The Influnece of L-carnitine Supplementation on Qualitative and Quantitative Parameters of Duroc Boar Ejaculate
Original language description
The aim of this study was to monitore qualitative and quantitative changes in duroc boar ejaculate after a supplementation of L-carnitine into the basic feed ration. 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. 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 experiment ran from July to August (60 days). Based on the results we confirmed the hypothesis, that L-carnitine has a positive effect on quality of ejaculate. 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 control group (P < 0.05) and as well statistically significant difference between groups (P < 0.05).
