In this note, a procedure to partition the genetic trend of a selected population is presented. Each part of the genetic gain accounts for the Mendelian sampling terms of different groups of animals, which can be sometimes assigned to different selection policies. The method is based on a simple transformation of the predicted breeding values. The procedure was illustrated with two simulated ex...

In this case, semen that handled by urethral catheterization was deposited into the deepest point of vagina an anesthetized queen. Intravaginal artificial insemination applied on 2nd day onset oestrus and only single performed. Insemination time determined behavioural cytological evaluations. Two healthy kittens were obtained 62 days after insemination. The case has important reports in terms b...

In an experiment involving the artificial insemination of 312 Merino ewes, fertilization, early (18 day), and late (100 day) pregnancy rates were examined after intrauterine insemination with frozen semen using a laparoscope. Oestrus was synchronized in ewes by progestagen sponge/PMSG treatment. After cervical insemination of fresh semen (control) 55 hrs after sponge removal, the fertilization,...

1121 In this Article, Professor Radhika Rao sketches out the parameters of the constitutional right of privacy and applies the right to "new" reproductive technologies , such as artificial insemination, in vitro fertilizatibn, and surrogacy. The thesis of the Article is that privacy-currently miscast as an individual right-must be reconceived as a relational right in order to capture its social...

This paper investigates the efficiency of application of medical ethics principles in the practice of artificial insemination by donors (AID) in China, in a culture characterised by traditional ethical values and disapproval of AID. The paper presents the ethical approach to AID treatment as established by the Reproduction and Genetics Hospital of CITIC-Xiangya (CITIC Hunan-Yale Approach) in th...
