technology used and breeding minks.

EFFECT: increased frequency of occurrence of erythrocytes with micronuclei in the blood of short-haired mink females during the formation of their reproductive functions at the age of 4 months in the range from to predicts an increased probability of a decrease in reproductive functions in females.
