Sixteen crossbred sows (Yorkshire x Duroc) were used to determine the effect of recombinantly derived porcine somatotropin (pST) on lactational performance and the pattern of plasma metabolites and growth rate of nursing pigs. Daily s.c. injections of either pST (8.22 mg.sow-1.d-1) or excipient were administered at 1000 on d 12 through d 29 of lactation. Jugular cannulas were inserted in three ...

The objective of the present study was to determine the accuracy and the negative prediction value of Pregnancy-Associated Glycoprotein (PAG) at 29 d post artificial insemination by ELISA. Blood serums of multiparous Holstein cows were used (n = 275). Pregnancy diagnosis was carried out by rectal palpation at 40 d and it was considered as reference test. Pregnancy results based on the PAG-ELISA...

Various studies support the view that analogs of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) exert some direct effects on mammary tumor cells. Recently, new LH-RH antagonists [Ac-D-Nal(2)1,D-Phe(pCl)2,D-Trp3,D-Hci6,D-Ala10]-LH-RH (SB-29) and [Ac-D-Nal(2)1,D-Phe(pCl)2,D-Trp3,D-Cit6,D-Ala10]LH-RH (SB-30), which are devoid of edematogenic effects, were synthesized. In this study, we examined whe...
