a Device designed for deep cervical artificial insemination (Dp-CAI) in gilts. The main characteristics of the device are as follows: 1) catheter: 52 cm in length with 17 mm diameter multiring tip; 2) inner cannula: 65 cm in length (reaching 8 cm further than the catheter) and 3 mm in diameter. b Representative image showing the new AI device placed in the uterus of a gilt. Semen deposition occurs deep in the cervix. “L” in the image represents the length (cm) of the device protruding from the gilt during insemination (from the vulva to the end of the insemination device)
