Multiple ovulation and embryo transfer is one of the reproductivetechnologies which is important to increase animal production. In this case report, four cows were selected as donors while elevencows were selected as recipients. Both donors and recipients had undergone the same procedures and steps for multiple ovulation and embryo transfer (MOET), such as cow preparation, synchronisation and where only donor cows follow the superovulation protocol. Cows were artificially inseminated and the embryos were flushed and graded. Out of four selected cows for donor, one of them was pregnant and only two cows actuallyproduced the embryos. The recovery rate for the embryo collection was 70.1%, and from 13 embryos (including unfertilised ova), 84.6% of the embryos was classified as good quality and suitable for embryo transfer. The overall results showed that out of eight recipients, five cows were detected pregnant, a 62.5% pregnancy rate. The aim of this report is to describe the procedures aswell as the factors that affect the successful of the MOET programme.

The development and availability of follicles is an indicator to predict which of the follicle sizes are suitable to recover the oocytes assisted by means of ultrasonography of transvaginal oocyte retrieval (OPU). Thus, the study was done in order to characterize the follicular recruitment and distribution in response to the repeated removal of follicles, and thus to determine the availability of follicles and immature oocytes harvested repeatedlyfor two consecutive days of OPU in beef cows. Results indicated that 24-h OPU showed significantly greater numbers of medium and large follicles than small categories (P<0.05). However the 48-hr of OPU does not showed any differences of follicles categories (P>0.05). The mean total number of follicles and immature oocytes recovered were higher (P<0.05) in 24-hr OPU (13.76±1.2 and 7.38 ± 1.7) compared to 48-hr OPU (9.08 ± 1.5 and 3.54 ± 1.00) with the oocyte retrieval rate of 51.22% and 38.17%, respectively. The morphological classification indicated the 24-hr oocyte retrieval produced 62% of suitable immature oocytes that can be used for in vitro embryo production. In conclusion, the repeated removal of two consecutive days of OPU has averted the development of dominant follicle, and thus, gave an atmosphere to the subordinate follicles to continue growth relatively to an equal proportion of small, medium and large categories of follicles. Due to the reduction of follicle and recovery rate at 48-hr it is suggested that OPU be carried out later than 48 hour so that the follicle has more time to increase the diameter size.
