Effect of Composition of Tris-based Diluent on Survival of Boar Spermatozoa following Deep Freezing

Abstract

Six factorial experiments were conducted to examine the effects of concentrations of 2-amino-2-hydroxymethylpropane-l,3-diol (tris), sugars, erythritol, catalase, ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid (EDTA), glycerol and egg yolk in the freezing diluent on the survival of boar spermatozoa after freeze-thawing.
