Treatment by day of semen analysis effect on total motility for Exp1. Semen was collected from six boars and diluted into a commercial extender that was supplemented with the following: 0 mM of betaine (B0), 51 mM of betaine (B51), 102 mM of betaine (B102), and 205 mM of betaine (B205). Semen was analyzed on day 0 (D0) and after 72 h of storage (D3) and analyzed using a CASA system. This figure illustrates that betaine supplemented into semen extender did not impact progressive motility up to 102 mM of betaine (P ≥ 0.063). Progressive motility was significantly reduced with 205 mM of supplemented betaine at D0 and D3 of analysis (P ≤ 0.011), where progressive motility was more severely reduced after storage with B205.
