Popis: | Twenty ewe lambs received either 0 or 1 IU of Lente insulin kg−1 body weight from day 12 of the estrous cycle until 24 h after estrus. Blood samples were collected at 15-min intervals for 6 h after treatment on days 12, 14 and 16 of the estrous cycle. Following insulin injection, serum insulin was elevated (P 0.10) luteinizing hormone secretory characteristics, ovulation rate, or subsequent litter size.
