The effects of four different extenders and two sperm‐to‐egg ratios on fertilizing ability of cryopreserved testicular sperm of northern pike (Esox lucius L.) were tested in the present study. Testicular sperm was diluted with each of the four extenders (0.6 m sucrose + 15% DMSO, 0.3 m glucose + 15% DMSO, 0.6 m sucrose + 10% methanol and 0.3 m glucose + 10% methanol, all supplemented with 10% egg yolk and 1.7 g KCl L?1) and frozen in 0.5‐ml straws at 2 cm above the surface of liquid nitrogen and thawed at 25°C for 30 s. Then 125 μl or 50 μl of frozen‐thawed testicular sperm was poured onto about 1250 eggs for fertilization. The results showed that both sperm‐to‐egg ratio and diluent had no significant influence on cryopreservation efficiency of testicular sperm, whereas cryoprotectant had a significant influence. The highest fertilization rate (92.2%) was obtained from testicular sperm cryopreserved in glucose‐based extender containing 10% methanol at a sperm‐to‐egg ratio of 1 × 106 spermatozoa per egg. The results indicated that glucose‐based extender containing 10% methanol, 10% egg yolk and 1.7 g KCl L?1 was a useful combination. 相似文献

The feasibility of using frozen-thawed semen in caprine IVF outside the breeding season was investigated. Electroejaculated spermatozoa from a Nubian buck were washed twice and then frozen in skim milk- or in egg yolk-based extenders. Goat oocytes were matured and inseminated by frozen-thawed spermatozoa selected by swim-up. In vitro fertilization was performed in a modified defined medium (mDM), altered experimentally, for 24 h. Embryos were cultured in 50 microL of c-SOF + NEA for 9 d. The percentages of oocytes exposed to heparin-capacitated spermatozoa, (previously cryopreserved in skim milk-based extender) that cleaved, reached morula, blastocyst and expanded blastocyst stages were 82.8, 57.1, 35.7 and 30.0%, respectively. Without heparin treatment the rates for cleavage, morula, blastocyst and expanded blastocyst stages were 44.3, 31.4, 18.6 and 8.6%, respectively. Therefore, heparin treatment was included in sperm capacitation. Use of spermatozoa with BSA in the IVF medium yielded no cleavage. Although extenders containing 8 to 20% egg yolk enabled good sperm motility after cryopreservation, in vitro fertilizing ability was compromised under our conditions. By contrast, semen commercially processed in season in an egg yolk-based diluent remained effective for IVF. The highest proportion of blastocysts resulted from the use of spermatozoa diluted in a skim milk extender, heparin capacitation, and insemination in medium containing lamb serum. 相似文献

The addition of chicken egg yolk to semen extenders is thought to reduce the fertilizing potential of rooster spermatozoa - but not (or at least not as much) that of other avian species. The aim of the present study was to determine whether quail egg yolk, a novel extender additive, provides advantages over chicken egg yolk in the cryopreservation of rooster spermatozoa. Experiments were also performed to determine whether the harmful effect of egg yolk occurs during cryopreservation or during fertilization after artificial insemination. Heterospermic rooster semen samples were divided into aliquots and cooled in a polyvinylpyrrolidone-based medium containing 15% chicken egg yolk, 15% quail egg yolk or no egg yolk at all. The viability of spermatozoa of cooled samples (5 °C) without egg yolk were less viable (P < 0.01) than those of samples containing either type of egg yolk. The same aliquots were then cryopreserved for 15 days. Thawed spermatozoa preserved without egg yolk showed lower motility (P < 0.001) and viability (P < 0.001) than those in samples diluted with either type of egg yolk extender. No eggs were fertilized when hens were inseminated with semen that had been diluted with chicken egg yolk. The fertilization rate was only slightly higher when sperm diluted with quail egg yolk was used (1.5%). The best results were obtained when no egg yolk was used (13.8%). These results show that the addition of egg yolk of either type protects rooster sperm cells against cold shock and during freezing and thawing, but exerts a contraceptive effect in the genital tract of the hen. 相似文献

