Q: What is this ram semen extender used for?
A: It is designed for dilution and chilled short-term preservation of fresh ram semen used in sheep artificial insemination programs.

Q: What is the bottle size?
A: Each bottle contains 100 ml of liquid semen extender.

Q: What dilution ratio is recommended?
A: The current product instructions recommend a semen-to-extender ratio of approximately 1:5 to 1:10.

Q: How should the extender be prepared before use?
A: The product instructions recommend preheating it at approximately 30–33°C for about 10 minutes before dilution.

Q: How long can diluted semen be stored?
A: The manufacturer lists approximately 3–5 days at around 4°C under suitable conditions, but sperm quality should be checked before insemination.

Q: What are the main listed ingredients?
A: The product information lists citric acid, glucose, EDTA, sodium pyruvate and antibiotics among the main components.

Q: Can the bottle be repeatedly warmed and refrigerated?
A: Repeated temperature cycling is not recommended because it may reduce product performance. Transfer only the required amount into a clean tube when possible.

Q: Should semen quality be checked before AI?
A: Yes. Stored diluted semen should be evaluated microscopically for motility before artificial insemination.
