Cryopreservation of boar semen [PDF]
Generally, spermatozoa from most boars survive poorly the customary process of cryopreservation. Post-thaw (PT) survivors often show unstable membranes, short life-span, and low fertilising capacity when artificial insemination(AI) is used. This thesis aimed at improving this situation by (i) freezing high sperm numbers in novel packages (MiniFlatPacks™
