The effect of replacement of in vitro maturation medium completely with the buffalo follicular fluid (buFF) on in vitro oocyte maturation of buffalo oocytes was studied. 5 to 8 buffalo cumulus oocyte complexes were cultured in a single drop with each of the eight media studied i.e., M199+steer serum (10% v/v), M199+steer serum (10% v/v)+PMSG, M199+buFF (10% v/v), M199+buFF (10% v/v)+PMSG, M199+buFF (50% v/v), M199+buFF (50% v/v)+ PMSG, buFF (100%) and buFF+PMSG at $39^{\circ}C$ and 5% $CO_2$ in air for 24 h. Supplementation of M199 with Steer serum alone resulted in IVM rate of 35% only. When the above medium was supplemented with PMSG, the maturation rate rallied to 82%. Significant increase in the maturation rates were observed when M199 was supplemented with increasing levels of buFF. A further increase in the maturation rate was also obtained when PMSG was incorporated into the medium of M199 supplemented with buFF. The rate of maturation was to the tune of 91% when oocytes were matured in buFF alone which was increased non significantly on the addition of PMSG. Highest maturation rate (97%) obtained with M199+buFF (50%v/v)+PMSG did not differ significantly from that obtained by either M199+buFF (10%v/v)+PMSG or buFF+PMSG. It is suggested that buFF alone without any supplementation can form the effective in vitro maturation medium for buffalo oocytes.

An experiment was conducted using indigenous Kivircik ewes to evaluate the effect of intravaginal progestagen sponges, containing 30 mg of fluorogestone acetate (FGA), followed by administration of pregnant mare serum gonadotrophin (PMSG) on inducing synchronized oestrus in the season and fertility. Three times of PMSG administration relative to sponge withdrawal (24 h before (n = 30), at (n = 29) or 24 h after (n= 29)) and two routes of PMSG administration (intramuscular (n = 46) and subcutaneous (n = 42) were compared for estrous response, number of multiple births and fecundity rates. There were no significant differences in terms of estrous response, due to differences in the time and route of PMSG administration. Lambing percentage, proportion of multiple births and fecundity were 75.6, 51.6 and 114.6%, respectively. The administration had a significant effect on lambing (p<0.05), multiple birth and fecundity rates (p<0.01). The subcutaneous administration of PMSG resulted in a significantly higher lambing rate (p<0.05) and fecundity rate (p<0.01), compared to the intramuscular injection of the PMSG.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of PMSG and/or HCG treatment on superovulation and fertilization in the golden hamster. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. The female groups treated with 30 IU PMSG or 30 IU PMSG＋25IU HCG ovulated more eggs than those treated with 15 IU PMSG or 15 IU PMSG＋25IU HCG(P<.01). All the PMSG treatment groups superovulated as compared with the untreated control group(P<.01). There were no differences on fertilization rate between the superovulated groups and the control group. 2. The fertilized ova were obtained only by the female group treated with 30 IU PMSG at 1000hr on day 1(morning of ovulation) of the estrous cycle. 3. The intervals between PMSG and HCG injection necessary to obtain the consistent superovulation and fertilized ova were 66hr and 72hr. 4. The superovulated ova were collected from oviduct 48hr, oviduct and uterus 72hr, and uterus 96 hr after mating. 80.3% of two cell, 75.8% of eight cell, and 73.7% of blastocyst of the ovulated ova occurred 48hr, 72hr, and 96hr after mating, respectively.

As a preliminary experiment to establish the process of embryo transfer in rabbit, present sutdies were carried out with 75 mature Japanese of ovary to pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin(PMSG) and human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG) and collection rate of embryos at various times after hCG injection. Female rabbits were superovulated using 50∼100IU hCG or 75∼100IU PMSG and 50∼751IU hCG injected 83hrs apart. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The average number of growth follicles obtained from all of rabbits treated with hCG or PMSG-hCG was 28.1. PMSG-hCG treatment group (30.9) was clearly increased more than hCG treatment group (16.7). 2. In ovulation score, PMSG-hCG treatment group (21.0) was increased more than hCG treatment group (7.9), showing the same trends in the growth of follicles. 3. The ovulation rate per follicles developed was higher in the rabbits treated with 100 IU PMSG and 75 IU hCG (18.9%) than that from the other groups. 4. The oviduct score (72.9%) was inclined to higher than that from uteri (57.1%) in score of embryo collection.

This paper describes development of hardware simulator for the PMSG wind power system, which was designed considering wind characteristic, blade characteristic and blade inertia compensation. The simulator consists of three major parts, such as wind turbine model using induction motor, PMSG generator, converter-inverter set. and control system. The turbine simulator generates torque and speed signals for a specific wind turbine with respect to given wind speed. This torque and speed signals are scaled down to fit the input of 2kW PMSG. The PMSG-side converter operates to track the maximum power point, and the grid-side inverter controls the active and reactive power supplied to the grid. The operational feasibility was verified by computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC, and the implementation feasibility was confirmed through experimental works with a hardware set-up.

