Effect of insulin administration on peripheral concentration of luteinizing hormone in goat

Abstract

Effect of exogenous administration of insulin on peripheral concentration of luteinizing hormone was studied in I 6 non
descript adult cyclic goats by collecting the blood samples at every 2 hours interval starting from onset of estrus upto 24 hours using
standard diagnostic kit. There was no significant difference in average concentration of LH, its peak, onset of estrus to LH peak
interval and duration of LH surge between insulin treated and control groups. The results indicate that exogenous administration of
insulin has no effect on peripheral concentration of LH.
