Equine semen was analysed for its survival after storage under different conditions. Total 12 ejaculates from 2 Thoroughbred were analysed for general characterisitcs and preservation at low temperature. The sperm fraction, concentration, nd the rate of motile spermatozoa were 57.91ml per ejaculate, 2.18$\times$108/ml and 74.1%, respectively. The survival rate of spermatozoa was highest when diluted semen with E-Z Mixin was stored at 7~8$^{\circ}C$. The optimum survival rate(>54%) can be obtained upto 24h at 7~8$^{\circ}C$. However only 10% spermatozoa survived after 5h storage at 7~8$^{\circ}C$ without use of E-Z Mixin. Other ranges of temperature(15$^{\circ}C$ and room temperature) gave less survival rates(<25%). These results indicate that the extender could be used as a basic solution for the preservation of equine spermatozoa at low temperature. It also provides a practical method for short-term storage of collected equine semen in a simple manner.

This present study was carried out to examine the effect of maturation media and liquid boar semen on in vitro maturation and feritilization of pig oocytes. The results obtained were as follows : When the oocytes were cultured for 36∼42 hours in mTCM-199, Waymouth MB 725/1 and mTLP-PVA medium, the maturation rates were 90%, 92% and 88%, respectively. The sperm penetration rates of pig oocyte matured in vitro were 87%(mTCM-199), 90%(Waymouth MB 725/1) and 86%(mTLP-PVA), respectively. The rates of nuclear maturation and fertilization of pig oocytes among three different media did not differ. However, the rate of male pronucleus formation of pig oocytes was significantly higher in pig oocytes matured in Waymouth MB 725/1(91%) than oocytes matured in mTCM-199(66%) and mTLP-PVA(62%) medium (P<0.05). When the collected sperm-rich fraction without diluent was used fro in vitro fertilization in mTCM-199 fertilization medium, the fertilization rate was 87.9%. However, when the liquid boar semen diluted with B tschwiler diluent was used at day 3 and 5 after dilution, the fertilization rate was 40.8% and 0.0%, respectively.

For evaluating the boar semen quality, sperm motility is an important parameter because the movement of sperm indicates active metabolism, membrane integrity and fertilizing capacity. Phospholipase C zeta (PLCz) is important enzyme in spermatogenesis, but the effect has not been confirmed in pigs yet. Therefore, this study was aimed to analyze their association with sperm motility and kinematic characteristics. DNA samples from 124 Duroc pigs with records of sperm motility and kinematic characteristics [total motile spermatozoa (MOT), curvilinear velocity (VCL), straight-line velocity (VSL), the ratio between VSL and VCL (LIN), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH)] were subjected. A SNP in non-coding region of PLCz g.158 A > C was associated with MOT (p < 0.05), VCL (p < 0.01), LIN (p < 0.01) and ALH (p < 0.05) in Duroc population. Therefore, we suggest that the intron region of the porcine PLCz gene may be used as a molecular marker for Duroc boar semen quality, although its functional effect was not defined yet. Whether the association is due to the candidate gene or not require further verification. Thus, it will be of interest to continue association studies in the regions surrounding those genes.

