 Abstract. The paper presents data regarding the status of some important bioelements for the bovine fertility when a mineral supplement was added to a normal fertility protocol in cattle and the influence of this upon the fertility percentage. The study was made on sixty Romanian Spotted cattle 18-19 months old divided randomly in four groups as follows: C – Control, and three experimental groups E1 – E3, that received a normal fertility protocul with Ovarelin (GnRh) in day 1 and day 10, Enzaprost (PGF2α) in day 7. E1 received in plus Sel-E-Vit (Selenium+Vit.E), E2 received Mineral TS and E3 Sel-E-Vit + Mineral TS. The cattles were blind artificial inseminated in day 11 and gestation diagnosis was performen by ultrasound method in day 55 and the percentage of fertility was analyzed. Blood samples were collected in day 0 and day 12 for trace elements analisys by AAS flame and furnace method. Were measured the serum levels of iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and selenium (Se). In all experimental groups in day 0 were not significant (P≥0.05) differences regarding the studied trace elements. In day 12 we observed a significant increase of Se and Fe in E2 and E3 groups and of Cu in E2 group comparative to controol. On the other hand was recorded a significant decrease of Zn and not significant decrease of Mn in all experimental groups comparative to control. The conception rate and percentage of fertility was higher in E1 followed by E2 and E3 groups comparative to control. We can conclude that the introduction of a mineral supplement, in our case Mineral TS, could increase the the conception rate and fertility percentage in cattle.
