چکیده

this study was carried out to investigate effects of copper sulphate (cuso4) additive to semen extenders on sperm parameters: progressive motility, viability, membrane integrity and dna damage, after semen dilution and cryopreservation. semen samples of 5 buffalo bulls of 3-5 years old were collected at 5 different occasions during the autumn 2011. a total number of 25 samples were used in each examination. sperm progressive motility and viability were measured at 0 (t0), 60 (t1) and 120 (t2) min after diluting semen in tris-citric acid extender containing 0 (control), 0.004, 0.008, 0.016, 0.032 and 0.064 mg l-1 cuso4. later, semen was diluted in a tris-citric acid-egg yolk-glycerol extender containing the same amounts of cuso4, cooled to 4 ˚c and kept refrigerated for 4 hr to equilibrate, sperm progressive motility, viability, membrane integrity and dna damage were estimated. then, semen was packed in 0.5 ml french straws and frozen in liquid nitrogen. later, the frozen semen was thawed in 37 ˚c water bath for 30 sec, and the same parameters as well as total antioxidant capacity (tac) of the frozen-thawed semen were estimated. the results showed that copper additive at the rate of 0.032 mg l-1 gives a better protection of sperms through the process of dilution, equilibration and freeze-thawing than that in control and other cu concentrations, while 0.064 mg l-1 cuso4 had deleterious effect on the sperm.

P-143: Effects of In Vitro Copper Supplementation on The Ejaculated Semen Parameters in Water Buffaloes (Bubalus Bubalis)

Background: A number of studies have demonstrated membrane lipid peroxidation (LPO) as one of the causes of defective sperm function in liquid semen preserved at 4◦C and cryopreserved semen. Some attempt has been made to preserve sperm parameters, particularly sperm motility, by adding some elements and Materials to the semen before freezing. Materials and Methods: To investigate effects of cop...

P-103: Effects of In Vitro Selenium Supplementation on Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) Sperm Quality following Cryopreservation

Background: Artificial insemination is a valuable tool in genetic improvement programs and widely used breeding technique in farm animals. Semen processing and cryopreservation causes considerable damage to sperm DNA, motility apparatus, plasma membrane, acrosomal cap and thus, reduced fertility. Selenium is an integral part of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), an enzyme which protects cell inte...

Effects of in vitro selenium addition to the semen extender on the spermatozoa characteristics before and after freezing in water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis)

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of in vitro supplementation of selenium on fresh and frozen spermatozoa quality of buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bulls. Five healthy buffalo bulls (5 ejaculates from each bull) were used. Each ejaculate was diluted at 37 ˚C with tris-based extender containing 0 (control), 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 8 μg mL-1 sodium selenite and the sperm motility and...

Analysis of In Vitro Effects of Sex Steroids on Lymphocyte Responsiveness in Murrah Buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis)

Present study was carried out on forty four apparently healthy Murrah buffaloes of different age groups of both sexes to investigate the effects of sex steroids on cell mediated immunity in vitro. Estrogen inhibited proliferation in mitogen-stimulated lymphocytes from prepubertal but not post pubertal buffaloes of either sex. Estrogen at 100 pg/mL concentration stimulating the proliferation sig...
