Summary. The article presents data on the peculiarities of the bacteriocenoses formation in calves in different technological periods of raising and different animal housing systems. It has been shown that in calves up to three days of age the quantitative content of microorganisms is minimal. The amount of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli does not exceed 3 log CFU/g. In calves older than three days of age, their level increased, and depending on the method of housing, ranged from 5 log CFU/g (in calves with group housing) to 8 log CFU/g (in calves with individual housing). The microbiocenosis in calves with an individual housing system was characterized by a more constant and less variable composition of Escherichia coli (4 ± 0.8×10² CFU/g) and bacillary spore microflora (3 ± 1.3×10¹ CFU/g). In case of the group housing of calves, the content of bifidobacteria was lower (20.9 ± 5.5×10⁶ CFU/g), and the content of E. coli and saprophytic microorganisms of the genus Bacillus was high and more variable (30 ± 20.4×10⁵ CFU/g and 31 ± 11.3×10² CFU/g respectively). In calves older than fifteen days of age, the amount of lactobacilli ranged from 6 to 8 log CFU/g, and the number of bifidobacteria ranged from 7 to 10 log CFU/g. Thus, to exclude dysbiotic disorders, it is necessary to maintain the optimal composition and quantitative level of the main microflora of the intestinal tract, in particular the number of lactobacilli should be at least 6 log CFU/g, bifidobacteria at least 7 log CFU/g, E. coli no more than 7 log CFU/g (except for calves under three days of age)

Keywords: dysbiosis, normal intestinal microflora
