The use of exogenous gonadotrophins in puberty inducement and ovulation synchronization is a technique that has a positive influence on the management of swine. The purpose of this study was to verify the effects of a second gonadotrophin treatment [equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) and luteinizing hormone (LH), intramuscularly (i.m.)] upon the second oestrus synchronization and fertility in...

Physiological principals underlying synchronization of estrus identified 1) hormones naturally controlling the estrous cycle of cattle, 2) hormones commercially available, 3) mode of action of the hormones commercially available, and 4) when/how they might be used to manage estrus and breeding of beef cattle. The products available are progestogens (melengestrol acetate (MGA) and progesterone d...

Background: Animal and in vitro studies have shown that 25-OH vitamin D plays a significant role in different parts of body. Few data exist about the role of 25- OH vitamin D in reproduction. Insufficient levels during pregnancy are potentially associated with increased risk of preeclampsia, insulin resistance and gestational diabetes mellitus. Recently, few studies have assessed the prognostic...

Background The relationship between metabolism and reproduction has been always considered as an important topic in female endocrinology. It seems that leptin is one of the involved factors in infertility. Leptin, in addition to regulating body weight plays an important role in regulation of endocrine, reproductive and immune systems. The aim of this stduy is to compare serum and follicular flu...

synchronization of rumen available protein and energy is one of the conceptual methods to increase the efficiency of utilization of nutrients by the ruminants the concept of synchronization energy and protein was first by jhonson, implying that maximum microbial protein synthesis could be achieved by matching the rate of organic matter and protein degradation. synchronization of rumen available...

BACKGROUND According to the current World Health Organization Classification of Lymphoid Tumours, follicular lymphoma is subclassified into three grades according to the number of centroblasts. Follicular lymphoma grade 3 can be further divided into types A and B. Almost all available genetic data on grade 3B follicular lymphomas have been generated from tumors with an additional diffuse large ...

in this paper, the synchronization of a new hyperchaotic complex system based on t-s fuzzy model is proposed. first the considered hyperchaotic system is represented by t-s fuzzy model equivalently. then by using the parallel distributed compensation (pdc) method and by applying linear system theory and exact linearization (el) technique, a fuzzy controller is designed to realize the synchroniz...

Estrous synchronization and artificial insemination (AI) are reproductive management tools available to beef producers for over 30 years. Synchronization of the estrous cycle has the potential to shorten the calving season, increase calf uniformity, and enhance the possibilities for utilizing AI. Artificial insemination allows producers the opportunity to infuse superior genetics into their ope...
