A Comparison of Proteins in Seminal Plasma of Buffalo Bulls and Cattle Bulls

Veenu Minhas and Hari Mohan Saxena

The total protein concentration in seminal plasma from cattle bulls was found to be very significantly higher (p<0.01) than that of buffalo bulls. However, native – PAGE profiles of seminal plasma revealed two extra proteins (p16 and p<14) in case of buffalo seminal plasma only, in addition to the three proteins (p43-45, p34 and p29) common to seminal plasma from both, buffalo and cattle bulls. Further studies are needed to understand the exact physiological roles and significance of the extra proteins in buffalo.
