The development of quail farming in Russia stimulated the search for environmentally friendly micronutrient preparations that ensure the safety, health and high productivity of birds. Evaluation of the effect of a complex carnitine-containing composition on metabolic parameters was assessed using an automatic biochemical analyzer Biochemical Analyzer SMT-120 Vet with subsequent mathematical data processing. The composition was applied to quails from 2 to 80 days of age. The introduction of the composition at a dose of 0.25 ml/l for 5 days with a 10-day interval in 76-78-day-old quails significantly increased the protein coefficient by 17.14 and creatinine by 22.59%, decreased urea by 5.09%, total bilirubin by 15.45%, glucose by 51.00%. The use of the composition at a dose of 0.5 ml/l for 5 days with a 10-day interval significantly increased the protein coefficient by 18.29%, decreased the concentration of uric acid by 16.38, urea by 6.58 and glucose by 55.16%. The use of the composition at a dose of 0.25 ml/l for 5 days with a 5-day interval contributed to an increase in albumin by 67.68%, normalization of the protein coefficient, a decrease in uric acid by 9.91, urea by 5.34, total bilirubin by 22.22 and glucose by 45.03%. Integration of the composition into the diet at a dose of 0.5 ml/l for 5 days with a 5-day interval led to a decrease in uric acid by 7.33, total bilirubin by 29.33 and glucose by 54.89%, an increase in creatinine by 11.57%. The carnitine-containing composition was a universal regulator of metabolic processes, with a pronounced hepatoprotective effect, had a beneficial effect on protein metabolism and improved the energy status of quails. Its most effective use is at a dose of 0.25 ml/l for 5 days with a 5-day interval throughout the entire growing period.
