Influence of soiling on boar taint in boars
Meat Science, 2011It has been suggested that skatole, one of the main compounds responsible for boar taint, can be lowered by keeping pigs clean, as skatole can be absorbed through skin and/or lungs (Hansen, Larsen, Jensen, HansenMoller & Bartongade, 1994). With this experiment, we further investigated this hypothesis by comparing extremely clean with extremely dirty ...

A 2-year-old Duroc boar was examined because of weakness, ataxia, and blindness. During hospitalization, fever spikes of about 41.6 C (107 F) were recorded every 24 hours. The tentative diagnosis was a space occupying mass in the diencephalon. The boar's condition deteriorated rapidly, so the boar was euthanatized and necropsied.

SummaryA 14‐month‐old Yorkshire boar was examined. In the abdomen, two big tumour masses were found in the intestines. In addition, pale nodules occurred in the liver, kidneys, in and upon the spleen, in the wall of the heart and in the testicles. By immunohistochemistry tumour cells were positive for CD3, but negative for B‐lymphocyte antigen and CD79.

Many boar problems result from an insufficient number of boars in relation to the number of sows in the herd, sexually immature boars, inadequately preconditioned or improperly managed boars. The following factors which determine optimum boar efficiency are discussed: (a) sexual development and mating behaviour, (b) selection, (c) preconditioning, (d ...

Attacks on humans by wild boar (Sus scrofa) are occasionally reported in rural areas of Turkey. While fatalities are rare, individuals may sustain significant soft tissue trauma. Lower extremity lacerations of up to 10 cm in length and 4 cm deep were seen in the 3 cases reviewed. Injuries to the upper abdomen and chest occurred in one case.

Almost anywhere one went in the vast territories of the British Empire, one was likely to find boar. Whether they were introduced as domestic pigs that went feral, or whether they were an indigenous population of Sus scrofa, boar were everywhere, and were both a boon and a plague.

Microvasculature of the epididymis in the boar
Cell and Tissue Research, 1990Microvasculature of the epididymis was investigated by scanning electron microscopy of vascular corrosion casts. The basic structure of blood supply to the boar epididymis consists of two superimposed vascular networks. Capillaries surrounding the epididymal duct constitute the inner level.

Boar spermatozoa in the oviduct
Theriogenology, 2005In the pig, a functional tubal sperm reservoir (SR) is established before ovulation to ensure availability of suitable numbers of viable spermatozoa for fertilization. The boar's large ejaculate is split: most spermatozoa are delivered in a sperm-rich fraction (SRF) followed by a post-SRF fraction containing increasing amounts of the spermadhesin PSP-I/

Abstract The clinical and histological features of scrotal haemangiomas in mature boars in Hong Kong and Fiji are described. Nomenclature of the lesions is discussed. Age, altered haemodynamic forces in the capillary bed of the dermis and genetic predisposition are suggested as factors involved in the development of these vascular overgrowths.
