Nevada REVIEW OF ESTRUS SYNCHRONIZATION SYSTEMS : CIDR
The CIDR is an intravaginal progesterone insert, used in conjunction with other hormones to synchronize estrus in beef and dairy cows and heifers. The CIDR was developed in New Zealand and has been used for several years to advance the first pubertal estrus in heifers and the first postpartum estrus in cows. The CIDR is a “T” shaped device with flexible wings that collapse to form a rod that ca...
متن کاملEstrus Synchronization Protocols for Heifers
Estrus synchronization and artificial insemination (AI) remain the most important and widely applicable reproductive biotechnologies available for cattle (Seidel, 1995). Although hormonal treatment of heifers and cows to group estrous cycles has been a commercial reality now for over 30 years, beef producers have been slow to adopt this management practice. Perhaps this is because of past failu...
متن کاملComparison of controlled internal drug release insert-based protocols to synchronize estrus in prepubertal and estrous-cycling beef heifers.
The objective of the experiment was to examine the necessity of adding a GnRH injection to a 14-d controlled internal drug release (CIDR)-based protocol for synchronization of estrus in beef heifers that were prepubertal or estrous-cycling at the initiation of treatment. The hypothesis tested was that the addition of GnRH in a CIDR-based estrus synchronization protocol would increase the synchr...
متن کاملComparison of long-term progestin-based estrus synchronization protocols in beef heifers.
Two experiments evaluated long-term progestin-based estrus-synchronization programs on the basis of potential for use in facilitating fixed-time AI in estrous cycling and prepubertal beef heifers. In Exp. 1, heifers were assigned to 1 of 2 treatments by age, BW, and estrous cyclicity status. Heifers assigned to the melengestrol acetate-PGF(2α) protocol (MGA-PG; n = 50) received MGA (0.5 mg·anim...
متن کاملSynchronization of Estrus in Cattle
Numbers of estrus synchronization programmes are available in cattle based on the use of various hormones like progesterone, prostaglandin F2a and their various combinations with other hormones like estrogen and Gonadotrophin Releasing hormone (GnRH). Selection of appropriate estrus synchronization protocol should be made on the basis of management capabilities and expectations of the farmer. S...
