Detection of Estrus by Three Methods

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 1977
Estrus was detected by three methods in 88 postpartum Holstein cows housed in tie-stalls and allowed free activity 1 to 2 h daily in separate exercise lots. Cows in each of three groups were observed visually for standing estrus by herdsmen. Cows (31) in Group I were observed only visually and served as controls, cows (33) in Group II were fitted with ...

Toxic Effects of Bisphenol A and Its Analogs on Ovarian Structure and Function: A Narrative Review of Ovary‐Focused Studies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used industrial chemical found in polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins and is recognized for its endocrine‐disrupting properties. Human exposure is common due to its presence in food packaging and everyday products. As BPA use has been restricted, structurally similar compounds such as BPS, BPB, BPAF, and BADGE

16 HOURS PHOTOPERIOD IN HOLSTEIN HEIFERS IN THE SUBTROPICS: EFFECTS IN DEVELOPMENT AND AGE TO FIRST ESTRUS

open access: yesEcosistemas y Recursos Agropecuarios, 2015
Both growth and milk production in heifer calves are stimulated by a long photoperiod, though this has not been proven yet in subtropical areas. To evaluate the effect of 16 hr of light (L16) on calves suckling (LAC) and/or pre-pubertal stages (PP) in a ...

Estrus Detection in Mares [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In a successful horse-breeding program, it is im¬portant to understand the reproductive cycles and be¬haviors of a mare. The reproductive cycle of a mare is called the estrous cycle and lasts an average of 21 days from one ovulation to the next.

Hematological and Genotoxic Effects of Subchronic Oral Exposure to a Mancozeb‐Based Fungicide in Female Mice

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extensive use of pesticides in modern agriculture has raised increasing concerns regarding the potential biological effects of repeated exposure to pesticide residues and commercial formulations. Mancozeb is a widely used ethylene‐bis‐dithiocarbamate fungicide; however, information on its hematological and genotoxic effects following ...

Investigations of Postpartum and Postweaning Factors That May Affect Subsequent Sow Reproductive Performance

open access: yes, 2004
Experiment one examined effects of season, parity, genotype, lactation length, and weaning-to-estrus interval on the postweaning duration of estrus (DE) and onset of estrus-to- ovulation interval (EOI) of sows in three farms.

Design, development and optimisation of veterinary intravaginal controlled release drug delivery systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This Thesis begins by discussing the application of controlled drug delivery to the intravaginal delivery of hormones to control the oestrous cycle of farmed animals, with particular emphasis on the delivery of progestagens to cattle and sheep.

Assessing Metabolic and Reproductive Consequences of Prenatal Paracetamol Exposure in Female CD1 Mice

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paracetamol is a widely used analgesic during pregnancy; however, emerging evidence suggests it may act as an endocrine/metabolism disrupting compound. Using an F1 female CD1 mouse model, this study scrutinized the long‐term metabolic and reproductive consequences linked to intrauterine paracetamol exposure.

Prolactin Inhibition Promotes Follicle Recruitment by Increasing PIKfyve Expression in Ewes During the Estrus Stage

open access: yesAnimals
Prolactin (PRL) plays a key role in the growth and ovulation of animal follicles, but its impact on follicular recruitment in ewes remains uncertain. In this study, a total of sixteen healthy ewes (Hu sheep, aged 2–3 years, with continuous reproduction ...

Timing of Insemination for Dairy Cows Identified in Estrus by a Radiotelemetric Estrus Detection System

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 1998
The optimal time of artificial insemination (AI) was determined from data for 2661 AI in 17 herds utilizing a radiotelemetric system for estrus detection that has the potential for continuous 24-h surveillance to monitor behavioral events associated with estrus.
