The objective of the present study was to compare the effect of different dosages of equine chorionic gonadotrophin (eCG) on the follicular dynamics and hormonal concentrations in Alpine goats. During the breeding season, the goats were submitted to estrous and ovulation synchronization with a device containing progesterone for 14 days. Female goats (n=24) were divided at random into four groups of 6 animals each. On the day of dispositive removal, the animals received 0 (Control), 200, 300 and 400 UI […]
