Effect of small-dose multiple injection of FN-RH [receptal] on the testis and epididymis of prepupertal goats

ABSTRACT

The effect of Gn-RH on the testis and epididymis was studied in immature Balady bucks. The experiment started when the bucks were at 70 days of age. A total of 10 animals was randomly divided into two groups. A treatment group included 6 bucks treated for continuous 15 days with a daily dose of 0.5 ml [0.002 mg Buserlin, Hoechst Co.] Gn-RH given s.c., then allowed 5 days rest. A control group involved 4 bucks received no treatment. The results indicated a favorable effect of Gn-RH on the sexual activity of immature bucks