멸종위험성이 높은 재래돼지를 유전자원으로서 안전하게 보존하고 유전적 다양성을 유지하기 위해 체내수정란의 동결보존 방법을 수행하였다. 재래돼지의 과배란유기는 altrenogest를 1일 20mg씩 18일 경구투여하고 PMSG 500~l,000IU 근육주사후 80시간에 hCG 500~750IU를 근육주사하였다. 발정이 관찰된 개체는 발정개시후 12시간과 24시간에 자연교배 또는 액상정액을 이용하여 2회씩 수정시켰다. 최종 수정후 5일째에 외과적으로 개복수술하여 FBS가 5% 첨가된 D-PBS 관류액으로 자궁으로부터 수정란을 회수하여 상실기, 배반포기, 확장배반포기의 수정란으로 구분하였다. 회수된 수정란은 FBS가 20% 첨가된 D-PBS의 0.4, 0.8, 1.4M glycerol 항동해제에 각 단계별로 10분씩 평형시킨후 수정란동결기(CL863, Australia)를 이용하여 18$^{\circ}C$부터 -7$^{\circ}C$까지 2$^{\circ}C$/min의 냉각속도와 -7$^{\circ}C$부터 -35$^{\circ}C$까지 0.5$^{\circ}C$/min의 동결속도(실험1), 1$^{\circ}C$/min의 냉각속도와 0.3$^{\circ}C$/min의 동결속도(실험 2)로 동결시켰다. 또한 FBS가 20% 첨가된 D-PBS의 ethylene glyco1(EG) 1.8M의 항동제에 15분간 평형시킨후 실험 1과 동일한 방법으로 동결시켰다(실험 3). 동결수정란의 융해는 37$^{\circ}C$의 항온수조에서 30초간 실시하였다. 항동해제로 glycerol을 이용한 수정란은 융해후 3가지 농도로 0.3M sucrose, 0.8M glycerol, 0.4M glycerol을 첨가한 D-PBS에 각각 10분씩 단계적으로 정치시킨 다음, 10% FBS 첨가 mNCSU-23으로 3회 세척했다. 항동해제로 EG를 이용한 수정란은 융해후 즉시 D-PBS에 각각 10분간 정치시킨 다음, 10% FBS 첨가 mNCSU-23으로 3회 세척했다. 항동해제가 제거된 수정란은 FBS가 10% 첨가된 mNCSU-23 배양액에서 39$^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$ 배양기에 48시간 배양하면서 생존여부를 판단하였다. 실험 2에서 확장배반포배 수정란이 25.3%의 생존율을 나타내었으며, 실험 1과 실험 3에서는 수정란의 형태와 관계없이 생존성을 확인할 수 없었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 glycerol 완만동결에서는 확장배반포기 수정란 이상이 보존가능한 것으로 추정되나 더 추가적인 연구가 요구된다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the motility and kinematics of boar sperm that while stored at 4C. The samples of fresh boar semen were place into an extender, Androhep, and stored at $4^{\circ}C$. In three of these samples, cryoprotectants were added. The sperm's motilities and kinematics were evaluated by using microscope (${\times}400$) and the viability status was evaluated by using with eosin staining method. The 5 sample groups are; Goup A:Androhep (extender), stored at $17^{\circ}C$. Group B:Androhep (extender), stored at $4^{\circ}C$. Group C:Androhep (extender), + 3% glycerol (cryoprotectant), stored at $4^{\circ}C$. Group D:Androhep (extender), + 3% DMSO (cryoprotectant), stored at $4^{\circ}C$. Group E:Androhep (extender), + 3% ethylene glycol (cryoprotectant), stored at $4^{\circ}C$. In group A, the sperm's motility was reduced. On day one the sperm's motility was ($85.7{\pm}2.3$) and day 5 the motility was ($43.9{\pm}3.3$). In group B, C and D the sperm's motility were reduced to 0 on day 5. In group E the sperm's percentage of motility decreased. On day one the sperm's motility was ($42.0{\pm}0.5$) and day 5 the motility was ($2.3{\pm}0.3$). When comparing cryoprotectant in samples of boar sperm there is a slight improvement in the results when the use of Androhep Lite (extender), + 3% ethylene glycol (cryoprotectant), stored at $4^{\circ}C$ are used. Based on these results, ethylene glycol can protect sperm from heat shock at $4^{\circ}C$, but not satisfactory level. However, it showed the possibilities of liquid semen preservation at $4^{\circ}C$ by using cryoprotectant.

