Summary. Today, there is no unified basis for using bulls for fattening and beef production in Russian livestock raising, which should be formed on modern housing technologies and feeding principles. The use of production waste (stillage and brewer's grains) in feeding will contribute to an increase in the profitability of beef production, while special attention should be paid to the level of minerals in the preparation of rations.

In this study, the elemental profile of Black Spotted bulls was studied during the period of intensive rearing and feeding from 6 to 13 months of age when alcohol production wastes (dry stillage, brewer's grains) were included in mixed feed with the same protein nutritional value. Using atomic emission and mass spectral analyzes with inductively coupled plasma, the elemental composition of bulls’ hair was studied. It is noted that the use of waste from the alcohol industry (stillage, brewer's grain) in the feeding of Black potted bulls has a beneficial effect on the elemental profile of animals, not contributing to the accumulation of toxic or conditionally toxic elements in the body of experimental animals.

Changes in the mineral profile of hair  from bulls that received dry alcohol stillage in the compound feed were revealed, in particular, a decrease in the concentration of B by 48.91% (P≤0.001) and Ni - by 30.87% (P≤0.01), while as in bulls that received dry brewer's grain in the feed, deviations were revealed for Co by 42.9-59.4%, Cu - by 11.3%, Li - 32.6-62.6% and V - by 114, 61%.

Key words: bulls, Black Spotted breed, feeding, hair, toxic elements, essential elements, stillage, brewer's grain.
