The effect of L-carnitine daily supplementation on quality of ejaculate of duroc boars
Original language description
The objective of this study was to find out whether the daily supplementation of l-carnitine had an effect on the quality of the ejaculate of duroc boars. L-carnitine was supplemented for 60 days, which were divided into 3 periods (n = 30 days). For the experiment were selected 12 duroc boars and were divided into two groups. Control group (n = 6) was fed by basic feed mixture only. Experimental group (n = 6) was fed by basic feed mixture with the addition of 500 mg of L-carnitine/kg of the basic mixture. The monitored ejaculate parameters included volume of ejaculate, sperm concentration, total rate of sperm, motility and percentage of morphologically abnormal sperm. Amount of L-carnitine in ejaculate was monitored as well. By the results we confirmed the hypothesis, that L-carnitine has a positive effect on quality of ejaculate. Statistically significant effect was determined in sperm motility and in amount of morphologically abnormal sperm. In sperm motility there was insignificant increase in experimental group, but there was statistically significant difference between groups (P < 0.05). In the amount of morphologically abnormal sperm, there was statistically significant increase in experimental group (P < 0.05) and as well statistically significant difference between groups (P < 0.05).
