Abstract
This experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of saccharide in the lactose-egg yolk(LEY) extender for freezing of boar semen on the viability, normal acrosome, fertilizable of in vitro or in vivo oocyte after thawed. Normal acrosome post-thawed spermatozoa was higher when increasing of glucose concentration in LEY extender with 3 or $4\%$ glycerol, but viability was not significant. Viability of the post-thawed spermatozoa was higher when fructose or fructose and glucose were added to LEY extender with $3\%$ glycerol than glucose and sucrose or fructose, glucose and sucrose(P<0.05). Rate of normal acrosome of post thawed spermatozoa was higher when both fructose and glucose$(81.4{\pm}2.3\%)$ were added to the LEY extender than saccharide not added$(41.6\pm0.6\%)$ to it(P<0.001). The percentage of fertilization, cleavage and development to blastocyst of oocytes fertilized with post-thawed spermatozoa from freezing by LEY extender were $70.8\~80.7\%$, $44.6\~45.7$ and $13.6\~16.0\%$, respectively. Conception rate by artificial insemination with frozen boa. semen was higher$(83.1{\pm}0.3\%)$ than commercial frozen semen from SGI company$(50.0{\pm}0.1\%,\;P<0.05)$, but litter size were no significant differences between frozen by LEY extender$(9.4{\pm}1.7\~10.4{\pm}0.7head/sow)$ and SGI semen$(8.0{\pm}1.1 head/sow)$.
