Arachidonic acid metabolism by early ovine embryos and the role of prostaglandins in one aspect of embryonic development

Most embryonal mortality occurs during early embryonic development. Two experiments were designed to study aspects of early embryonic development. Experiment 1 was to determine if early ovine embryos were capable of metabolizing arachidonic acid. Cyclic ewes were estrous synchronized with 6⍺-methyl-...