The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different extenders, cryoprotectants and glycerol additions on the post‐thaw fertility and interactions between extenders and cryoprotectants during cryopreservation. Semen was collected by abdominal stripping from 30 adult male rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) and diluted with three different extenders (Erdahl–Graham, Lahnsteiner, glucose‐based) containing 15% DMA, 15% DMSO, 15% DMA + 1% glycerol and 15% DMSO + 1% glycerol at a ratio of 1 : 2. Diluted samples were frozen as 0.1 ml pellets directly on dry ice (solid CO2, −79°C). Eggs were pooled from 10 females. Fertilization was applied in plastic dishes and 600 eggs were used in each fertilization trial. Pellets were thawed in their own extenders (30°C) at a ratio of 1 : 10. 0.3% NaCl was used for activating motility. Sperm–egg ratio was approximately 3 × 106 sp per egg. Experimental success was determined as the percentage of eyed‐eggs 25 days after fertilization. The highest eyed‐egg rate (49.3%) was obtained from semen frozen with glucose‐based extender containing 15% DMSO + 1% glycerol. Our results indicate that the glucose‐based extender containing DMSO is a useful combination, but that the addition of glycerol does not have a positive effect on post‐thaw fertility, and that interaction of the extender‐cryoprotectant is also important in the cryopreservation of rainbow trout semen. 相似文献

The effect of egg yolk, low density lipoproteins (LDL) as well as methylxanthines (caffeine and theophylline) and fertilization diluent on cryopreservation efficiency of northern pike, Esox lucius, spermatozoa was tested. Milt was cryopreserved in pellets on dry ice then stored in liquid nitrogen. The extender consisted of 0.6 M sucrose + 15% DMSO supplemented with egg yolk or LDL fractions. The most effective results (77.3% hatched larvae vs 74.1% in the control group) were obtained from extender that contained only 0.6 M sucrose + 15% DMSO and was used for freezing, while the fertilization diluent was used for thawing. Addition of egg yolk or LDL to the extender did not improve the results. The presence of caffeine in the thawing solution significantly lowered fertilization rate of cryopreserved spermatozoa, whereas theophylline did not significantly affect the results. The addition of fertilization diluent to the eggs prior to insemination was superior to the other treatments. The proposed procedure constitutes a complete method for the efficient cryopreservation of northern pike semen. 相似文献

Post-mortem sperm recovery and cryopreservation could be a complement to germplasm banking in sheep, especially for endangered breeds. This study is an attempt to identify factors for improving the success of cryopreserving ram epididymal spermatozoa, considering the decrease of sperm quality with post-mortem time. Epididymal spermatozoa from 9 rams were kept at 5°C using three storage methods: within the epididymes, undiluted sperm mass, and diluted in extenders of different osmolality (TES-Tris-fructose at 320, 370 or 420 mOsm/kg, 20% egg yolk, 8% glycerol). At 0, 24, 48 and 72h, spermatozoa were cryopreserved using each extender. Samples were analyzed before and after cryopreservation by CASA (motility) and flow cytometry (viability and acrosomal status). Post-mortem time decreased pre-freezing and post-thawing sperm quality. Some storage x extender combinations improved the effect of post-mortem time on sperm quality. Both epididymis storage combined with the 420 extender, and storing the spermatozoa diluted in the 320 extender improved post-thawing quality, especially at long post-mortem times. Storing the spermatozoa diluted in the 370 extender was detrimental for the acrosomal status. These findings have practical applications. The simplest storage method (within the epididymes) seems to be adequate if hyperosmotic extenders were used for freezing. An alternative method could be storing the spermatozoa diluted in a hypoosmotic extender. These recommendations are limited to the osmolalities tested in this study (420 mOsm/kg and 320 mOsm/kg); other osmolalities should be tested. 相似文献

Cryopreservation of sperm is common procedures in aquaculture, particularly used for routine in artificial insemination. However, these application cause damages and adversely affected sperm motility, viability and consequently lower hatching rates. The objective of this study is to determine whether propolis has an effect on cryopreservation and fertilization ability and to investigate the potential protective effect of propolis on spermatozoa of Cyprinus carpio. Many studies have been done in cryopreservation offish spermatozoa, but none of them contain propolis in extender composition. The extenders were prepared by using modified Kurokura Solution to which 10% Me2SO added with different levels of propolis (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1 mg ml−1) and 10% egg yolk (as a control without propolis). The pooled semen samples diluted at the ratio of 1:9 by the extenders were subjected to cryopreservation. The percentage and duration of motility and fertilization tests of cryopreserved sperm samples have been done immediately after thawing and compared with control and fresh semen. The extenders containing propolis exhibited higher percentage motility and motility duration than control group (P < 0.05). Especially the group IV (0.8 mg ml−1 propolis) and the group V (1 mg ml−1 propolis) showed significant positive effects on both post thaw motility and hatching ability. The propolis maintained the integrity of the spermatozoa during the cryopreservation process. Evaluating with its contents, it has been shown that propolis is an appropriate cryoprotective agent in fish semen. 相似文献

