Abstract:This study aims to investigate the relationship between metabolic parameters and the number of embryos produced in superovulated cows with high genetic characteristics in milk yield. Eighteen Holstein donors were treated with classic superovulation protocols, AI and flushing. During superovulation, decreasing doses of FSH (follicle‐stimulating hormone) were administered at 12‐h intervals for 4 days. Plasma insulin‐like growth factor (IGF1), glucose (GLU), beta‐hydroxybutyric acid (BHB), non‐esterified fatty ac… Show more
