Description
Progesterone (P4) is a type of steroid hormone found in the corpus luteum and placenta of cows. Changes in pregnancy concentration are a specific indicator of cow egg and fruit activity, and it plays an extremely important role in maternal reproduction and pregnancy maintenance. Therefore, the reproductive activity of cows can be monitored by the concentration of P4. The concentration of P4 exhibits characteristic changes depending on the reproductive physiological stage of the cow, and accurate diagnosis of early pregnancy in cows can be made by detecting progesterone levels.
Application
This detection board is used for early pregnancy diagnosis in cattle and has the characteristics of high accuracy, easy operation, rapid detection, room temperature storage, convenient carrying, and safe and harmless to both mother and fetus.
This detection board is mainly suitable for early pregnancy diagnosis of cows and beef cattle, as well as guiding timely artificial insemination.
The estrus cycle of cows is 21 days. Individual differences generally occur between 18-24 days. The timing for early pregnancy testing of mating cows is to start testing on the 18th day after mating, continuously for 5 days. If one day is negative, it indicates that the tested cow is not pregnant. At this time, progesterone should be at its lowest level. It is recommended to mate as soon as possible to effectively improve the conception rate; If all tests are positive after 5 days of connection, it indicates that the tested cow is pregnant and should enter pregnancy management. Another method is to closely observe whether the cattle show signs of estrus from the 18th day after mating. If there are signs of estrus, it can be detected immediately. For those who do not show signs of estrus, a test should be conducted 24 days after mating.
