[Attempts at biotechnical induction of puberty in young female pigs. 2. Effects of various time intervals between one puberty induction with PMS and HCG to the following estrus synchronization on estrus and ovulation in animals about 190 days old].

A biological engineering approach to induce puberty in 125 young female fattening pigs aged 190 days was undertaken on the basis of a mixture of 500 IU PMS (Prolosanserum, Dessau) with 250 IU HCG (Gonabion, Dresden). The injections were made subcutaneously. Pronounced oestrus symptoms were recorded from the external genital organs of 80% of the probands up to ten days after injection, associated with toleration in 52.8% of them. Toleration usually started on the fourth to sixth days after injection. Cycles began to develop in 57.1% up to the next oestrus period. Animals with -/x weight increase per die of 400 g exhibited lower responses. Results in terms of heat and ovulation were lower along with shorter intervals, when oestric synchronisation was undertaken 53, 32, and 17 days after the induction of puberty (20 days Suisynchron, Bernburg; 750 IU PMS).

[Estrus synchronization in cattle by means of chlormadinone acetate ("Bovisynchron" Jenapharm) in the tropics. II. First results of the estrus synchronization of cattle with "Bovisynchron" at the Republic of Mali].

The first experiments are reported on oestrus synchronization in cattle in the Republic of Mali. The animals recieved Bovisynchron twice a day orally over a period of 15 days. The synchronization effect was marked; insemination was performed on the 5th and 6th day p.s. The intensity of the oestrus and especially the results of pregnancy are in close relationship to the breeding conditions and the general status of the animals. The oestrus synchronization is considered a favourable biotechnical method for regulating the reproduction provided that the animals are kept stationary or temporarily stationary.

[Effect of a gestagen used for the induction of synchronous estrus and fertilization of cattle].

The preparations Synchrosyn, Gestafortin, and Bovisynchron, having chlormadinonacetate as a common active ingredient, were used to induce synchronous estrus and fertilization in heifers. A total of 254 animals were involved belonging to the following breeds: Bulgarian Simmental, Bulgarian Red, Bulgarian Brown, and Black Pied. All three preparations were administered orally: Synchrosyn and Gestafortin were given with the forage at the rate of 10 mg chlormadinonacetate, and Bovisynchron was offered twice daily at an interval of 12 hours, rated 1 cu. cm each time, by means of a syringe (a daily dose of 20 mg clormadinonacetate).

Reproductive response of yearling beef heifers to a melengestrol acetate-prostaglandin F2 alpha estrus synchronization system.

A study was designed to evaluate estrus response and fertility after treatment with melengestrol acetate (MGA) and prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) in yearling beef heifers. Three hundred four heifers at three locations were allotted to one of two treatments: Treatment 1 served as a nonsynchronized control (CON); and heifers in Treatment 2 received .5 mg of MGA.animal-1.d-1 for 14 d and 25 mg of prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) 17 d after MGA (MGA-PGF). Heifers in CON and MGA-PGF groups were artificially inseminated 12 h after observed estrus for 21 and 6 d after PGF2 alpha, respectively. Blood samples were collected from each heifer 10 d before and on the day MGA feeding began and 10 d before and on the day PGF2 alpha was administered. Heifers with concentrations of serum progesterone greater than 1 ng/mL on either date before administration of MGA or PGF2 alpha were considered pubertal. More (P = .02) prepubertal heifers that received MGA attained puberty by initiation of breeding than did CON heifers (72 vs 45%, respectively). The proportion of heifers that displayed estrus within 6 d after PGF2 alpha was greater (P less than .001) for MGA-PGF than for CON heifers (77 vs 25%, respectively) but was also influenced by location (P = .03). Conception rate at first service for MGA-PGF heifers that attained puberty during MGA feeding and before PGF2 alpha was not different (P = .50) from that of CON that attained puberty during the same period.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
