No published information are available on the reproductive indices of local Abadeh does reared innorthern Fars province, southern Iran. This study was conducted to determine the duration of the breedingseason, and the length and duration of the oestrous cycle. Twenty single parity 2-year-old does from Abadeh(weighing 19–26 kg) were purchased and transferred to the School of Veterinary Medicine ...

The behavioural assays were carried out in a Y-maze wherein intact, castrated and testosterone-treated male mice were exposed to oestrus and non-oestrus urine samples. The intact male mice investigated more frequently and spent more time in the Y-maze arm with oestrus urine than in that with non-oestrus urine. In contrast, the castrated mice were not attracted to oestrus urine, whereas testoste...

The aim of the present study was to examine the distribution of oestrogen receptor alpha (ERα) in the uterus of sows with reproductive disturbances as well as to study the expression of ERα in relation to plasma oestradiol-17β (E2) and progesterone (P4) concentrations in the blood. Crossbred 3–4 parity Lithuanian White x Danish Landrace breed sows presenting various reproductive disturbances we...

PURPOSE This study aims to determine the frequency of opthalmyomyiasis externa and the ocular findings of disease in Southern Khorasan. METHODS All patients referred to the emergency department of Valiaser hospital during the year 2011 with external ophthalmomyiasis were enrolled in this study. The diagnosis of external ophthalmomyiasis was made according to clinical findings and the presence...

the objective was to quantify and compare cow cervical morphology on oestrus vs. non-oestrus daysusing a new farm technology. the cervical tissues were videotaped using a cervixscope involving newcamera equipment in four holstein cows on multiple oestrus and non-oestrus days to score tissue morphology as altered by oestrus. the non-oestrous days were in diestrus phases. the videotaped records w...

Fladioimmunoassay technique was used to determine the concentrations of progesterone in serum, fore-milk and saliva of 40 Nili-Ravi buffaloes during pro-oestrus, oestrus, met-oestrus and di-oestrus. Progesterone concentrations during oestrus were uniformly lower in all experimental body fluids; the highest concentrations were found during the mid luteal phase. Although the hormonal trend was si...

Acta Vet. Brno 2007, 76: 391-397. Synchronization of oestrus has been used to increase reproductive effi ciency in most animals, including ewes. The aim of the present study was to compare the effec...
