This study investigated the effect of GnRH analogues on inducing ovulation of dominant follicle (DF)and subsequent corpus luteum (CL) lifespan in the presence of norgestomet implant in Holstein heifers. Onday 6 to 8 of the estrous cycle (day 0 of the experiment), all heifers (n=15) received norgestomet implantfollowed by prostaglandin injection on days 0 and 1. On day 4, group 1 (n=4) and 2 (n=...

How oocytes are transferred into an oviduct with a receptive environment remains poorly known. We found that glands of the Drosophila female reproductive tract, spermathecae and/or parovaria, are required for ovulation and to promote sperm storage. Reducing total secretory cell number by interferring with Notch signaling during development blocked ovulation. Knocking down expression after adult...

The ability to identify the precise time of ovulation is important for women who want to plan conception or practice contraception. Here, we review the current literature on various methods for detecting ovulation including a review of point-of-care device technology. We incorporate an examination of methods to detect ovulation that have been developed and practiced for decades and analyze the ...

While presuppositions are often thought to be lexically encoded, researchers have repeatedly argued for ‘triggering algorithms’ that productively classify certain entailments as presuppositions. We provide new evidence this position and sketch a novel triggering rule. On the empirical side, we show generated from iconic expressions (such gestures) one may not seen before, which suggests algorit...

Abstract This study assessed the effects of social dominance on behavioral estrus and ovarian parameters dairy goats subjected to synchronous induction during non-breeding season. Synchronous was induced in 23 allocated collective pens. Ovarian ultrasonography performed at 12 h intervals from device removal ovulation. Upon onset (EO) detection, were immediately removed Dominance scored accordin...

Because dates of coitus, ovulation, and fertilization are usually unknown, examination of the duration of gestation in a large series of women is necessarily based on the period of amenorrhoea from onset of menstruation to birth. The considerable variation in this period is due partly to variation in the interval between onset of menstruation and ovulation, and partly to variation in the time b...

Background The pattern of Islamic fasting differs from other forms of fasting, therefore its effect on health also differs. This research studies the effect of Islamic fasting on gonadotropin hormones around the time of the ovulatory cycle and ovulation. MaterialsAndMethods This self-controlled study was performed on 24 adult females. Blood sampling was performed during Ramadan and two months l...

The chromatographic separation of gonadotropin-inhibiting substance in the extract obtained from adult male urine according to the method of Johnsen was attempted on a Sephadex G-100 column. The ovulation assay was employed to detect the inhibitor in the fractions using female mice, 19-20 days old, which received PMS and HCG to obtain a minimum constant ovulation. In the chromatography of the e...
