Abstract:

Present study deals with the effect of Ergometrine maleate on prolactin (PRL) of Uromastix pituitaries. Administration of 0.02, 0.04 and 0.06mg/day/animal Ergometrine maleate for 3 days to individuals of 3 respective groups resulted in decreased pigeon crop-sac diametric response. Intramuscularly treated pituitaries showed more PRL inhibition than the pituitaries of animals treated intravenously.
