Short-Term Storage of Collared Peccary Semen in a Transport Container at 5°C Using Different Extenders.

The advancement of short-term storage methods for collared peccary semen targets its potential application in artificial insemination programmes and for combination with cryopreservation techniques. The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of a transport container (Botutainer) for the preservation of collared peccary semen using commercial extenders (BTS, NUTRIXcell+ and PRIMXcell Ultra) as well as a TRIS + egg yolk extender. Ten ejaculates obtained by electroejaculation were diluted and stored at 5°C for 72 h.
