The aim of the present study was to determine plasma haptoglobin concentrations in cows in
field conditions. Experiments were carried out a total of 106 cows, divided in 5 groups. The …

The presence of heparin and a mixture of penicillamine, hypotaurine, and epinephrine
(PHE) solution in the in vitro fertilization (IVF) media seem to be a prerequisite when bovine …

The antioxidant haptoglobin (Hp) is an acute-phase protein responsive to infectious and
inflammatory diseases. Hp and somatic cell counts (SCC) are sharply elevated in bovine …

Haptoglobin, prepared from pig plasma, was separated into two components by gel filtration
in guanidine hydrochloride solution, after reduction and aminoethylation. These were …

Calves derived from IVP embryos may suffer from the large offspring syndrome that has
been related to effects of in vitro culture on the intrinsic quality of the embryo. Limited …

A monoclonal antibody (M1) was produced against seminal fluid heparin-binding proteins
(HBP) from a vasectomized bull. In the first part of this study, the presence of HBP in sperm …

Haptoglobin (Hp) is an acute-phase protein; its plasma levels increase consistently in
response to infection and inflammation. The concentration of human plasma Hp is ranged …

Cattle production, whether intensive or extensive, exposes animals to a variety of stressors.
These stressors can reduce growth through, altered priorities for nutrient utilization, and …

Haptoglobin (Hp) is an acute phase protein. The plasma concentration of Hp increases
rapidly following tissue damage associated with infection and inflammation. Thus Hp levels …

Heparin, one of glycosaminoglycans, is reported to induce acrosome reaction in ejaculated
bovine sperm in vitro. The objectives of this paper is to examine the effect of heparin on …
