Abstract:
Artificial insemination (AI) is a widely used part of the modern agricultural industry, with the number of animals inseminated globally being measured in the millions per anum. Crucial to the success of AI is that the sperm sample used is of a high Quality. Two factors which determine the quality of the sample are the number of sperm present and their motility. There are numerous methods used to analyse the quality of a sperm sample, but these are generally laboratory based, expensive and in need of a skilled operator to perform the analysis. It would, therefore be useful to have a simple and

Abstract:
Handling of semen is a very important tool for a successful artificial insemination in both pig and horse farming. One of the main problems during liquid and frozen semen storage is the loss of fertilizing potential mainly due to a sudden reduction of temperature, an excessive production of reactive oxygen species and alterations in the antioxidant defense systems. Supplementation of sperm preparation with different antioxidants gave interesting and promising results and, during recent years, use of plant antioxidants has been gaining the attention of several research groups.

Abstract:
Centrifugation of stallion semen is an integral part of the cryopreservation procedure, primarily allowing for the concentration of sperm and removal of seminal plasma. In addition, centrifugation is required for maximizing spermatozoal quality in semen from some stallions subjected to cooled transport, because of the detrimental effects of long-term exposure to high levels of seminal plasma. The centrifugation process, however, has potential deleterious effects, including reduction in sperm quality as well as loss of sperm numbers.

The cause of the lower pregnancy rates obtained with frozen thawed semen with respect to natural mating is the short life span of thawed canine spermatozoa, due to subtle membrane damages affecting sperm cells during freezing and thawing

Abstract:
Após a inseminação artificial, as fêmeas apresentam reação inflamatória transitória e fisiológica, que pode resultar em alterações na vascularização uterina. A ultrassonografia Doppler colorido é uma técnica não invasiva, que vem sendo utilizada para estudar a hemodinâmica do trato reprodutivo de bovinos. Os objetivos deste trabalho foram verificar a resposta inflamatória uterina por ultrassonografia Doppler colorido e a taxa de fertilidade em bovinos após inseminação artificial (IA) com sêmen avaliado por sondas fluorescentes. Para isso foram delineados dois experimentos. O experimento 1 foi

Abstract:
La componente primaria della filiera agricola è il seme, visto non solo come una fonte per perpetrare il genotipo, ma anche come componente necessaria per la produzione di cibo. Per questo la qualità del seme gioca un ruolo essenziale in agricoltura: germinabilità, vigore e purezza devono essere sempre garantiti. La necessità di garantire maggiore sostenibilità ai sistemi agricoli e rispetto dell’ambiente sta aprendo la strada all’uso di prodotti a base di microorganismi limitando l’uso di fitofarmaci dannosi per l’uomo e l’ambiente. Il lavoro di tesi è stato impostato sul miglioramento della

Abstract:
Insomnia is common in children, and is associated with decreased school performance and increased psychopathology. Although adult insomnia is linked to worsened health-related quality of life (HRQOL), there is insufficient data evaluating insomnia and HRQOL in children. We examined the HRQOL and health associations of insomnia in a longitudinal cohort of 194 children (96 girls, age at study start 8.7 +/- 1.6 years, age at data analysis 15.0 +/- 1.8 years) over 7 years. International Classification of Sleep Disorders, second edition (ICSD2) derived insomnia was seen intermittently in 27% of chi

HI may increase sows’ conception rates by ‘risk diversification’, especially when boar’s fertility is not certain. Because of this , HI has becomed popular in Taiwan. However, it is still not clear that ejaculate mixing would affect quality of the extended semen during storage.

However the number of semen dosages of collected and diluted the boar semen is usually greater than the number of mated sows. It wastes the excellent boar semen. If we could cryopreserve the liquid boar semen, we would increase the application of the excellent boars. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of Trolox in diluent boar semen for 2 and 3 days storage on the sperm quality and

Different factors are involved in the alteration of sperm during the cryopreservation: the cryoprotectant used and chilling, freezing and thawed processes employed. Therefore, a large number of extenders have been studied in order to preserve the canine semen quality during the cryopreservation.
