The objective of this experiment was to evaluate spermatological parameters and fertilizing ability of short term stored semen in different extenders from endemic Abant trout (Salmo trutta abanticus T,1954). Semen was collected from 30 adult males by the hand stripping method without anesthesia. Having determined the main spermatological properties (volume, motility, movement duration, concentr...

this study was conducted to determine chromatin integrity and dna damage by dna electrophoresis and comet assays of buffalo fresh and frozen semen. semen samples were collected from four buffalo bulls and evaluated after freezing for semen motility, viability, sperm abnormalities, chromatin integrity and dna damage. a significant variation was found in semen parameters after thawing. highly sig...

The examination of quality of the sperm ejaculate is one of the most important steps in artificial fertilization procedure. The main aim of semen storage centres is to characterise the best semen quality for fertilization. Reliable information about sperm motility is also one the most important parameters for in vitro laboratory procedures. There exist very expensive automated methods for semen...

Indonesia has two National Artificial Insemination Centers (AIC) and more than 15 Regional (RAIC) spread across several provinces. Bulls in the AIC must have a high libido produce good quality semen. This study examines correlation between with semen testosterone concentration to determine potential frozen production from Bali bulls South Sulawesi RAIC. Ten bull were used this study. Semen coll...

Semen samples were collected from 1213 fertile men whose partners had a time-to-pregnancy (TTP) ≤12 months in Guangdong Province in Southern China, and semen parameters including semen volume, sperm concentration, total counts, motility, and morphology were evaluated according to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2010 guideline. All semen parameters analyzed were normal in ~62.2% of the total...

Semen production from breeding bulls used in Artificial Insemination (AI) program is of great importance cattle breeding. Good quality semen has positive effect on the fertility cows and heifers. The aim this study was to evaluate assessed as freezing ability Red Chittagong Cattle (RCC) bull with fresh-diluted frozen semen. parameters characteristics included were volume per ejaculate (ml), per...

PURPOSE To analyze the differences of semen parameters in Korean young population for three periods from 2002 to 2013. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 516 semen samples were collected from Korean men presenting for infertility, varicoceles or other infectious problems for three periods from 2002 to 2012: January 2002-December 2003, January 2007-December 2008, and January 2012-December 2013. ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate cryodamage on human sperm motility, cryosurvival rate, and sperm chromatin assessed by acridine orange staining method (AO test) after a six-month freeze-thawing process using liquid nitrogen vapor. STUDY DESIGN Experimental study. MATERIAL AND METHOD Twenty normal semen samples were obtained from the male partner of infertile couples attending the infertility unit, Si...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate semen parameters in infertile Saudi Arabian men. METHODS In this retrospective study, semen analysis and other clinical data were extracted from medical records of men attending an infertility clinic. Patients were stratified according to smoking status and presence or absence of varicocele. RESULTS The study included 425 patients. Nonsmokers (n = 322) had significantl...

OBJECTIVE To compare the semen quality and age-specific changes in men between the 1980s and 2000s. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING Andrology laboratory, University of Calcutta, India. PATIENT(S) A semen sample was obtained from 3729 men presenting for infertility problems in two distinct decades, that is, between 1981-85 and 2000-2006.
