A TRIAL TO TESTIFY THE SAFETY OF VACCINAL MYXOMA VIRUS ONSPERMATOGENESIS IN RABBITS
Journal Title: TRADITION AND MODERNITY IN VETERINARY MEDICINE - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The aim of our study was to monitor in dynamics the impact and safety of attenuated vaccinal myxomavirus strain on some rabbit semen characteristics. Male rabbits of New Zealand White line were vaccinated (onD0) with attenuated myxomatosis vaccine with standard dose (group A, n=10) and compared in dynamic tocontrol unvaccinated animals (group B, n=6). The samples were collected using an artificial vagina twice – onD20 and D50 post vaccination. Semen samples were analyzed using CASA system in order to evaluate theconcentration, motility and velocity parameters of rabbit spermatozoa. Our study showed that there is no negativeinfluence in basic spermatogenic parameters and the quality of rabbits’ semen is not negatively affectedby standard myxomatosis vaccination.
