Isolation and identification of prostaglandins of the E and F series in testes and semen of lowland-black-white breed of bulls.
The prostaglandins of E and F series were obtained from testes and semen of sexually mature bulls of lowland-black-white breed. From 1 g of fresh testes tissue we obtained 7.01 X 10(-9) M prostaglandin of the F series (PGF) and 20.65 X 10(-9) M prostaglandin of the E series (PGE): from 11 of semen 3.28 X 10(-6) M of PGF and 10.58 X 10(-6) M of PGE were obtained as well. The prostaglandins thus obtained displayed biological activity in experiments on the isolated small intestine of the rabbit.
