The effect of various forms (organic, inorganic) and levels of selenium on the laboratory values of the ejaculate of breeding boars in summer season

Original language description

The experiment was based on feeding the organic and inorganic forms of selenium and the assessment of their effects on the laboratory values of the ejaculate (total count of sperm, sperm motility, ejaculate volume, sperm concentration and per cent of pathological sperm) in breeding boars. The experiment involved 78 boars divided into four equal groups. The individual groups received feed mixtures with the supplement of 0.3 and 0.6 mg Se/kg of feed mixture in organic form, and 0.3 and 0.6 mg Se/kg of feed mixture in inorganic form. In the last 30 days of our study the boars were exposed to higher ambient temperatures. The selenium supplement significantly decreased the sperm concentration in boars supplemented by 0.3 mg Se/kg of feed mixture in inorganic form; this group of boars also had a lower total count of sperm produced . The group of boars receiving the inorganic selenium supplement of 0.6 mg/kg of feed mixture had a lower sperm concentration however ejaculate volume increase occ
