Viability of bull semen extended with commercial semen extender and two culture media stored at 24 ° C

چکیده
The aim of this study was to evaluate the viability of bull spermatozoa diluted with commercial semen extender and two culture media stored at controlled room temperature (24 °C) for 72 hours. Two Nguni bulls were used for semen collection with the aid of an electro-ejaculator. After macroscopic evaluation, semen was pooled and aliquoted randomly into Triladyl, modified Ham’s F10, and TCM-199 culture media, and then stored at 24 °C. Sperm motility parameters, morphology, and viability were analysed with computer aided sperm analysis (CASA) after 0, 24, 48 and 72 hours. The study was replicated four times, and data were analysed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). Triladyl had significantly higher sperm viability rate (41.3%) and total motility rate (96.3%) for 72 hours than modified Ham’s F10 (86.8%; 26.5%) and TCM-199 (76.7%; 25.0%) culture media. Ham’s F10 had higher progressive motility rate (37.8%) than the other extenders TCM-199 (31.7%) and Triladyl (23.4%). There was no significant difference in viability rate between Ham’s F10 (26.5%) and TCM-199 (25.0 %) after 72 hours’ storage at 24 °C. Furthermore, no significant difference was observed in total sperm abnormalities, except for reacted acrosomes and absent tails, between the two Nguni bulls. Nguni semen can be preserved in Triladyl or modified Ham’s F10 and TCM-199 culture media, stored at 24 °C, and stay viable for 72 hours.

The present study was designed to see whether adding glutathione to tris-citric egg yolk extender improves the quality of buffalo bull spermatozoa stored at 5°C for five days. Semen collected from Nili-Ravi buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bulls (n = 5) was diluted (37C; 10 x 10 motile spermatozoa per ml) with extender having glutathione (0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0mM). The extended semen was cooled fr...

Animal origin egg yolk extender has been associated with microbial contamination and interference with microscopic examination. Therefore, replacement of such extender with plant origin compound is inevitable without compromising the desired qualities of an ideal extender. In the current experiment, we compared the effect of soy-based extender (25% and 50%) of five adult Holstein-Friesian bulls...

Artificial insemination (AI) in rabbits is not extensive in the breeding programs of the rabbit meat industry. A limiting factor is related to the semen preservation. In order to improve the use of AI, two experiments have been conducted to evaluate sperm viability and fertility of rabbit semen chilled and stored at 15 degrees C after dilution in Tris-based extenders. In Experiment 1, pooled se...
