 ABSTRACT

The current research work was undertaken to induce estrus synchronization in Kilakarsal ewes, using chitosan nanoconjugated GnRH and to assess its efficacy and economical feasibility under semi intensive farming conditions The total GnRH (16.05 μg/mL) and free GnRH (2.80 μg/mL) contents as obtained by their respective protein values and entrapment efficacy was calculated and found to be 82.55 %. The nanoparticles prepared in this study showed the highest EE value of 82.55%. As EE values represent the conjugation abilities of GnRH with chitosan, it may be inferred that the Chitosan nanoconjugated GnRH may be the most suitable and cost effective treatment for ES in ewes.
