tThe additives of animal origin including egg yolk, widely used for sperm preservation. In order tominimize the impact on the use of animal products, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect oflyophilized extract of Aloe vera and ACP 102® in ram semen refrigerated at 4°C for 48h. Ejaculates from threeram were split into three aliquots and diluted in ACP®, ACP®/ALV and ALV. Motility and viability was evaluatedafter sperm dilution, 2h, 24h and 48h of storage at 4°C. Results showed that there was a reduction in total andprogressive motility of fresh as compared to other storage time. No differences were observed in viability of freshand 2h as well as there was no difference of semen at for 24h and 48h storage. In conclusion, study showed that theaddition of lyophilized Aloe vera extract was able to maintain semen viability similar to ACP.(AU)
