EFFICACY OF USING GnRH ANTAGONIST AS PRETREATMENT ON SUPEROVULATION IN GOATS

Authors

Abstract

The effect of short term usage of GnRH antagonist as pretreatment on superovulation in goats was evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed using t-test and showed that usage of GnRH antagonist as pretreatment can improve number of recovered embryos (p<0.05), but there were no statistically difference between treatment group versus control group in term of number of corpura lutea and cystic follicles(p>0.05). This study showed that usage of GnRH antagonist can improve superovulatory response in term of embryo recovery in goats .This study showed that usage of GnRH antagonist can improve superovulatory response in term of embryo recovery in goats .