The process of freezing and thawing induces certain cellular damage in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) spermatozoa. We have previously demonstrated that after freezing and thawing decreased fertility in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) spermatozoa, is related to sublethal damage to the plasma membrane. External cryoprotectants are known to stabilize the sperm cell membrane against such damage. In the current study, we used a basic freezing extender containing #6 Erdahl and Graham and 7% DMSO and added egg yolk, BSA, and a soybean-protein complex (DanPro S760) singly and in various combinations. To assess the effect of these cryoprotectants we evaluated the percentage of cells with progressive motility, permeability of cells to propidium iodide (viability) after exposure for 30 sec, 2, 5, 10 and 15 min. to hypo- and isoosmotic solutions of 10 and 300 mOsm, and the in vitro fertility rate. Fertility trials were performed using 1.87 x 10(7) spermatozoa/egg. Some of the tested stabilizers increased motility, increased viability, or reduced cell fragility after freezing and thawing. Nevertheless these quality improvements demonstrated by the "in vitro" tests do not always correlate with high fertility. The best membrane protection in terms of resistance to hypoosmotic shock was achieved when BSA and egg yolk were added to the extender. The highest fertility rates were obtained with DanPro S760 alone or in combination with BSA; the use of BSA with egg yolk did not improve this parameter. Our results demonstrated that some external cryoprotectants effectively increased membrane resistance during freezing and thawing, but some of the tested mixtures interfered with fertilization. Soybean protein concentrate provided good protection and increased fertility rates in cryopreserved trout spermatozoa. 相似文献

Long-term preservation of chilled canine semen: effect of commercial and laboratory prepared extenders 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The present study was conducted to evaluate chilled semen conservation over time in 3 commercial and 4 laboratory prepared extenders, including a new Tris-glucose extender. The beneficial effect of adding egg yolk to these media was also analyzed. The effects of these extenders on motility and acrosome reaction were characterized objectively using a computer-aided semen analyzer and the chlortetracycline staining, respectively. No significant differences were observed when comparing the different commercial extenders without egg yolk, but addition of egg yolk improved all motility parameters significantly (preservation of 50% of motility was observed at 3.2+/-1, 2.9+/-0.5, 2.3+/-0.5, 8.5+/-0.2, 5.4+/-1.1, 5.2+/-0.4 d, for Biladyl, green extender and fresh-phos extenders without and with egg yolk, respectively). Motility parameters were best preserved in egg yolk supplemented Biladyl extender with a mean percentage of 86.3+/-10.5 motile spermatozoa after 7 d at 4 degrees C. Efficacy of egg yolk-supplemented commercial extenders on sperm motility at 4 degrees C was (in decreasing order) as follows: Biladyl > green extender > fresh-phos. However, high quality motility and the percentage of motile spermatozoa were highest with some of the laboratory prepared extenders: a 50% conservation rate of motile spermatozoa was observed following the use of supplemented egg yolk extenders. These are classified in decreasing order as follows: Tris-glucose (13+/-1 d) > Tris-fructose (9.7+/-0.6) > EDTA (4.+/-0.6 d) > Tris-bes (3.6+/-1.1 d). A low concentration of motile spermatozoa was still observed in the Tris-glucose egg yolk extender 16 d after collection, clearly demonstrating the importance of the medium and the beneficial effect of egg yolk on sperm motility of 4 degrees C chilled semen. Similar effects of extender were observed for acrosome reactions. Egg yolk clearly had a protective effect reducing acrosome reactions significantly in all media tested as follows: the highest acrosome losses were observed in the fresh-phos and EDTA extenders without egg yolk; the lowest rate was observed with Tris-glucose supplemented egg yolk extender. In conclusion, at 4 degrees C, egg yolk extender best-protected sperm motility parameters. Differences in osmolarity between the extenders in terms of substrate related to sperm metabolic activity may explain the optimal results obtained using egg yolk-supplemented Tris-glucose extender, which preserved motility and acrosome integrity in chilled dog semen. These results indicated that good quality dog spermatozoa could be preserved for up to 10 d. 相似文献

