Abstract
Bull and boar spermatozoa suspended in Ringer-fructose solution supplemented with 0, 1, 10 and 1000ng/ml of PGF2α were incubated for 3 h at 37C and the effects of PGF2α on the motility and the metabolism of spermatozoa were examined. No significant effects of PGF2α were observed on the motility, oxygen consumption, fructose utilization and lactic acid accumulation in both bull and boar spermatozoa.
