Fertility Assessment and Prediction Using in Vitro Sperm Function Tests in Murrah Buffalo Bulls
نویسنده
چکیده
The fertility potential of an artificial insemination (AI) dose is a function of the quantity, quality and health status of the semen contained therein. Therefore, identification of additional semen quality attributes associated with fertility could provide more accurate methods to predict, manage and select for AI sire fertility of predicting a bull's fertility rat. The objective of this study was to assess and predict fertilizing potential of Murrah buffalo bull spermatozoa using in vitro tests viz Hypo-osmotic Swelling Test (HOST), Acrosome Reaction (AR), Sperm Mitochondrial Activity Index (SMAI) and Nuclear Chromatin Decondensation Test (NCDT) and to check the accuracy of such a prediction. A total of 40 Murrah bulls were divided into two groups

متن کاملP-119: In Vitro Assessment of Sucrose for Preservation of Buffalo Epididymal Spermatozoa
Background: Epididymal spermatozoa have been used for production of offspring from genetically important animals after they are dead. To attain optimal fertility with epididymal spermatozoa, they should be preserved in a suitable medium in 37°C. Preservation media provides requirement for spermatozoa and affects its motility, viability, and fertility. Sucrose is one of the important components ...

Dimensional characteristics and proportions of live spermatozoa in permanent nigrosin\p=m-\eosinpreparations from the semen samples of Murrah buffalo bulls were studied in different seasons. Between bulls, all the characteristics varied significantly. Between seasons, all the characteristics, except length of head and mid-piece, varied significantly. Environmental temperature and humidity both ...
