Liquid Storage of Miniature Boar Semen.
The effects of liquid storage at 15 degrees C on the fertilizing ability of miniature pig semen were investigated. Characterization of ejaculated semen from 3 miniature boars was carried out. Semen volume and pH were similar among these boars. In one of the boars, sperm motility was slightly low, and sperm concentration and total number of sperm were ...

Reproductive management in pigs: emphasis on the different roles of the boar and on optimal insemination management [PDF]
Boars have different roles in the reproductive management in pigs. Boar contact can stimulate follicle development and thereby induce oestrus, both in gilts and sows.

Quantification of the emetic toxin cereulide in food products by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry using synthetic cereulide as a standard [PDF]
Bacillus cereus produces the emetic toxin cereulide, a cyclic dodecadepsipeptide that can act as a K+ ionophore, dissipating the transmembrane potential in mitochondria of eukaryotic cells.

Boar semen proteomics and sperm preservation
Recently numerous proteomic approaches have been undertaken to identify sperm and seminal plasma (SP) proteins that can be used as potential biomarkers for sperm function, including fertilization ability. This review aims firstly to briefly introduce the proteomic technologies and workflows that can be successfully applied for sperm and SP proteomic ...

The effect of combined cryoprotectants on the cryotolerance of boar sperm [PDF]
Objective The frozen semen has the significant advantages of long-term storage and long-range transportation. However, due to the low cryotolerance of boar sperm, the global utilization of frozen boar semen in artificial insemination was less than 1 ...
