Experimental setup. The study was performed with two groups of Ellegaard Göttingen Minipigs; one group including ten prepubertal minipigs that were sampled one time and the other group including ten sexually mature non-pregnant minipigs that were hormonally synchronized and sampled six times during an estrous cycle. The first day of estrus after synchronization was designated day 0 and the following samples were taken at days 5, 9, 13, 17 and 21 in the estrous cycle.
