In the study, 6 donors (n=6) cow of Selenge (n=3) and Alatau breeds were selected for superovulation. Superovulation treatment artificial insemination (AI) Donor Cow Regardless estrous cycle, Insert Controlled Internal Drug Release (CIDR; Hamilton, New Zealand) to from 5th day after inserting CIDR, diminishing inject Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH; Kyoritsu Seiyaku Corporation, Japan.) 36IU ...

The objective of the present study was to determine whether oestrous detection with the help of oestrous detection aids during the Heatsynch without timed AI protocol is equally effective with the progesterone-combined protocol in dairy heifers. A total of 148 heifers were randomly assigned to one of the two groups. A group of heifers treated with Heatsynch with heat detection aids (n = 72) rec...

We hypothesize that insemination with fresh extended semen will improve the AI pregnancy rate due to its prolonged longevity in female reproductive tract compared to frozen thawed semen. The objective of this trial was to determine the effect of fresh and frozen semen on fixed-time AI pregnancy rate in beef cows synchronized with progesterone based CO-Synch protocols and inseminated at differen...

We compared synchronization and pregnancy rates, and the increase in blood progesterone concentrations during luteal development, between (1) Ovsynch plus an intravaginal controlled internal drug release (CIDR) device protocol followed by timed embryo transfer (timed ET), and (2) a conventional estrus synchronization method using PGF(2 alpha) and ET in suckled postpartum Japanese Black beef cow...

Spring-calving, crossbred (1/4 to 3/8 Brahman) primiparous (n = 56) and multiparous (n = 102) beef cows were used to evaluate the effects of progesterone, delivered via a controlled internal drug-releasing (CIDR) device, and prostaglandin F(2alpha) (PGF(2alpha)) on estrous behavior, synchronization rate, initiation of estrous cycles, and pregnancy rate during a 2-yr period. To determine luteal ...

Little is known about variations in the levels of access and satisfaction within the disabled Medicare population. Based on the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey (MCBS), beneficiaries under 65 years of age were classified by original reason for disability (mental versus physical). Those with a mental disability were less likely to have a private physician as a usual source; were less satisfie...

An experiment was conducted to compare the estrus induction response, pattern, endometrial regeneration and pregnancy rates following treatment with CIDR plus PGF2 α between normally calved (NC) retained fetal membranes (RFM) affected water buffaloes. A total of 32 buffaloes including 16 treated for RFM NC were selected divided into 4 groups as I II, III IV respectively. Buffaloes group deworme...

Cervicovaginal mucus is a mixture of mucins, ions, salts, and water, the proportions which change during reproductive cycle. It suspected that this emits an important volatile signal indicative state female. The objective study was to identify organic compounds (VOC) in bovine cervicovaginal are modulated estrous cycle could potentially be used as biomarkers estrus ovulation. collected from cro...

The objective of this experiment was to compare two progestins and three treatments for synchronizing follicular wave emergence and ovulation in protocols for fixed-time AI in beef heifers. On d 0 (beginning of the experiment), Angus and Angus-Simmental cross beef heifers at random stages of the estrous cycle either received a CIDR-B device (n = 257) or were started on 0.5 mg x anima(-1) x d(-1...

We evaluated whether a fixed-time AI (TAI) protocol could yield pregnancy rates similar to a protocol requiring detection of estrus, or detection of estrus and AI plus a clean-up TAI for heifers not detected in estrus, and whether adding an injection of GnRH at controlled internal drug release (CIDR) insertion would enhance fertility in CIDR-based protocols. Estrus in 2,075 replacement beef hei...
