Abstract in Portuguese
Este trabalho teve por objetivo descrever os perfis hormonais do ciclo ovariano de cinco exemplares adultos de C. penicillata, mantidas no Parque Municipal Quinzinho de Barros em Sorocaba, SP. As amostras de fezes foram colhidas diariamente, sempre pela manhã, durante três meses e mantidas congeladas até o processamento laboratorial. Após a extração com solventes orgânicos, as mensurações foram efetuadas com o uso da técnica de radioimunoensaio (RIE). Para as mensurações dos metabólitos hormonais foram utilizados conjuntos comerciais validados para o uso em matriz fecal de C.penicilatta. Os resultados mostraram que duas fêmeas estavam ciclando e três estavam gestantes. Para as fêmeas que apresentaram ciclicidade ovariana o ciclo teve duração média de 23.5 ±9, 9 dias, sendo que as durações das fases lúteas e foliculares foram de 13,25 dias ± 9,46 dias e de 10,25 ±7,2 dias, respectivamente. Entre as outras três fêmeas, duas tiveram suas gestações confirmadas, parindo filhotes e uma teve suspeita de ter sofrido abortamento .Para as que tiveram suas gestações confirmadas, a média das concentrações dos metabólitos fecais de progesterona foi de 4527,19 ± 3667,8 ng/g para o terço medio enquanto a média do terço final foi de 2974±2471,9 ng/g. As médias obtidas para as concentrações de metabólitos de estrógenos nos terços medio e final foram respectivamente de 1401,41± 1034,4 ng/g e 1546,67± 1227,2 ng/g. Para a fêmea que teve suspeita de abortamento foram confeccionados gráficos dos valôres obtidos das concentrações de ambos os metabólitos hormonais para o período anterior e posterior a data presumida do evento e comparadas as suas médias . A média da concentração dos metabólitos fecais de progesterona antes do suposto abortamento foi de 1466,22± 784,36 ng/g e para o período posterior ao suposto evento foi de 813 ± 614,66 ng/g Para as médias das concentrações de metabólitos fecais de estrógenos, os resultados obtidos foram de 745,65± 747,39 ng/g antes e 212,42 ±331,84 ng/g depois do suposto evento. As analises das concentrações de metabóltios fecais dos hormonios esteroides, mostrou-se uma ferramenta efficiente e adequada para estudos sobre a ciclicidade ovariana e gestação do C. penicillata.

Abstract in English
This study had as objective to describe the hormonal profiles of the ovarian cycle of five adult females of C.penicillata, from the Parque Municipal Quinzinho de Barros in Sorocaba, SP. The fecal samples were collected on a daily basis, always in the morning, during three months and then frozen until their processing. After extraction with organic solvents, the measurements were conducted with radioimmunoassay (RIA) .For the measurements of the hormonal metabolites comercial kits were used and validated for C.penicillata. The results showed two females with ovarian cyclicity and three females that were pregnant. For the females that presented ovarian cyclicity the duration of the ovarian cycle had an average of 23.5 ± 9.9 days , where the duration of the luteal and follicular phases were of 13.25 ±9.46 days and 10.25±7.2 days, respectively. Of the other three females, two had their pregnancys confirmed by the birth of their young and one was suspected to have suffered abortion. For the females that had their pregnancys confirmed , the mean of the fecal progesterone metabolites concentration was of 4527.19 ± 3667.8 ng/g for the second trimester, as where for the third trimester it was of 2974 ±2471.9 ng/g. The means for the estrogen fecal metabolites concentrations for the second and third trimester were of 1401.41 ± 1034.4 ng/g and 1546.67 ± 1227.2 ng/g. For the female that was suspected to have had an abortion graphs were used with values obtained from both fecal metabolites concentrations from before and after the presumed date of the event and the means were compared. The mean of progesterone fecal metabolites concentrations before the abortion was of 1466.22 ± 784.36 ng/g and for the period after the abortion it was of 813 ± 614.66 ng/g. For the estrogen fecal metabolites concentration mean, the results obtained were of 745.65 ± 747.39 ng/g for the before period and 212.42 ±331.84 for the after period. The analysis of the fecal metabolites steroids hormone concentration, showed to be an efficient tool for the studies of the ovarian cycle and gestation period in the C.penicillata.