Seven published extenders, three thawing media and two thawing temperatures were tested in order to determine their suitability for cryopreservation of northern pike ( Esox lucius L.) sperm. Sperm motility during successive steps of cryopreservation was evaluated. Erdahl and Graham's extender with the addition of egg yolk proved to be the most efficient (maximum hatching rate of 74.5%) when semen was thawed in 120 m m NaCl solution warmed up to 30° C. No correlations between motility of sperm (diluted in extenders or diluted in extenders and then activated with thawing solution) and the subsequent hatching success were observed. The relationship between motility of thawed sperm and its fertilization ability was considerable, but correlation was not significant. Spermatozoa frozen in some extenders were frequently motile after thawing but they were not able to fertilize the eggs, this resulted in a poor hatching rate. Depending on the extender, the addition of yolk induced either positive or detrimental effects on fertilization success. 相似文献

Dimethyl-acetamide was evaluated as a cryoprotectant for rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss ) semen on the basis of motility, percentage of dead spermatozoa as determined by fluorometry, and fertility of frozen-thawed spermatozoa. Dimethyl-acetamide performed significantly better (P<0.05) than the conventional cryoprotectant, dimethyl sulfoxide, by all evaluation methods. An extender comprised of 0.137 M NaCl, 0.011 M KCl, 0.004 M Na(2)HPO(4) 7H(2)O, 7.5 g/l L-alpha-lecithin and 10 % DMA showed promise for cryopreserving rainbow trout spermatozoa. Future evaluation of new extenders should be carried out by several in vitro techniques and fertility measurements to present a complete assessment of an extender's ability to cryopreserve sperm cells. 相似文献

Plant-derived lecithin has been used as a more sanitary alternative to avian egg yolk in livestock sperm cryopreservation protocols but its efficacy for cryopreserving fish sperm has not previously been tested comparatively. Here various concentrations of soybean lecithin were evaluated for the cryopreservation of carp (Cyprinus carpio) sperm. Sexually mature fish were induced to spermiation and ovulation with ovopel. The extenders were prepared by using 300 mM glucose, 10% DMSO, supplemented with different ratios of lecithin (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) and 10% egg yolk (control I). Negative control was made without egg yolk and soybean lecithin (control II). The pooled semen was diluted separately at ratio of 1:3 (v/v) by using egg yolk and soybean-based extenders. Diluted semen placed into 0.25 ml straws were equilibrated at 4 °C for 15 min and frozen in liquid nitrogen vapor. Fertilization was conducted using a ratio of 1 × 105 spermatozoa/egg. Supplementation of 10% lecithin to extender showed the best cryoprotective effect for sperm motility and duration of motility against freezing damage compared to 15%, 20% and control II groups (p < 0.05). Cryopreserved sperm with extender containing 10% lecithin provided a greater result in terms of fertilization success when compared to extenders containing 20% lecithin or control II (p < 0.05). 相似文献

Improved cryopreservation protocol for Blanca-Celtibérica buck semen collected by electroejaculation

The collection of sperm samples by electroejaculation (EE) leads to an increase of the production of seminal plasma which could modify the tolerance of spermatozoa to the cryopreservation procedure. This study aims to compare a standard sperm cryopreservation protocol for samples collected by artificial vagina (AV) with the same protocol and modifications to this for samples obtained by EE. Semen from six males of Blanca-Celtibérica goat breed was collected by AV (control) and EE, and three experiments were conducted. In Experiment 1, it was examined the effects of egg yolk concentration contained in freezing extender (0%, 1.5%, 10% and 20% of egg yolk); in Experiment 2, it was evaluated the cooling rate from 30 to 5 °C (fast: 10 min and slow: 90 min) and the temperature of glycerol addition (30 and 5 °C); and in Experiment 3, it was examined the time of equilibration at 5 °C (0, 1, 2 or 3 h). A heterologous in vitro fertilization test was carried out in order to compare the fertility of control samples with that resulting from the EE protocol which showed the highest sperm quality. Results showed greater sperm motility parameters after thawing for control samples cryopreserved in standard conditions in the three experiments. For samples collected by EE, extender with 20% egg yolk, a slow cooling rate and a longer equilibration time (3 h) provided higher sperm quality, and no differences were observed between temperatures of glycerol addition. Samples collected by EE and cryopreserved with the protocol which yielded the best sperm quality after thawing showed higher fertility compared to AV. 相似文献

