“…Production of health sperm with strong plasma membrane depends upon the health of animal (Ferramosca and Zara, 2022; Wysokińska and Szablicka, 2021) [7, [8] . An animal offered a complete balanced diet with all essential mineral and nutrient maintains sound reproductive health responsible for production of semen with healthy spermatozoa (Keshri et al, 2022;Schenk, 2018) [9,10] . The animal diet also affects the quantality of antioxidant in the seminal plasma that regulates the ROS level in ejaculated and frozen thaw semen responsible for protecting the sperm against cryoinjuries.…”

A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of group feeding and individual feeding on post thaw semen quality in breeding bucks. A total of 16 health breeding buck maintained at goat frozen semen station DUVASU, Mathura were selected for the experiment. After the initial evaluation of semen quality, the bucks were divided into 2 group. In group 1 bucks were kept in together in a shed while in group II every buck was kept in separate pan and feed individually for 90 days. Thereafter semen was collected from each individual buck from both the groups and semen collected from buck of each group was pooled together to reduce the individual variation. The pooled semen was cryopreserved and later analysed. The result exhibited a significantly (p ≤ 0.01) higher values for viability, mitochondrial potential, motility and path velocity and kinematic character in group II compared to group I. The values for viable ROS +ve spermatozoa and those with damaged acrosome were significantly (p ≤ 0.01) higher in group I. The result of study indicate that the breeding bucks maintained at semen station for frozen semen production should be kept and feed in individual pan.

Effects of dietary chromium supplementation on dry matter intake and milk production and composition in lactating dairy cows: A meta-analysis

IntroductionChromium (Cr) is an essential mineral that has been demonstrated to enhance milk production in dairy cows. This study aims to evaluate the effects of dietary Cr supplementation on dry matter intake (DMI), milk production and composition using a meta-analysis based on existing literature.MethodsA random effects meta-analysis was performed to investigate the effects of dietary Cr supplementation on DMI, milk production and composition. The heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 statistic and Q test, while Egger's test was used to evaluate publication bias.ResultsThe meta-analysis discovered that Cr-supplemented cows had a significantly higher DMI compared to those not supplemented, with an increase of 0.72 kg/day [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.46–0.97]. The regression model indicated that DMI significantly increased by 0.9 g/kg of body weight (BW) and by 80.5 g for an increase of 1 mg of Cr supplement. The supplementation phase was associated with an increase in DMI, with an increase of 0.4582 kg/day for BFP (before parturition) and 0.853 kg/day for AFP (after parturition). The methionine and yeast forms of Cr increased DMI by 0.714 and 1.137 kg/day, respectively. The DMI was increased by 2.137 and 0.620 kg/day for multiparous (MP)+ primiparous (PP) cows and MP cows, respectively. Milk production was also increased by Cr supplementation, with an increase of 1.20 kg/day (95% CI, 0.65–1.76). The regression model indicated that milk production increased by 2.3 g/day for an increase of 1 kg of BW and by 122.4 g/day for an increase of 1 mg of Cr supplement. Milk production also increased with the duration of the experiment and days in milk. The amino acid and methionine forms of Cr complexes increased milk production by 1.645 and 1.448 kg/day, respectively. Milk production increased by 1.087 and 1.920 kg/day for MP and PP cows, respectively. Milk composition was not significantly affected by Cr supplementation. Egger's test for publication biases was not significant for all responses of interest.DiscussionThe meta-analysis showed that Cr supplementation improves DMI and milk production in dairy cows. The results suggest that the supplementation phase, form of Cr, and parity should be considered when supplementing dairy cows with Cr. The results have important implications for the dairy industry and can contribute to the development of more effective feeding strategies for dairy cows.

“…WMD causes new born mortality, especially in ruminants, and impaired production condition in growing and adult animals. Selenium is also required for synthesis of thyroid hormone and it is also very important for converting T4 (thyroxin inactive form) to T3 (active form).Some minerals such as Nickle, Chromium, arsenic and Vanadium are known to clearly have a role in animal health but the exact biochemical nature is unknown and its essentiality have weak evidences [6][7][8][9].…”

Selenium (Se), a micro element was well known for its toxicity at earlier times. But, presently it is listed to be an essential mineral which is required for sound health, better immunity, and efficient reproductive functions of livestock. There is variation in the status of Se in animals and plants across the world based on different geological conditions. Se concentrations of plants are closely related with those of its soil concentration. The deficiency of Se is associated with many health problems viz increased neonatal mortality, lowered immunity poor suckling reflex and white muscle disease in animals. There is significant role of Se in the reproduction of animals. The selenoproteins such as, Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GSH-Px4) and SELENOP have a regulatory role in male reproduction. GSH-Px4 has distinct antioxidant and structural properties and is expressed in testes. The peroxidation of Leydig cells is protected by SELENOP. The specific role of Se involves development of seminiferous tubules, growth of testicular tissues, in process of spermatogenesis, steroidogenesis and in synthesis and secretion of reproductive hormones like follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). In female reproduction, the supplementation of Se may reduce the incidence of metritis and ovarian cysts and decreases the embryonic mortality. Currently, due attention is given on dietary Se supplementation through different (inorganic, organic and nano) forms of Se.
