Background Cryopreservation procedure for poultry semen is not reliable due to structural and biochemical damages which can lead to reduction in sperm quality and fertility. Development of cryopreservation medium has crucial effects for successful recovery of sperm after freezing. The objective of this study was assessment of cryopreservation of rooster semen using hand-made cryopreservation me...

An evaluation of the colligative properties of the blood is of paramount theoretical importance, for such properties enter as fundamental factors in all physicochemical considerations based either on the kinetic theory or on thermodynamics. Despite this importance, no direct measurements of the colligative properties of blood have been made at body temperature. 1 Our knowledge of these function...