A new integrated approach including computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA), viability staining and fertilization was used to study the quality of cryodiluents used in fish sperm cryopreservation. As an example the sperm quality of an African catfish, Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822), was assessed by its fertilizing ability, motility and viability at day 0 (fresh), after 2 days' storage at 4 degreesC and after 2 days, 5 months and 10 months frozen at -196 degreesC using solutions containing dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) or glycerol as permeating cryoprotectants. Four of the best freezing solutions were used, namely, Steyn's extender (S1, S4) and Mounib's extender (M3, M4) associating 10% hen's egg yolk. Progressive sperm movement measured by CASA and expressed by the straight line velocity (VSL), the average path velocity (VAP) and the curvilinear velocity (VCL) was highly correlated with hatching rates obtained from fertilization using minimal sperm:egg ratios. After 2 days, the motility of spermatozoa frozen with DMSO and 10% egg yolk had deteriorated less than that of spermatozoa stored at 4 degreesC. Post-thaw hatching rates reflected the post-thaw sperm viability, which was cryodiluent dependent: 14.9+/-2.0% (S4), 17.0+/-4.2% (S1), 25.9+/-3.7% (M4) and 52.1+/-3.4% (M3) after 5 months of cryopreservation. The percent motility of 10-months-frozen spermatozoa was high in M3 (70.7+/-11.4%) and M4 (64.0+/-2.0%) cryoprotected sperm when measured between 5 and 20 sec after activation, but decreased rapidly to 24.3+/-8.3% (M3) and 23.0+/-9.0% (M4) between 21 and 35 sec after activation. Mounib's extender (M3, M4) provided the best cryoprotection to the spermatozoa for all post-thaw sperm quality measurements and at all freezing durations. Sperm motility was positively related to fertility. Our method will make it possible to develop even better extenders and cryoprotectants. 相似文献

Ten semen extenders were tested in two experiments for cryopreservation of semen collected from four Finn and four Dorset rams. Two ejaculates of semen were combined from each ram for testing each extender treatment. The extenders consisted of a series of commonly used egg yolk-TRIS media with and without sodium and triethanolamine lauryl sulfate (STLS), a similar extender with 3-N-morpholino propane sulfonic acid (MOPS), and milk and whey extenders. In Experiment 1, extender treatments were replicated with three sets of collections from the eight rams, and in Experiment 2 with two sets. The egg yolk-TRIS-glycerol-STLS (EY(1)TSTLS) extender was significantly superior to other extenders except whole milk in protecting the sperm during freezing and thawing. In Experiment 1, a 20% egg yolk-TRIS-glycerol-STLS extender preserved 71% of the progressively motile Finn sperm (post-thaw divided by pre-freeze percentage of motile sperm), and 76% of the Dorset sperm. In Experiment 2, the corresponding values for the same EY(1)TSTLS extender used with Finn and Dorset sperm were 86 and 64%, respectively. Without STLS the egg yolk extenders were significantly less effective in protecting cryopreserved ram sperm. This egg yolk-TRIS extender, containing STLS and glycerol, may hold promise for freezing ram sperm that could be used successfully for intracervical insemination. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to identify possible specificity in the extender formulation for the cryopreservation of ram spermatozoa recovered from three origins (ejaculate, electroejaculate or epididymis), by evaluating post-thawing sperm quality and fertility. Ejaculated, electroejaculated or epididymal spermatozoa samples obtained from identical rams (8) were cryopreserved in four different extenders (TES-Tris-fructose with one of two egg yolk concentrations: 10% Y10 and 20% Y20, and with one of two glycerol rates: 4% G4 and 8% G8). Samples were analyzed before and after cryopreservation by CASA (motility) and flow cytometry (viability with SYBR-14/PI and acrosomal status with PNA/PI). Spermatozoa obtained by electroejaculation were of poorer quality after freezing/thawing, demonstrating that protocols for these samples need to be optimized. Egg yolk at 20% was more appropriate for freezing sperm from any of the sources. In general, 4% glycerol improved the quality of post-thawing samples recovered from ejaculate and electroejaculate, while 8% glycerol was more appropriate for samples recovered from the epididymis. Based on these results, an analysis of fertility was conducted. Fertility rates were similar between ewe groups inseminated with post-thawed sperm obtained from two sources: ejaculate (cryopreserved in Y20+G4), and cauda epididymis (Y20+G8), and this rate was less in the electroejaculated sample (Y20+G4). 相似文献

