The long-term effects of immunization against inhibin in camels were investigated after 5 months from initial immunization.
A hormonal protocol was established to control the continuous ovarian hyperstimulation and synchronize ovulation time in the immunized camels.
The efficiency of the previously mentioned protocol on synchronizing ovulation was validated compared to conventional hormonal superovulation and timed ovulation.
The results revealed that immunization against inhibin has a prolonged effect in camels, with a superovulatory response comparable to conventional hormonal superovulation.
The present investigation provides a regimen to successfully control continuous ovarian hyperstimulation and synchronize ovulation time in the immunized camels.
Considering disadvantages of using exogenous gonadotropin to induce superovulation, inhibin immuneneutralization may represent a sufficient alternative to achieve this goal.
