Background: The goal of this study was to confirm the effects engineering design vaginal progesterone implant capsule, which had a 2 cm sponge with diameter 5 cm, porous capsule dose 50 mg MAP in centre and 13 nylon cord for keeping position. Methods: A full concentrate total protein 17% consumed at 0.05 kg/day/head previously administered as many 30 overweight ewes body score least 3 those who...

A trial was conducted to test the efficiency of different doses of intravaginal progestagen in the synchronization of different goat breeds, in the breeding season. Sixty Multiparous Boer and 60 Indigenous feral does were allocated to three treatment groups. The groups consisted of a control group (natural oestrus) (n=20/breed); 60mg MAP sponge groups inserted for 14 days plus 300IU PMSG at spo...

The aim of the present study was to determine the responses of Black Bengal Goat following synchronization with alfaprostol, superovulation with PMSG and embryo collection with surgical procedure. This research work was carried out at the Department of Surgery and Obstetrics, Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) during the period from January to December 2001. Three Flushing schedules have ...

The buffalo is an important livestock resource in several countries of South Asia and the Mediterranean regions. However, reproductive efficiency is compromised due to known problems of biological and management origins, such as lack of animal selection and poor nutrition. Under optimal conditions puberty is attained at 15 to 18 months in river buffalo, 21 to 24 months in swamp buffalo and is i...

To be ultimately successful, techniques used to control the oestrous cycle of the cow will have to embody methods which allow the time of insemination to be arranged without reference to behavioural oestrus. This is particularly important in the case ofbeefsuckler cows as it is difficult to detect heat in these animals probably owing to the suckling stimulus. This means that treatments used to ...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Suboestrus constitutes the largest factor responsible for poor reproductive efficiency in buffaloes. Therefore, oestrus synchronization (OS) and fixed-time artificial insemination (AI) is considered an alternative approach to enhance reproductive efficiency in buffaloes. Thus, the present study was carried out to study the efficacy of modified Ovsynch protocol with fixed time...

The aim of this investigation was to characterize the pattern of cervical myoelectrical activity (EMG) in the sheep, during the periovulatory period, after synchronization of oestrus with progestagen and eCG. EMG was measured with a computerised modular system in five ewes previously fitted with a pair of monopolar Teflon needle electrodes in the muscle layers of the cervix. Each ewe was submit...
