What is DICOL?<\/strong><\/p>\n

DICOL is a semen collection extender unique in the market, formulated by Magapor to prevent or solve contamination problems in seminal doses<\/strong>.<\/span> It is used in the collection phase and guarantees the quick cleansing of the ejaculate -in 30 minutes- and the control of bacterial contamination prior to the final extension with the usual extenders of Magapor.<\/p>\n

Its use is recommended in these cases:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Boars with high contamination levels in semen.<\/li>\n
  • Determined seasons or geographical areas with high temperatures or humidity and high risk of bacterial growth.<\/li>\n
  • Prevention in prone boars.<\/li>\n
  • Prepuce washings.<\/li>\n
  • Contaminated equipment \/ disposable material.<\/li>\n
  • Introduction of new animals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    DICOL contains a combination of synergistic action antibiotics, according to European regulation and acting against a broad spectrum of bacteria.<\/p>\n

    Besides, we must emphasize that the Dicol concept is based on the elimination of multi-resistant bacteria through the IDEAL COMBINATION<\/strong> of antibiotics, but NOT by the addition of a large quantity of them<\/u>.<\/span> This is very important to be emphasized. Indeed, DICOL was developed using the MBC-Minimum Bactericidal Concentration.<\/p>\n

    Currently there is no similar product on the market for the collection and disinfection of swine ejaculates. Most centers use the same preservation extender as a bed for the collection of the ejaculate. As a consequence, the literature describes widely that approximately 20% of the commercial doses of swine semen on the market are contaminated (> 300 CFU \/ ml) (CFU: Colony Forming Units).<\/p>\n

    In addition, DICOL complies with the program for quality control that Magapor applies to its entire range of extenders.<\/p>\n

    What is not DICOL?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    DICOL is not, by itself, an extender for the preservation of seminal doses.<\/span> Its use combined with the range of Magapor extenders will maximize the protection against possible problems of contamination, and also will fight punctual or periodic outbreaks of infection by multi-resistant bacteria.<\/p>\n

    How should you use DICOL?<\/strong> \u00a0\u00a0Very easy\u2026<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Dilute an envelope of Dicol in 1 litre of water at 37\u00baC<\/li>\n
    2. Pour 150 ml of this dilution into the collection thermos<\/li>\n
    3. Perform extraction to the boar<\/li>\n
    4. Wait 30 minutes<\/li>\n
    5. Continue with the normal process … (subsequent extension with preservative extenders from the Magapor range).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Below you can see the results obtained by our Veterinary department after some research on ejaculates treated with Dicol.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
