Paris: INRA: IGA: Institut de Elevage, 2000. v. 1, p. 449-450.c2000  aTodata, no information is available of regulatory threshold limit of bacterial load in buck semen, so work is needed in the area as semen with high bacterial load impairs the reproductive functions of males and females. There Before, the present study emphasizes a need to establish a limit for the number of non pathogenic organisms that can be present in buck semen that is to be used for artificial insemination.
