Topical application of Calotropis gigantea in excision wound model increased the percentage of wound contraction. Scar area and epithelization time were decreased. In incision wound and dead space wound breaking strength of wounds and hydroxyproline was increased. [Deshmukh PT, Fernandes J, Atul A, Toppo E. Wound healing activity of Calotropis gigantea root bark in rats. J Ethnopharmacol. 2009; 125(1):178-181. doi:10.1016/j.jep.2009.06.007] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19539020/ |

Specific treatments for conditions like delayed ovulation, endometritis may be carried out. Since most of the cases do not reveal any specific condition the following guidelines may be adopted.Global context (how widespread the problem is): The infertility of milk cow is a world problem with high incidence rate. Reportedly, in the world dairy industry, the proportion of the infertile milk cow was about 15% in the total mature cows (Donald L B, 1978, P.309), and some others thought this number achieved about 30% according to the statistics (Bulman D C, 1980, P.177-188).
• In US, there are 12%~19% cows which are eliminated through selection because of sterility and breeding diseases every year, and this number achieves above 40% in all unqualified cows (Jiang, 1990, P.38-41).
• In China, the infertile rate of mature cows achieves above 25%, and the rate in some cattle farms with imperfect management and bad technical conditions even achieves above 40% (Jiang, 1990, P.38-41). |
