Mycotoxins - Impact on Boar Health and Semen Quality

We have received numerous reports this fall from both boar studs and producers who are facing challenges when feeding new crop corn that may contain higher levels of mold or mycotoxins. The increase in mold spore activity is due largely to a much cooler and wetter growing season in many parts of the Midwest.

Featured Product

Eco-Tip Semen Tube™

The Eco-Tip Semen Tube is made from super-thin, soft, flexible material. This ensures that the tube will collapse during insemination due to the uterine contractions of the sow and makes it unnecessary to apply pressure to the tube (squeezing) or to open a hole in the tube to allow air inside during insemination. The consistent tube wall thickness facilitates better sealing.

The end is an easy twist-off that allows it to be opened without the use of tools. After opening, the tip stays attached to the tube body without interfering with attachment to the insemination catheter. This prevents the tip from contaminating the pit and subsequently the environment. A larger spout opening and slight spout taper means the tube will fit more tightly into the catheter than competing brands and allows for better semen flow during insemination. Textured sides make the tubes separate easily from the stack when used in automated filling machines (less incidence of two tubes getting stuck together).

The tubes are available in 7 colors. This tube is suitable for use in all manual filling stations and automated machines.
