        The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of caffeine and theophilline on sperm motility during in vitro fertilization (IVF). Briefly, commercial boar semen was centrifuged and resuspended (5x107 sperms/ml) with fertilization medium (mTBM) supplemented with 2 mM caffeine (Caf), 5 mM theophylline (The), 2 mM caffeine + 5mM theophylline (Caf + The), and not supplemented control. The semen parameters of the four groups were analyzed by computer-assisted semen analysis (CASA, Medical Supply Co. Ltd) system at 6 h as time for IVF at 38.5 C under 5 % CO2 in air. The groups were examined 11 semen parameters such as total motility (TM), curvilinier velocity (VCL), straight-line velocity (VSL), average-path velocity (VAP), and hyperactivated (HYP), etc. A total motility of control group (41.3 %) at 6 h showed significantly (P<0.05) higher than those of other groups (Caf, 37.2; The, 35.2; Caf + The, 30.1 %). Results from many other sperm parameters indicated that the theophylline and caffeine negatively affected on sperm motility during IVF. These results suggested that the supplementation of caffeine and/or theophylline was not essential for IVF in pigs. To prove this suggestion, further studies are needed to analyze fertility and embryonic development after IVF with or without the supplementation of caffeine and/or theophylline.
