Abstract

This experiment was designed to clarify the optimum concentration of the seminal plasma in Modena extender for the liquid storage of boar semen at 10°C.<br>The sperm rich fraction was collected from 2 Landrace boars. About half volume of the semen was centrifuged to collect the seminal plasma. Washed spermatozoa were suspended to 1×108 spermatozoa/ml with Modena extender that contained either 0, 1, 5, 15, 25, 50 or 75% seminal plasma. As a control the sperm rich fraction was diluted five fold with Modena extender. Each sperm suspension was stored anaerobicaly in 0.5ml microtube for 28 days at 10°C. The motility and progressive of spermatozoa were analyzed on the 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days of storage by Hamilton-Thorn Motility Analyzer. Each stored semen was diluted to 3×107 spermatozoa/ml with Modena extender and incubated for 60 minutes at 38°C prior to analysis.<br>The motility and progressive of boar spermatozoa stored in Modena extender containing 5 to 25% seminal plasma were maintained better than those stored in Modena extender containing 0, 1, 50 and 75% of seminal plasma.<br>This result indicates that the optimum concentration of the seminal plasma in Modena extender is 5 to 25%. This state can be accomplished by a general method of diluting the sperm rich fraction in the range of 1:3 to 1:10 with an extender.
