In small ruminants, the needs for development of alternative and efficient non-surgical techniques for embryo transfer have been emphasized. Non-surgical embryo recovery is well consolidated in Brazil in cattle and goats, while in sheep it remains a challenge. The aim of this study was to check the efficiency of different ways of estradiol benzoate administration on cervix dilation and embryo recovery in synchronized Santa Inês ewes. Considering that Santa Inês sheep have up to 1.3 lambs we can conclude that it is possible to perform efficient non-surgical embryo recovery in non-superovulated synchronized Santa Inês ewes, regardless the way of estradiol administration. aBenzoates aBrazil aEmbryo transfer aReproduction aSheep aEstradiol aHormônio aOvelha aOvino aReprodução animal aTransferência de embrião aEmbryo recovery aEwe aRaça Santa Inês1 aZAMBRINI, F.
