[en] An experiment was carried out to assess the effectiveness of the synthetic prostaglandin, Prosolvin, on oestrous synchronization in the Damascus does inside the breeding season, in addition to other related parameters. Ten female Damascus goats aged around 3.5 years, with an average live-weight of 56.3 kg were used. The does were injected intramuscularly with 7.5 mg of Prosolvin twice, with an interval of 12 days. A fertile Damascus buck was introduced into all does 18 hours after the second injection of Prosolvin for oestrus detection and natural mating. Progesterone levels were measured in the sera of the does' blood using radioimmunoassay (RIA) kits. The results indicate that oestrus appeared in the does on average in 83.3 hours (range: 51-196 hours; 3.47 days, range: 2.13-8.17 days) after the second injection of Prosolvin. Average concentration of progesterone at mating was 0.23 n mol/l. The treatment, using a dose level at 7.5 mg of Prosolvin, had no clear effect on synchronizing the oestrous cycle of Damascus does inside the breeding season, nor resulted in formation of active corpora lutea in the ovaries of most does, However, the treatment had a luteolytic effect on the active corpora lutea present in the ovaries, where progesterone concentration dropped sharply within 24 hours after the second Prosolvin injection. The treatment had no effect on the duration of pregnancy or birth weight. it could be concluded that the dose level at 7.5 mg of Prosolvin, had no clear effect on synchronizing the oestrous cycle of Damascus does inside the breeding season and other doses of Prosolvin could be tested on Damascus does to achieve the optimal dose.
