DISTRIBUTION OF FROZEN-THAWED SPERMATOZOA IN THE REPRODUCTIVE TRACT OF GILTS AT DIFFERENT TIME INTERVALS AFTER INSEMINATION

Summary.: The distribution of spermatozoa in the uterus and oviducts in twelve gilts was determined 1 and 4 hr, respectively, after insemination of 10¹⁰ deep-frozen spermatozoa thawed in seminal plasma or in TESNaK-glucose buffer. The numbers found in the oviducts 4 hr after insemination were markedly higher when the spermatozoa were thawed in seminal plasma. Different theories are advanced concerning the mode of action of the seminal plasma in this respect.
