An experiment on ultrasonographic studies of follicular activities in clomiphene citrate treated
anoestrus cows was conducted. Ultrasound scanning was performed to record the follicular activities
on alternate day throughout one estrous cycle for control group and from drug administration to
induction of estrus in treatment group. The postpartum induced estrus (treatment group) and regular
estrus (control group) differed highly significantly (p is less than 0.01) with respect to number of follicles involved
in ovulatory wave (6.67 ± 0.21 Vs 5.00 ± 0.45) and significantly (pis less than 0.05) with respect to growth
rate (1.82 ± 0.34 Vs 1.04 ± 0.94 mm/day) and increase in diameter of dominant follicle (7.58 ±
0.72 Vs 10.2 ± 0.47 mm). Maximum diameter of ovulatory follicle in induced estrus was greater
than regular estrus (16.12 ± 0.56 Vs15.18 ± 0.47 mm), however, it differed non-significantly
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
