Pig 4MID® Kit description
The Pig 4MID® Kit (Ref. 4VDX-18K2) is the first molecular test that validate objectively semen quality by quantifying a protein named proAKAP4 in boar semen
The measure of the proAKAP4 concentrations in boar semen with the Pig 4MID® Kit brings:
- Objective information on boar semen quality
- Qualification of each breeding male
- Qualification of each ejaculate / of each dose
- Shelf-life Assessment at D+1, D+3, D+5 etc. based on a molecular approach
- Selection of semen with long lasting motility
- Traceability in the quality of the semen during all the life of the boar
- A functional indicator of male fertility
Application : for in vitro determination of proAKAP4 concentration in boar sperm (all breeds)
For Research Use Only / Not for Diagnosis or Therapeutic Use
