한우의 유전자원을 보존하기 위하여 정액동결 시험을 수행하였으며 고급육계통은 육질에 대한 육종가 상위 10% 이내의 자손에서 선발하였고 다 유계통은 어미의 이유시 체중에 대한 육종가 상위 10%이내의 자손에서 선발하였으며 2개 계통에서 종모우 총 13두를 선발하여 공시하였다. 정액채취는 인공질법으로 실시하였고 의빈대에 수소를 계류하고 채정대상우를 승가시켰으며, 3회 가승가후에 채정하였다. 채정후 10분 이내에 실험실로 옮겨와 검사항목을 조사하고 37에서
This study was carried out to cryopreserve and to investigate characteristics of semen in Hanwoo. Semen was obtained from bulls selected by Daekwanryeong Branch station. Semen was collected each morning of the experiment, placed in water jacketed tubes at 37, and trans-ported to the research laboratory within 10 minutes. Semen was extended with Egg yolk-glycerol extender to contain 5010 sperm/ml. Semen was cooled over a 6h period in water jacketed tubes from about 25 to 5, Egg yolk-glycerol extender was added in one step at 5. Semen was aspirated into 0.5ml straws, which were sealed with powder. Egg yolk-glycerol extender, which is used in Hanwoo sperm frozen and stored, semen from 13 Hanwoo bulls collected, the postthawed percentages of motile sperm were 65.7%. In semen characteristics of Hanwoo bulls, number of bulls volume are 5.7 ml and total cell count are 97510 m1 ejaculate.
