Sow reproductive performance following artificial insemination with semen doses processed using Single Layer Centrifugation without antibiotics in the tropics.

Single Layer Centrifugation (SLC) through a low density colloid offers an alternative solution to antibiotic use in boar semen extenders, with lower costs compared to high density colloids. The aim of this study was to explore the reproductive performance of sows when using SLC-prepared semen doses without antibiotics, employing low density Porcicoll to prepare semen doses for artificial insemination in a commercial swine herd in Thailand. Ejaculates were divided into two equal parts to create insemination doses, with each dose containing 3000 × 10
