Abstract

We examined the viability of boar sperm, after liquid storage at 15°C, in which lipid peroxidation had occurred. Also the viability of sperm treated with ferrus sulfate, Ascorbic acid (VC) and hypotaurine (HT) were investigated. Boar semen collected from 11 boars was centrifuged and diluted with lipid peroxidation induction media which were made of Modena including 0.01, 0.1, 1mM ferrus sulfate and 0.5mM VC. The sperm concentration of the diluted semen was 3.0×108/ml. Then the media were incubated at 37°C in air for 1 hour. Lipid peroxidation of sperm incubated with ferrus sulfate and VC was estimated by malonaldehyde (MDA) concentration. The incubated semen was stored at 15°C for up to 288 hours and the viability of sperm was examined. Additionally, MDA was measured in semen incubated with ferrus sulfate, VC and HT and incubated semen was stored at 15°C for up to 288 hours. Then the viability of the stored semen was also determined. The amount of generated MDA from sperm incubated with 0.1 or 1mM ferrus sulfate was significantly over sperm in which lipid peroxidation was not induced (P<0.001). After liquid storage for 48 hours, the viability of sperm induced lipid peroxidation significantly lower than that of non treated sperm (P<0.05). The viability of sperm treated with ferrus sulfate and HT was not significantly different compared with non treated sperm. However, the level of MDA from sperm incubated with HT was not significantly lower than sperm incubated without HT. These data indicate that lipid peroxidation occurred before liquid storage at 15°C and the viability of boar sperm decreases after storage. Thus the addition of HT into the medium to induce sperm lipid peroxidation would improve the viability of sperm after liquid storage at 15°C.
