چکیده
An experiment was conducted to determine whether gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (Gn-RH) or HCG would reduce the proportion of unruptured follicles in the Galway ewe following a high superovulating dose of PMSG given in conjunction with a progestagen to synchronize oestrus. Forty-four Galway ewes aged 1\m=1/2\to 5 years (average wt 64\m=.\7kg) were treated with intravaginal pessaries impregnated with 30 mg 'cronolone' (Synchromate: G. D. Searle) for 14 days in early October 1973. All ewes were given 2000 i.u. PMSG (Folligon : Intervet) intramuscularly in 5 ml water at the time of withdrawal of the pessaries and were placed with raddled fertile rams. At 24 hr after removal of the pessary, the ewes were assigned to three groups and were treated as follows: Group 1\p=m-\50\g=m\gGn-RH intramuscularly in 1 ml water; Group 2\p=m-\750i.u. HCG intramuscularly in 1 ml water (Chorulon : Intervet) ; Group 3\p=m-\control(no treatment). The ewes were inspected each day at 09.00 and 16.00 hours for evidence of mating. At 4\m=1/2\to 5 days following removal of the pessaries, the ewes were either

In this study, we aimed to investigate reproductive performance in estrus-induced Zandi ewes treated with equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) injection in combination with prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α)and gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) during non-breeding season. The estrous cycle was synchronized using controlled internal drug release (CIDR) for 12 days. The ewes were randomly assigned to...
متن کاملP-76: Stepwise Reduction of Fetal Bovine Serum Levels in Chinese Hamster OvaryCells -Expressing Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin- Culture
Background: The demand for producing recombinant therapeutic proteins by mammalian cell lines, such as Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, continues to grow. Significant achievements in process optimization including development of cell culture strategies for largescale and cost-effective production have been made. Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is an often essential growth supplement and yet most cos...
متن کاملElectrophoretic Homogeneity of Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotrophin
A highly purified and potent gonadotrophin in pregnant mare serum has been prepared. The preparation has been shown to be electrophoretically homogeneous in the Tiselius apparatus. The mobilities of the substance have been determined over a wide range of hydrogen ion concentrations. The isoelectric point lies at pH 2.60-2.65 and the value of See PDF for Equation is 4.0 x 10(-5). Some chemical c...
متن کاملHuman chorionic gonadotrophin as an indicator of persistent ges-tational trophoblastic neoplasia
Background : Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) disease is excessive and inappropriate proliferation of trophoblast after termination of the pregnancy. Many attempts have been made to improve follow-up procedures, but no studies have evaluated Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG) as a post treatment indicator. Thus we aimed to know β-HCG variability in post treatment pregnancies. Meth...
متن کاملHuman chorionic gonadotrophin luteal support overcomes luteal phase inadequacy after gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist-induced ovulation in gonadotrophin-stimulated cycles.
Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa)-induced ovulation after gonadotrophin ovarian stimulation is used to prevent ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and multiple pregnancy in polyfollicular cycles. However, one of the major problems to be resolved is corpus luteum function after follicular maturation and ovulation by mid-cycle GnRHa administration. The present report investigated the ...
