Background/Objectives: The use of antibiotics in livestock contributes to antimicrobial resistance, highlighting the need for alternative solutions. Among these, chelating agents, like ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and Chitosan, have shown potential reducing bacterial contamination seminal doses used artificial insemination (AI), while preserving sperm quality. objective this study was evaluate EDTA Chitosan as alternatives liquid storage rabbit AI doses. Methods: (20 mM) (0.05%)...

Contents This study was conducted to evaluate changes in ram seminal plasma composition from ejaculates obtained using artificial vagina (AV) and electroejaculation (EE). To address this question, we assessed the effect of semen collection method on volume, sperm concentration, sodium potassium sodium/potassium ratio, total protein content profile dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) 2‐D electrophoresis. The main findings were: (i) similar volume obtained, while...

In order to explore a less stressful and hormone-independent insemination method in rabbits, we aimed evaluate the influence of new cannula on reproductive performance. Two assays were conducted. first, 136 nulliparous multiparous females treated with 12.5 IU eCG improve their receptivity divided into four stimulation groups (aGnRH-Control, Extender, Seminal Sperm) test ovulation frequency rate. The control group received 1 µg buserelin acetate intramuscularly induce ovulation. other used 3D...

Although numerous studies have demonstrated that cryopreservation alters gene expression, less is known about those embryos implanted successfully and continued in gestation. To raise the question of neutrality this technique, we examine effects vitrification through gestation rabbit before after implantation. We monitored distribution losses 569 vitrified morulae, observing which reach last pre-implantatory stage are able to implant. However, found not all had ability continue with their...

Contents An artificial insemination programme was carried out to study the effect of factors such as depth semen deposition, inseminator skill, farm, sire and expression oestrus on pregnancy rate in Murciano–Granadina (MG) goats during non‐breeding season using frozen semen. Frozen‐thawed from six males applied by three technicians inseminate a total 551 17 farms distributed throughout Mediterranean area Spain. Pregnancy determined at 6 weeks after transabdominal ecography. Overall 57%. Farm...

Assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs), such as in vitro embryo culture or cryopreservation, affect natural development patterns with perinatal and postnatal consequences. To ensure the innocuousness of ART applications, studies animal models are necessary. In addition, a last step, require evaluation their capacity to develop full-term healthy offspring. Here, transfer uterus is indispensable perform any ARTs-related experiment. The rabbit has been used model organism study mammalian...
