title: [Relationship between metabolic status and results of embryo collection in high-producing cows].
abstract: Blood samples were taken from 58 high-performance cows earmarked as donors for embryo transfer, one day before artificial insemination and following superovulation. An evaluation of 16 major indices showed the yield of transferable embryos to be clearly reduced by hypocholesterolemia, hyperproteinemia, and even more by hypophosphatemia. More than one deviating metabolic findings were obtained only from few animals which had the desired high number of embryos, that is above seven.
