Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.	Intensive animal husbandry is associated with the production of large amounts of organic waste (manure, slurry). The composition and quality of organic waste from animal production are the picture of animal hygiene, sanitation and animal farm management. The work is focused on the use of alternative materials (zeolite and lime) to improve animal hygiene and environmental protection.
Other data
OCA16. Annotation of the output in English	The aim of this study was to examine the devitalization effect of natural additives like zeolite-clinoptilolite and its combination with hydrated lime in composted cattle manure on indicator and pathogen bacteria. The composting process was running in three static piles of cattle manure mixed with wheat straw (control, zeolite–lime, and zeolite) for 126 days. Composted manure substrates were determined for physicochemical (temperature, pH, nitrogen and phosphorus content, C/N, organic matter, and moisture) and microbiological analyses (Salmonella spp., indicator bacteria). The effects of additives were reflected in changes in physicochemical factors, e.g., an increase in temperature (

OCA18. Characteristics of the output's impact on socio-economic practice	The composition and quality of organic waste from animal production are the picture of animal hygiene, sanitation and animal farm management. In this article, the survival of individual microorganisms (hygiene indicators) in organic materials from animal farms, the influence of individual physical and chemical factors during composting were studied. Our results may help further optimize composting of cattle manure to reduce environmental pollution and the risk of human infection.
OCA19. Characteristics of the output and related activities' impact on the educational process	This publication offers new knowledge and contributes to expanding the knowledge of UVLF students in the area of using alternative materials (zeolites) to improve the composting process, animal husbandry hygiene, and reducing possible risks to animals and pollution of individual components of the environment.
