| Abstract |
|
Follicular fluid biochemical compounds are influenced by their
corresponding serum metabolites. In this study, 45 non-pregnant Holstein
cows were selected and divided into three categories (small, medium and
large). Blood samples were taken before slaughter from tail vein.
Glucose, urea and insulin were measured in serum and follicular fluid.
The results showed that by increasing the size of the follicles, glucose
and insulin concentration increased significantly (P<0.05), however,
urea concentration significantly (P<0.05) reduced in follicular fluid.
In general, these result showed the existence of significant relation
between the follicular size and concentration of these metabolites is a
useful indicator to realize their role in growth and maturation of
Oocytes.
