Proteomic profiling of porcine seminal extracellular vesicles reveals potential in vivo fertility biomarkers

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 555-570, February 2026.
Abstract Background Predicting male fertility in farm animals remains a challenge. Seminal plasma (SP) contains a high amount of heterogeneous seminal extracellular vesicles (sEVs), believed involved in reproductive processes and maybe key to understanding male fertility.

Boar management and semen handling factors affect the quality of boar extended semen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Artificial insemination (AI) is the preferred method for reproduction in the majority of the intensive pig production systems Worldwide. To this end, fresh extended ready-to-use semen doses are either purchased from AI-centres or produced by boars kept ...

Rapid risk assessment on acute reference dose (ARfD) of cereulide in infants and information on acute consumption of infant formulae

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract EFSA has received a request for a rapid risk assessment for cereulide from the European Commission. Cereulide is a heat‐stable emetic toxin produced by Bacillus cereus, recently detected in infant formulae from multiple manufacturers. This led to precautionary recalls across several countries.

Effects of Turine and Vitamin E on Sperm Viability, Membrane Integrity and Mitochondrial Activity damaged by Bromopropane in Fresh Boar Semen

open access: yesJournal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2016
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of taurine and vitamin E on sperm characteristics damaged by bromopropane (BP) in pig. We evaluated toxicity of BP on viability, membrane integrity and mitochondrial activity of spermatozoa. 1-BP (0, 2.

Reproductive management in pigs: emphasis on the different roles of the boar and on optimal insemination management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
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.

Capacitation‐Induced Zinc Ion Flux and Sperm Plasma Membrane Remodeling Predict Porcine In Vitro Fertilization Cleavage Success

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 1, January 2026.
Capacitation‐associated zinc redistribution and membrane remodeling predict IVF cleavage success. Distinct boar ejaculates were subjected to in‐vitro capacitation (IVC) and evaluated using image‐based flow cytometry and computer‐assisted semen analysis (CASA).

Scanning Electron Microscopy of the Rainbow Trout (Salmo gairdneri Richardson) Spermatozoon [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
The scanning electron microscope was used to determine the morphology of the rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri Richardson) spermatozoon. The spermatozoon is approximately 32 μm long and consists of a head, mitochondrial collar, and flagellum.

Porcine vas deferens luminal pH is acutely increased by systemic xylazine administration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Data are accumulating to demonstrate that pH regulation in the male reproductive tract has a vital role in modulating sperm cell fertilizing capacity and, therefore, male fertility.

Factors Affecting the Efficient Production of Boar Sperm [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction in Domestic Animals, 2015
ContentsEfficient sperm production in boars has developmental and functional components. Factors affecting the developmental phase influence Sertoli cell mitosis, appear to be mostly stimulatory and have permanent effects on production of sperm. Birthweight appears to hold promise as a prospective screening tool as it appears to have a strong positive ...

Experimental Evidence That Prenatal and Postnatal Developmental Stress Affects the Adult Seminal Fluid Proteome in a Precocial Bird

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 2, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Seminal fluid proteins are important modulators of male fertility and reproductive success, yet little is known about how their abundance responds to early‐life developmental stress. Japanese quail Coturnix japonica) males produce a unique seminal foam that enhances fertilisation success.
