Avaliação do fluxo sanguíneo do folículo ovulatório e corpo lúteo de fêmeas bubalinas por ultrassonografia Doppler

Abstract

The Mandatory Supervised Internship (ESO) is an essential part of the training of a Veterinary Doctor, being a mandatory requirement in the Veterinary Medicine course at UFRPE. With a workload of 420 hours, the internship was conducted at the Laboratory of Biotechniques Applied to Reproduction (LBR), between 04/01/2024 and 06/14/2024. The focus was on improving reproductive biotechnology, with emphasis on the in vitro maturation of oocytes and the development of an article based on research carried out with Murrah buffaloes. The study evaluated the blood flow of the ovulatory follicle and corpus luteum using Doppler ultrasound, correlating these data with reproductive efficiency. In the laboratory, activities such as in vitro maturation of bovine oocytes (IVM) and evaluation of meiotic progression using epifluorescence microscopy were carried out. Under the guidance of Professor Dr. André Mariano Batista and supervision of Professor Dr. Cláudio Coutinho Bartolomeu, the internship provided a practical insights into reproductive biotechnologies and their impact on reproductive efficiency in buffaloes.
