Phytobiotics are used for the prevention and treatment of animals. Herbal preparations have myriad range of effects on health. Legislation prefers phytobiotics and other additives to using of antibiotics, because the applications of phytobiotics have any risk of antibiotic residues. Special attention in this regard is devoted to cattle. The aim of this diploma thesis was to evaluate the effect of herbal tinctures FAUNAKOMPLEX in Holstein calves from birth to eight weeks of age. A number of health problems occur in this period, since the immune system still developing. Various factors influencing health status of calves were examined. The sufficient degree of colostral protection has a huge impact this time. Calves were divided in two groups -- experimental impact of FAUNAKOMPLEX on the incidence of various diseases, course and intensity of disease. We obtained 9 blood samples each calf in the experiment. Levels of total protein, bilirubin, creatinine, urea, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine-aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate-aminotransferase (AST) were investigated. The costs of the drugs were also compared. There were found differences in incidence of diseases (the overall incidence of diseases was shorter by 30 days in the experimental group), statistical differences in the blood biochemical parameters and differences in drug costs (costs of drugs were 45% lower in experimental group). Differences were found in the connection of intake degree of colostrum. The result show that the experimental group of calves receiving FAUNAKOMPLEX had overall lower incidence of diseases and higher resistance, thus the application of this phytobiotic could represent opportunity to strengthen animal health in practice.
