Özet
İngilizce (OpenAlex)
The presented study aimed to investigate the presence of AMH in bitch urine and to determine whether there is a correlation between blood serum and urine AMH levels. Forty-two healthy mixed breed bitches brought to XXX University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Hospital, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology with a request for ovariohysterectomy were included in the study. Blood samples were taken from the Vena cephalica antebrachii, and urine samples were collected using a urinary catheter of all bitches. After the blood and urine samples were centrifuged, AMH levels were determined using the ELISA method. The average AMH concentration was determined to be 4.56±0.53 ng.ml-1 in urine and 7.75±1.19 ng.ml-1 in blood serum. No significant correlation was found between blood and urine AMH levels. As a result, this study measured urine AMH levels in bitches for the first time and presented it quantitatively. It was concluded that urine AMH levels were not related to blood serum AMH levels and that estimating ovarian reserve in bitches based on urine AMH levels could be misleading.
