Abstract. Organic forms and, in particular, chromium picolinate are used to increase the bioavailability of chemical elements from diets due to its effective impact on the productivity of farm animals and low toxicity. The metabolism of chromium in the body has not been fully studied, and the question of its effect on the mechanisms of transformation and metabolism of elements remains open. The aim of the work was to evaluate the effect of chromium picolinate in the diet on the concentration of chemical elements and biochemical parameters of blood serum of Kazakh White–Headed bulls aged 12-13 months, with an average weight of 324 kg. In the experiment, a group of control bulls (n=3) received the main diet, chromium picolinate was included in the diet for I group (n=3) of bulls at a dose of 7.2 mg / kg of dry matter (DM), and for II group (n=3) of animals at a dose of 8 mg / kg of DM. According to the results of an experimental study, the optimal dose of chromium picolinate in the diet was determined – 8 mg / kg of DM, which was accompanied by stimulation of protein and lipid metabolism, as well as an increase in the  bioavailability  of  the  main macro- and microelements. In particular, an increase in total protein by 6.0 %, urea – by 154.5% (P≤0.001) and creatinine – by 2.2%, as well as cholesterol – by 28.7% (P≤0.05), with a decrease in triglycerides by 73% (P≤0.01) and 40% (P≤0.001) in blood serum, an increase in the concentration of As – by 158.1% (P≤0.001), Cu – by 6.2% (P≤0.01), Se – by 9.1 % (P≤0.01), Zn – by 6.3% (P≤0.05), Na – by 3.4% (P≤0.05).
