Effect of dose and frequency of prostaglandin F2α treatments during a 7-day Ovsynch protocol with an intravaginal progesterone releasing device on luteal regression and pregnancy outcomes in lactating Holstein cows

Journal of Dairy Science, 2023
: Our objective was to evaluate the effect of 3 different Ovsynch protocols on progesterone (P4) and pregnancies per artificial insemination (P/AI), where all cows received a P4 releasing intravaginal device (PRID) from d 0 until d 8.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Discrete Timed Automata [PDF]

, 2005
MONA implements an efficient decision procedure for the logic WS1S, and has already been applied in many non-trivial problems. Among these, we follow on from previous work done by Smith and Klarlund on the verification of a sliding-window protocol.

Factors That Optimize Reproductive Efficiency in Dairy Herds with an Emphasis on Timed Artificial Insemination Programs

Animals, 2021
Reproductive efficiency is closely tied to the profitability of dairy herds, and therefore successful dairy operations seek to achieve high 21-day pregnancy rates in order to reduce the calving interval and days in milk of the herd.
