Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the effect of repeated ultrasound-guided transvaginal retrieval of oocytes recovery, estrous cycle and ovarian adhesion in Korean native, Hanwoo heifers. Heifers were at unknown stages of the estrous cycle at the start of experiments in which all follicles $\geq$6mm in diameter were ablated. The results obtained in this study were as follows; Follicle developing number and oocytes collected number were no effected to repeated OPU to nine session, 4 e.a range oocytes collected to repeated OPU session. Oocytes were observated follicles were 8.7$\pm$4.2 e.a, collected oocytes were 4.1$\pm$3.4 e.a to two times collected per week and observated follicles was 10.2$\pm$6.1 e.a, collected oocytes were 4.3$\pm$2.9 e.a to one times collected per week, but no difference significantly(P<0.05). Ovaries adhesive percentage to repeated OPU was eight ovaries adhisived(20%) of forty ovaries, three ovaries(7.5%) to 1~3 times oocytes collected, four ovaries(l0%) to 4~6 times, one ovaries(2.5%) to 7~9 times oocytes collected session. To repeated OPU effection, ovaries adhisive heifers were long estrous cycle(>25 day) to 7 heads(87.5%) of 8 head, non-adhesive ovaries heifers were 5 heads(41.7%) were long estrous cycle to repeated OPU 12 heads. Although, now unknown about the dynamics of follicles wave and about functional changes to repeated OPU ovaries, more question about ovaries adhesive cause remain.
본 연구는 한우에 있어서 초음파기기를 이용하여 반복적으로 생체내 난자를 회수시 난자회수에 미치는 영향과 시술후의 난소 유착과 같은 부작용을 조사하기 위하여 실시한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 난포란의 채란빈도에 따른 채란수에서는 주 2회 시술시 난포수는 8.7$\pm$4.2개로 주 1회 시술의 10.2$\pm$6.1개보다 다소 적었으나 유의적인 차이는 인정되지 않았으며, 채란수도 각각 4.1$\pm$3.4개 및 4.3$\pm$2.9개로 유의적인 차이가 인정이 되지 않았다(P<0.05). 2. 반복적으로 9회 난포란을 채란한 경우 40개의 난소중 8개 (20%)가 유착이 발생하였으며 1~3 채란시 3개 (37.5%), 4~6 채란시 4개 (50%) 7~9회 채란시 1개(12.5%)가 유착이 발생하였다. 3. 반복적인 난포란 채란후 난소의 유착 여부에 따른 공란우의 발정주기를 조사한 결과 난소 유착을 보인 공란우의 8두중 7두(87.5%) 25일 이상의 장발정주기를 보였으며, 유착이 일어나지 않은 12두 중 정상 발정주기는 6두(50.0%), 단 발정주기는 1두(8.3%), 장발정주기는 5두(41.7%)였다.
