[ 1 ] - The effect of antioxidant supplementation in semen extenders on semen quality and lipid peroxidation of chilled bull spermatozoa
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of the antioxidants superoxide dismutase (SOD),glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) on microscopic semen parameters andlipid peroxidation following the freeze-thawing of bull semen. Ejaculates were collected from five Holsteinbulls and pooled at 37°C. The semen samples were diluted with a CEY extender containing addit...
[ 2 ] - Protective effects of garlic aquous extract (Allium sativum), vitamin E, and N-acetylcysteine on reproductive quality of male rats exposed to lead
The objective of present study was to investigate the effects of aqueous garlic extracts, vitamin E and N-acetylcysteine on lead-induced lipid peroxidation, changes in antioxidant defense system and semen quality in the rat testes. Twenty-five male rats were divided into five groups. Animals within different treatment groups were maintained on their respective diets for 35 days as follows: grou...
[ 3 ] - Effect of various levels of catalase antioxidant in semen extenders on lipid peroxidation and semen quality after the freeze-thawing bull semen
The objective of this study was to evaluate effect of different concentrations of catalase in two extenders on motility, viability and lipid peroxidation bull spermatozoa during semen freezing process. Thirty ejaculates collected from ten Holstein bulls were pooled and evaluated at 37 °C. Pool ejaculated was split into two main experimental groups, 1 and 2. In experiment 1, specimen was dilute...
[ 4 ] - Influence of Added Vitamin C and Vitamin E on Frozen-Thawed Bovine Sperm Cryopreserved in Citrate and Tris-Based Extenders
The objective of this study was to evaluate quality of frozen-thawed bull semen processed with extenders containing vitamin C and E as antioxidants. Pooled semen's were collected from 5 bulls and diluted to a concentration of 30 × 106 sperm/mL with citrate –egg yolk (CEY) or Tris – egg yolk (TEY) extenders. The diluted semen was divided to 5 aliquots including control and 4 experimental groups....
