Summary.

Norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin concentrations in the hypothalamus and stalk-median eminence were estimated in nine Hereford heifers at the onset of oestrus or 48 hr later. Significant differences in levels of monoamines at these stages of the oestrous cycle were not evident. Norepinephrine levels were similar in the hypothalamus and the stalk-median eminence, but dopamine and serotonin concentrations were significantly higher in the stalk-median eminence.

Reproduction is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.

The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
