Amniotic and Allantoic Fluid Levels of Oestrogens at Different Stages of Development in the Goat

Abstract

During our studies on certain aspects of reproduction in the goat (Lyngset 1971) we collected several samples of foetal fluid which were stored in the frozen state for further investigation. We have now processed this material with respect to contents of oestrogens.
