THE INDUCTION OF OVULATION IN THE CHINCHILLA
Copyright policy )THE INDUCTION OF OVULATION IN THE CHINCHILLA
SUMMARY Forty-five adult chinchilla (Chinchilla laniger) were used to investigate the ovulatory response to pregnant mare serum (PMS) and human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) administered by intraperitoneal injection according to various regimes. Ovulation occurred (even during pregnancy) only when both PMS and HCG were given; 87·5% animals ovulated with a mean number of 3·7 ova, but only 26 out of the 119 ova were recovered. The range of ova ovulated per ovary was 1–7 and the range per animal was 1–12. The reasons for the low recovery rate of eggs and the general efficacy of the hormone regimes are discussed.
