The aims were to evaluate the suitability of a non-commercial TRIS-lecithin (LC) extender and the effect of different concentrations of catalase (CAT) on motility, capacitation status (Chlortetracycline-assay) and zona pellucida (ZP) binding capacity of canine spermatozoa stored at +5 degrees C for 4 days. The sperm-rich fractions of the ejaculates of four stud dogs were divided into four aliqu...

STUDY DESIGN  Systematic review. Study rationale and context:  Bone graft from the iliac crest has been the gold standard in posterolateral spinal fusion procedures, but is associated with chronic pain at the harvest site. Bone graft harvested locally from the spine and combined with extenders may decrease the morbidity associated with iliac graft harvest, but questions remain on the success of...

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of different extenders and storage periods on motility and fertilizing ability of short-term stored grass carp sperm during spawning season. Sperm was collected from anesthesized males by the abdominal massage method. Having determined the main spermatological properties, the pooled ejaculates were diluted with 3 different extenders at a ra...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the addition of antioxidants (vitamin E, β- mercaptoethanol and their combination) to semen extender.  Progressive motility, viability and pH of fresh ram semen were examined. Ejaculate samples were collected with artificial vagina from three Ghezel-Merinose rams (3 years old) during non- breeding reproduction season. Semen was diluted with a...

 Study Design: Randomized Block Design.
 Place and Duration Study: Sample: Galang, Deli Serdang Regency, Indonesia, between December 2022 January 2023.
 Methodology: The research procedure starts with preparation extender, collection ...

We investigate the circumstances under which there exist a singular cardinal μ and a short (κ, μ)-extender E witnessing “κ is μ-strong”, such that μ is singular in Ult(V,E).

The objective of this study was to test the use of a commercial extender (Triladyl) as a diluent in caprine semen refrigerated at 15 ̊C, using caffeine (CF), heparin (HP), synthetic oviductal fluid (SOF) andtriladyl (TRY) as capacitating chemical agents at different times. Twenty ejaculates of caprine semen were collected using an artificial vagina. The ejaculates were diluted and refrigerated b...

The aim of the experiment was to determine the effect of potential antioxidants (adenosine, L-cysteine hydrochloride, ascorbic acid, magnesium fumarate and prolactin) supplementing the Biosolwens extender on semen survival time and sperm chromatin structure. The semen motility was examined every day and the susceptibility of sperm chromatin to denaturation was evaluated on collection day and da...

Mammalian spermatozoa are extremely susceptible to high doses of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential role of glutamine in protecting rabbit spermatozoa against ROS stress during cryopreservation and post-thaw incubation. Freshly ejaculated semen was diluted with Tris-citrate-glucose extender supplemented with glutamine. The addition of 20...

The aim of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of the intrauterine insemination (IUI) in swine, considering the conception rate, farrowing rate, litter size (alive born pigs). For the IUI, the females had been insemination at 24 and 48 hours after the estrus detection, and the inseminating doses of 500 million, 1 billion, 1.5 billion and 2 billion spermatozoa in 20 mL extender had been use...
