Research Interest

The adverse effect of environmental pollutants (pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls) on reproductive processes in cow. It was found that the chloroorganic xenobiotics affect the force of myometrial contractions in cattle. The impairment of synthesis and secretion of oxytocin (OT) in ovary and prostaglandin (PG) F2α in uterus is a part of the mechanism of the xenobiotics action.
