    In Vitro Maturation and In Vitro Fertilization of Caprine oocytes and its transfer in Black Bengal Goats
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1997) Debashis Chakraborty; J.N.Pandey
    A large number of embryos can be produced by IVM-IVF technique using abattoir ovaries for research and commercial purpose at a very low cost. The technique involves collection, maturation, fertilization and early embryonic development in suitable media. Oocytes were retrieved from the follicles of goat ovaries collected from slaughter house. The maximum retrieval of cocytes (72.70%) was obtained by dissection technique followed by 61.89% through aspiration and 53.31% through puncture technique. Highest retrieval (38.53%) of good quality pocytes was found through puncture technique followed by dissection (32.42%) and aspiration (25.74%) technique. The fair quality of oocytes were retrieved maximum through aspiration technique (52.23%) followed by dissection (46.93%) and puncture (41.40%) technique. The number of retrieved oocytes/ovary were 5.41 +0.33, 4.54 + 0.14 and 4.09 + 0.80 by dissection, aspiration and puncture technique respectively. Oocytes were cultured in TCM-199 + 10% EDS (medium 1) and TCM - 199 + 10% EDS + 10 IU/ml each of PMSG and HCG (medium 2). Maturation upto metaphase - II indicated a significantly higher proportion of oocytes 65.56% reaching metaphase II in medium 2 compared to 53.79% at the same stage in medium 1. Oocytes from larger follicles have better chance of embryonic development than their smaller counterpart. The incubation time

    Reproductive Performance in Prepubertal Gilts following Pregnant mare serum Gonadotropin and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin treatment
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1998) Gloria Tigga; S.K.Sinha
    The number of male and female piglets in of prepubertal and pubertal group was 48.15: 51.85 and 38.89 61.11 per cent respectively. The Chi-square revealed a non significant difference between these two groups. in value (0.38) the sex ratio litters It may thus be concluded that early maturity reproductive performance (oestrus with behaviour, can acceptable conception rate, gestation length, farrowing percentage) be achieved in prepubertal gilts following exogenous gonadotropins (PMSG and HCG single dose) treatment with good number of offspring at an early age.

    Superovulation and Embrya Collection from Prepubertal Goats and its transfer in Adult Block Bengal Goats
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1997) Nighat wafai; S.K. Sinha
    Thirty Black Bongal Goats (12 propubortal about 710 months old and 18 adult 112 to 3 years old) were taken for the present study. Out of 12 prepubertal goats, six were subjected to a super ovulatory treatment comprising of PMSG and HCG (Gr.l) and remaining six received no treatment and served as controls (Gr.1l) Eighteen adult goats were also divided into Group-III, Group-IV and Group-V with each having six animals. The goats under Group III also received a super ovulatory treatment (PMSG and HCG) for comparative studies whereas animals under Group IV and Group V served as recipients for Group I and Group III synchronization. Studies receiving PGF, alpha alone for estrus on synchronization, superovulation, embryo collection and its evaluation were carried out in prepubertal and adult goats. Normal transferable embryos were transferred in the adult recipient goats with a synchronous stage of estrus comparable to donor goats. The percentage of success of embryo transfer was evaluated on the basis of kids born. The observations thus recorded are summarized below. The average time interval between PMSG administration and onset of estrus in prepubertal and adult goats was 24.70+3.60 and 27.00+1.29 hours respectively. The variation in the time interval was, however, non-significant statistically. The control group didn't show signs of estrus during the comparative studies.

    Lactational Performance and Histo Physiological Changes of Udder Following Induction of Lactation in Goats
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1987) Om Prakash MIshra; J.N.Pandey
    It is concluded from this study that hormonal induction of lactation using natural and synthetic sex steroids can bring about normal growth and development of the mammary gland in goats. The animals under induced lactation yield milk which is normal in composition and there are no untoward effects on the health of the animals as a result of hormonal treatment.

    Reproduction Performance in Goatd Following Estrus Synchronization And Superovulation
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1989) Jshwar, Ajay Kumar; J. N. Panday
    Based on the above studies it is concluded that estrus synchronization can be successfully achieved through daily injections of progesterone for 16 days or two injec tions of prostaglandin P₂ 11 days apart, without loss of fertility. Supercovulatory dose of 750 IU, PMSG and 500 IU HCG was found to be effectives in increasing the number of mature and ovulated follicles for embryo transfer and other related studies. Changes in the blood metabolites did not reveal any significant deviations from the normal when the animals were treated with progesterone/prostaglandin and subjected to supercovulatory dose of PMSG and HCG, The ovarian histophysiological changes did not indicate any abnormality although the number and sizeof the follicies increased.

    STUDIES ON SUPEROVULATION EMBRYO COLLECTION AND ITS EVALUATION FOLLOWING HORMONAL TREATMENT IN BLACK BANGAL GOATS
    (Birsa Agricultural University, 1988) PANDEY, APARNA; SINHA, S.K.
    Pregnant more serum gonadotropin administration on day 10 and Prostaglandin administration on day 11 of estrus followed by Husan chorionic gonadotropin administration on the day of estrus were essentially required to synchronize estrus to achieve Maximus number of follicular growth and ovulation and maximum recovery of embryos. Treatment with Prostaglandin on 11th day of the cycle to normal cycling goats caused 100 percent synchronization of estrus. Treatment with HISG was essential for follicular growth and the additional treatment with HCG facilitated ovulation of the mature follicles. The above treatments had no adverse effect on the morphological characters and development of the embryos. It can be safely concluded that collection of embryos on day 4 of laparotomy following the above treatments resulted in better recovery of morphologically normal embryos

    Studies on certain physiologic performances and milk utilization following induction of lactation in infertile cows
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 1985) Sinha, Santosh Kumar; Pracad, A.
    Seven days gonadal steroids treatment were essentially required to develop the mammary glands and to initiate lactation in infertile animals. Success of induction of lactation in 72.21 percent of the infertile cows and heifers under the present study provides a new hope to bring back a majority of such cows into production. Return of certain percentage of treated animals to regular estrus and also to conception and normal calving further widens the scope to transform infertile animals into reproductive status. Additional treatment with chlorpromazine hydrochloride to lactating animals indicated that a significant increased lactation length with increase in total milk production could be achieved whereas, this additional treatment had no gain over the conception rate. The chlorpromazine hydrochloride alone proved to be ineffective to cause growth of the udder and induction of lactation in infertile animals. The composition of milk from induced animals though differed initially from those of freshly parturient cows in respect of protein and fat content but became normal by day 28th of induction of lactation. Biological assay of induced milk carried out on mice and pups revealed the presence of some estrogenic materials in it upto day 30th or prior to it. Further biological assay of the induced milk indicated that though the estrogenic materials or their metabolites remained present in the induced milk, the histophysiological studies suggested that the estrogenic metabolites in such concentrations in the milk of these days had no adverse effects on important regulatory endocrine glands and liver either in mice or pups of both sexes, Lastly it can be safely and strongly advocated that a good percentage of infertile animals could be reconverted into productive and reproductive status, and their milk may be safely consumed after three to four weeks of induction of lactation.
