大熊猫阴道角化细胞变化的连续监测

对一只旅居美国的青年雌性大熊猫在休情期和发情期的阴道角化细胞变化作了连续监测．结果表明：休情期间低于35％。发情期间平均高于80％．当角化率上升到70％左右时．提示动物发情期开始；上升至90％左右，表明已进入发情高潮期，是配种良机．其结果与尿激素水平和行为表现相比较，三者具有高度一致性，证明阴道角化细胞变化监测对判定大熊猫的发情及配种时机具有良好的指示意义。

Monitoring the Changes of Vaginal Superficial Cells of A Female Giant Panda( Ailuropoda melanoleuca )Bai Yun

Monitoring the changes of vaginal superficial cells in estrus and non estrus period for a 5 5 year-old female giant panda BAI YUN has been done in this paper during January to June of 1997 at San Diego Zoo.The results showed that a changing rate of superficial cells is below 35% during non-estrus period,and is over to averaged 80% in estrus time.It indicates that the peak estrus will probably come to when the rate goes up to 90%.There is an extreme consistency comparing with the uric estrogen and behavior.Therefore,monitoring the change of vaginal superficial cells has an important significance to determine the accurate time of natural mating or artificial insemination for the female giant pandas.
