Five mares that developed idiopathic persistent corpus luteum (PCL) were compared with 5 mares with apparently normal interovulatory intervals (IOIs). Progesterone (P4) and a metabolite of prostaglandin F2α (PGFM) were assayed daily beginning on the ...
As ovarian toxicity is often a safety concern for cancer therapeutics, identification of ovarian pathology is important in early stages of preclinical drug development, particularly when the intended patient population include women of child-bearing ...

The objective of the present study was to examine the relationship between the gases in a cow's uterine environment and its ovarian physiological structures using the sunflower optimisation algorithm (SFOA) deployed in a device called Metrisör, devel...