본 연구는 돼지 난포란을 이용하여 생산된 1-세포기의 체외수정란을 NCSU-23, PZM-3 및 PZM-4의 세 가지 배양액과 서로 다른 산소농도를 부여하여 돼지 체외수정란의 적합한 체외배양조건을 구명하고자 실시하였다. 돼지 난포란의 체외성숙은 BSA가 미첨가 된 NCSU-23 배앙액에 10% pFF, 0.9 mM crysteine, 25 $\mu/ml \beta$-mercaptoethanol 및 10 ng/$\mu/ml$ epidermal growth factor와 호르몬(10 IU/$ml$ PMSG, hCG)을 첨가하여 20∼22시간과 추가로 호르몬을 제거한 배양액에 20∼22시간을 배양하여 성숙을 유기하였고, 5∼6시간 동안 돼지 액상정액과 공배양함으로써 체외수정을 유기하였다. 체외수정 5∼6시간후 각각 5% 및 20%의 산소조건하의 NCSU-23, PZM-3 및 PZM4 배양액에서 배발달을 유기하였다. 돼지체외수정란을 체외배양하였을 때, 배발달 48시간에 처리구간 난할율에는 차이가 없었으나, 배양 7일째 배반포형성률은 5% 산소조건의 PZM-3 배양액에서 가장 높게 나타났다(19.9 $\pm$ 2.4 vs. 11.1$\pm$2.0 to 16.0$\pm$2.5%, P<0.05). 그리고, 총세포수에 있어서 5%의 산소조건 하에서 배양하는 것이 20% 산소조건보다 유의적(P<0.05)으로 높았으나, 배양액간 차이는 인정되지 않았다. 따라서, 체외생산된 돼지초기수정란의 체외배발달은 5% 산소조건하의 PZM-3 배양액에서 배양하는 것이 좋은 것으로 나타났다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of storage time on fresh boar semen in Androhep and Beltsville Thawing Solution (BTS). Boar semen samples extended in each extender were stored at $17^{\circ}C$ up to 4 days. Sperm motility kinematics was evaluated by computer assisted sperm analyzer (CASA) and capacitation status by chlortetracycline (CTC)/Hoechst 33258 staining. Sperm motility (%) was not decreased during storage in BTS and Androhep. No significant difference between extenders was observed. Only significant differences in kinematic parameters on linearity during storage were found. The percentage of dead sperm significantly decreased during storage (p<0.05). Also the percentage of noncapacitated, capacitated, and acrosome-reacted sperm significantly modified during storage (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between extenders except proportion of capacitated sperm. This finding supported that modification in these parameters was not significantly different between extenders during this short-term storage. Our finding strongly indicated that both Androhep and BIS maintained favorable conditions for motility, motility kinematics, and capacitation status during short-term storage. Despite modifications in some parameters were apparent during sperm storage in extenders, these may not affect the fertilizing capacity of boar semen.

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of semen extenders on the motility, viability and fertility in vitro of spermatozoa during storage of fresh boar semen diluted in different commercial extenders used for pig artificial insemination (AI). In this experiment, semen were diluted in Androhep plus, Beltsville Thawing Solution (BTS), Modena, Seminark and Vitasem LD. Five ejaculates were collected from three Duroc boars and sub-samples were diluted ($30{\times}10^6$ spermatozoa/ml) in different extenders. Semen was stored at $170^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. Sperm motility and viability was assessed using Computer-Assisted Semen Analysis (CASA) and flow-cytometry on 1, 3, 5 and 10 day post collection The motility of spermatozoa stored in different extenders was gradually decreased by increasing the duration of storage of semen. However, there was not significant1y different in the sperm motility and viability among other extenders. On the other hand, the in vitro-matured oocytes were fertilized and cultured in vitro to assess the fertility of boar spermatozoa stored for 3 and 10 days in different extenders. The percentage of morula and blastocyst were taken as indicators of fertility in vitro of spermatozoa. Therefore, there were no differences in the rate of embryos developed to the molular and blastocyst stage. There were no differences in the motility and fertility in vitro among 5 kinds of commercial boar semen extenders.