Nine immature 30-day-old female rats were injected sc at 0800 hr with pregnant mare serum gonadotrophin(PMSG) to induce ovulation and mating. Fifty-six hours later the animals were placed with mature male rats overnight (one female and one male). Five of 9 immature female rats treated with PMSG were pregnant and allowed to maintain the pregnancy to term. Three of 5 pregnant rats were failed to maintain pregnancy to term. Two of 5 pregnant rats seemed to be developed normally and increased abdominal enlargement as pregnancy progresses, but did not occurred parturition on day of 43 or 48 of pregnancy, respectively. On day 44 or 49, pregnant rats were killed and examined uterus and ovaries. There was no fetus but approximately 50∼60ml. of mucopurulent fluids were accumulated in the uterine cavity and 40 or 42 corpora lutea persisted in the ovaries. Pyometra was developed after coitus in PMSG-treated immature female rat.

This paper describes a scaled model development of PMSG wind power system using wind turbine simulator and matrix converter. The wind turbine simulator, which consists of an induction motor with vector drive, calculates the output torque of a specific wind turbine using simulation software and sends the torque signal to the vector drive after scaling down the calculated value. The operational feasibility of interconnected PMSG system with matrix converter was verified by computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC software. The feasibility of hardware implementation was conformed by experimental works with a laboratory scaled-model of wind power system. The simulation and experimental results confirm that matrix converter can be effectively applied for the PMSG wind power system.

Responsiveness of the testis to pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin (PMSG) was studied in immature Nili-Ravi buffalo bulls. Four month old bull calves weighing between 66 to 100 kg raised under uniform condition, were treated with 1000 IU PMSG or vehicle, daily, for six days. PMSG induced an increase in the size of the testis, enlargement of the seminiferous tubules and activation of the spermatogonia. The number of differentiated Leydig cells in the testis of gonadotropin treated animals increased considerably over that of the control testes. A significant increase in plasma testosterone concentrations was observed 24 h following the first injection of PMSG and the levels continued to increase until day 6. In vehicle treated animals plasma testosterone levels remained more or less at pretreatment values. The data suggest that buffalo bull testis is functionally responsive to gonadotropin at an early stage of prepubertal development.

고나도트로핀제재에 의한 다배란처치는 난소 스테로이드 호르몬(estrogens, progestins 및 androgens)의 정교한 균형을 깨트림으로써 자궁에 바람직하지 못한 영향을 미친다. 따라서 이러한 다배란처치가 자궁조직에 미치는 영향을 검사하기 위하여, 28일령의 189마리 미성숙래트에 4IU, 20IU 또는 40IU의 임마혈청성 고나도트로핀 (PMSG)을 투여하고, 그후 10일까지 매 24시간 간격으로 실험동물을 희생시켰다 자궁조직의 장기적 효과는 4IU 또는 40IU의 PMSG를 투여한 12마리의 래트를 30일째에 희생시켜 검사하였다. 그리고 일부 성숙래트의 자궁은 PMSG를 투여한 미성숙래트의 자궁과 비교하는데 공시되었다. PMSG투여후 2일부터 5일까지 대조군(4IU) 자궁의 형태학적, 조직학적 변화는 성숙래트의 발정주기 동안의 변화와 거의 동일하였다. 그러나 대배란처치용량(20IU 또는 40IU)의 PMSG는 투여 후 2일째에는 자궁 간질조직의 hypertrophy와 3일째에는 자궁내강 상피세포의 focal papillary hyperplasia를 형성시켰다. 20IU와 40IU의 PMSG를 투여한 후 $17{\beta}$-estradiol 혈중농도는 투여 1일 후에 대조군(4IU)보다 현저하게(P<0.005 및 P<0.05) 증가하였고, androgen농도는 투여 1일 후에 baseline으로부터 현저하게(P<0.05 및 P<0.005) 증가하여 2일과 3일 사이에 최고에 도달하였다. 20IU PMSG 투여군에 있어서, hyperplasia현상은 투여 3일 후부터 점차 퇴행되어 10일까지는 완전히 소멸되었다. 그러나 40IU PMSG투여군에서의 hyperplasia는 투여 6일 후까지 뚜렷이 진행되었다. 이러한 결과는 혈중 estrogen 농도의 상승과 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 사료된다. 왜냐하면 40IU PMSG투여군에 있어서의 $17{\beta}$-estradiol 혈중농도가 투여 4일 후에 최고에 도달하였으며, 이는 4IU PMSG를 투여한 대조군과 20IU PMSG 투여군보다 현저하게(P<0.001) 높았기 때문이다. 그리고 40IU PMSG투여군에 있어서의 hyperplasia 현상은 투여 6일과 10일 사이에 약간씩 퇴행됨을 보였고, 30일까지는 완전히 소멸되었다. 본 연구결과는, 다배란처치로 인하여 난조조직으로부터 과잉 분비되는 estrogen 및 androgen에 대한 자궁조직의 사전노출이, 위에서 언급한 비정상적 hyperplasia형성의 가능한 원인적 요소가 됨을 시사한다.
