Abstract

This study aimed to observe the effect of parity on the blood metabolite profiles and reproductive performance of Saanen-Etawah Crossbred does, maintained in smallholder farm. A total of 40 non-pregnant lactating does were divided into two groups: primiparous (n=16) and multiparous (n=24). The blood metabolite profiles, including total protein, glucose, cholesterol, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), were assessed. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein during the follicular phase, two hours prior morning feeding. Analysis of blood metabolites was carried out using photometric atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS)-flame procedure. Furthermore, reproductive performance was observed through observing the characteristics of estrus and the length of the estrus cycle. The results indicated total protein in blood were significantly higher (p<0.05) in multiparous does (7.04±0.87 g/dL) compared to primiparous does (5.47±1.40 g/dL). In contrast, primiparous does exhibited significantly higher (p<0.05) blood cholesterol levels (122.33±30.55 mg/dL) than multiparous does (107.14±13.45 mg/dL). Multiparous does displayed typical estrus characteristics, including vulvar reddening, swelling, and vaginal mucus production, alongside a significantly shorter estrus cycle length. Parity was positively correlated with total protein levels (r=0.577), vulvar reddening (r=0.355), vulvar swelling (r=0.343), and vaginal mucus production (r=0.450), while negatively correlated with cholesterol levels (r=-0.330) and estrus cycle length (r=-0.532). These findings indicate that parity influences total protein and cholesterol levels, as well as several key estrus characteristics. Further investigation into optimized feed regimens and reproductive hormone fluctuations is warranted to enhance the reproductive efficiency of Saanen-Etawah Crossbred does.

Abstract

Semen cryopreservation is known to cause considerable damage to spermatozoa through the generation of free radicals. This damage can potentially be mitigated by the use of potent antioxidants, such as sodium selenite, which does not impair semen quality when administered in small doses. This study aimed to assess the impact of low-dose sodium selenite supplementation on post-thaw semen quality in Saanen bucks. Semen was collected from 2 superior Saanen bucks and evaluated according to standard criteria before dilution and freezing. Cryopreserved semen was stored in liquid nitrogen (LN2) at a temperature of -196 °C for 90 days. The experimental treatments involved the addition of sodium selenite to the AndroMed® diluent medium at 3 different concentrations: without supplementation/control (C), 5 ppm (T1), and 10 ppm (T2). Frozen semen was thawed at 37 °C in a water bath for 30 seconds before post-thaw quality assessment. The parameters assessed included motility, viability, abnormalities, plasma membrane integrity (PMI), acrosome membrane integrity (AMI), and reactive oxygen species (ROS). The data were statistically analyzed using One-Way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that the addition of sodium selenite had a significant effect (p < 0.05) on motility, viability, PMI, AMI, and ROS production, but did not affect the abnormality (p > 0.05). Interestingly, T1 resulted in the most substantial improvements, yielding the highest percentages of post-thaw motility (71.81±1.05%), viability (73.36±1.08%), PMI (77.49±1.68%), and AMI (79.29±0.63%), as well as the lowest ROS production (13.67±0.50%). In conclusion, the addition of 5 ppm sodium selenite enhances post-thaw semen quality in Saanen bucks.