Semen from rainbow trout produced using cryopreserved spermatozoa is more suitable for cryopreservation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Oocytes from three female rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss were inseminated separately with untreated or cryopreserved semen, which had been produced using either untreated (three males) or cryopreserved (three males) spermatozoa. In half of variants, the cryopreservation did not significantly affect fertilization efficiency. Regardless of whether the sperm donors were produced from cryopreserved or intact semen, insemination of oocytes with their intact sperm resulted in the same percentage of eyed embryos (94.4 and 94.3%, respectively). When eggs were inseminated with cryopreserved semen, the use of sperm from males produced with cryopreserved spermatozoa resulted in a significantly higher percentage of eyed eggs than in case of donors produced with intact sperm (89.6 and 81.7%, respectively). The production of rainbow trout using cryopreserved sperm does not appear to negatively affect reproductive abilities of male progeny and semen from donors, which were produced using cryopreserved sperm, is more suitable for cryopreservation than the semen from donors produced with intactspermatozoa. 相似文献

Effects of egg yolk during the freezing step of cryopreservation on the viability of goat spermatozoa 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Four experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of egg yolk during the freezing step of cryopreservation (namely, the process except for the cooling step), on the viability of goat spermatozoa. The effects of egg yolk on sperm motility and acrosome integrity during the freezing step were investigated in Experiment 1. Spermatozoa diluted with Tris-citric acid-glucose (TCG) solution containing 20% (v/v) egg yolk were cooled to 5 degrees C, washed, and then frozen in TCG with egg yolk (TCG-Y), TCG without egg yolk (TGG-NY), 0.370 M trehalose with egg yolk (TH-Y), or trehalose without egg yolk (TH-NY). All extenders contained glycerol. In frozen-thawed spermatozoa, the inclusion of egg yolk in the freezing extenders increased (P<0.05) percentages of motile sperm, progressively motile sperm, and the recovery rate (ratio of post-thaw to pre-freeze values), but decreased (P<0.05) acrosomal integrity. Moreover, extenders with trehalose had better (P<0.05) post-thaw sperm viability. In Experiment 2, the effects of egg yolk on acrosome status before and after freezing were studied. Egg yolk significantly decreased the proportion of intact acrosomes before freezing, leading to fewer (P<0.05) intact acrosomes post-thaw and lower (P<0.05) recovery rates for intact acrosomes. In Experiment 3, including sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in a diluent containing egg yolk tended to preserve the acrosome compared with the egg yolk containing diluent free of SDS, however, spermatozoa had a lower (P<0.05) proportion of intact acrosomes than those in a yolk-free diluent. However, after cooling, spermatozoa were diluted with a glycerolated extender containing egg yolk. Therefore, the objective of Experiment 4 was to explore whether the egg yolk or glycerol was responsible for the reduced intact acrosome percentage. In this experiment, after cooling and washing the spermatozoa were diluted in TCG with glycerol and/or egg yolk. The combination of glycerol and egg yolk in the extender reduced (P<0.05) the proportion of intact acrosomes compared with egg yolk or glycerol alone. In conclusion, the inclusion of egg yolk significantly improved sperm motility, indicating its beneficial effects during the freezing step of cryopreservation; trehalose appeared to synergistically increase its cryoprotective effects. Furthermore, although neither glycerol nor egg yolk per se affected the proportion of intact acrosomes, the combination of the two significantly reduced the proportion of acrosome-intact spermatozoa. 相似文献
