PMSG Finished Product for Animal

PMSG is a potent gonadotrophin, with dual FSH and LH activity. It is composed of two non-covalently associated alpha and beta subunits, and is heavily glycosylated on its CTP tail. This extensive glycosylation is of key importance for obtaining the extended half life in blood typical of PMSG. As PMSG binds to FSH and LH receptors, it stimulates follicular growth and follicular maturation during the days preceding oestrus and ovulation. Limited amounts of PMSG will result in induction and synchronization of ovulation in cattle and small ruminants, irrespective of their cyclicity prior to treatment. Administration of slightly higher amounts will modestly increase ovulation rate and litter size. Administration of high amounts of PMSG will result in superovulation, therefore resulting in the numerous blastocysts needed for embryo transfer. PMSG also has the potential to induce puberty in swine. Generic Name: Serum Gonadotrophin for Injection…
