Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Changes in progesterone concentration of blood and milk were measured by radioimmunoassay in 10 Murrah buffalo up to 40 days after insemination. Progesterone concentration in blood plasma at estrus was .1 ng/ml which rose to a peak of 3.6 ng/ml on day 13. It continued to increase in animals that conceived but dropped to .6 ng/ml on 3 days before next estrus in those that failed to conceive. The average concentration of progesterone in milk was .5 ng/ml at estrus; it increased to 18 ng/ml on day 15, and thereafter it declined to 4.4 ng/ml 3 days preceding next estrus in nonpregnant animals. In pregnant animals, it was maintained and elevated further to 24.8 ng/ml on day 37. Progesterone in milk was four to five times higher than in blood plasma.
