The aim of this clinical study was to investigate the effects of oxytocin and cloprostenol application via umbilical artery on the time and rate of fetal membrane removal in cows with dystocia immediately after parturition. Metabolic profiles indicated certain serum biochemical parameters that were also determined in the cows. The study was performed on 60 cows with dystocia. All of the cows were randomly divided into 3 equal subgroups. The first group was injected with 100 IU oxytocin, while the second group was treated with 0.15 mg cloprostenol and the third group (the control group) received 10 mL 0.9% NaCl …

Progesterone Concentrations And Pregnancy Rates Of Repeat Breeder Cows Following Postinsemination Prid And Gnrh Treatments*, Osman Ergene

Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of progesterone (PRID) application and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) injection after artificial insemination on serum progesterone concentration and pregnancy rates in repeat breeder cows. In group 1, repeat breeder cows received an injection of GnRH on day 12 after artificial insemination. In group 2, repeat breeder cows received PRID from day 4 to day 11; group 3 received PRID from day 11 to day 18. Blood samples were obtained from all treated cows to assay serum progesterone concentrations on application days, 7 days after application, and 21 days after artificial insemination. …
