The light-dark sequence is a major modulator in polyestrous mammals like mice. Endogenous LH surges lead to an ovulation time about 3 h after the mid-point of the dark period (Whitten and Champlin, 1978). Hence, it is common to employ a system in which the mouse room is maintained with 12 to 14 hours of light and 10 to 12 hours of dark with lights on at 5:00 to 7:00 hours and lights off at 19:00 hours. Injec- tions of PMSG are often scheduled between 16:00 to 20:00 hours, and HCG is admin-.
