The Sperm-Class Analyzer detected four subpopulations of spermatozoa with different motility characteristics in the ejaculate of the Catalonian donkey. Significant differences (P < 0.001) in the distribution of these subpopulations, as well as in total sperm number and percentage total motility, were seen in the diluted semen of four sampled donkeys. All the ejaculates evaluated showed excellen...

Sperm motility stimulation is a pharmacological treatment used to improve sperm motility and treatment outcome in frozen-thawed epididymal and testicular spermatozoa. Sperm motility is a critical factor in male fertility. Low motility can be caused by a variety factors including abnormal spermatogenesis, oxidative damage, or depletion of intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP; molecule that ...

in order to determine calcium (ca), magnesium (mg) content and total antioxidant capacity (tac) of seminal plasma in buffalo and to study their associations with the semen characteristics, 54 semen samples were collected from 10 buffalo bulls; semen quality was evaluated, seminal plasma was then harvested by centrifugation and its ca and mg content were estimated and its tac determined. the ca ...

Aim: The study was undertaken to quantify and to analyze the changes in the motion characteristics of bull spermatozoa during various stages of cryopreservation cycle. Materials and Methods: Using computer assisted semen analysis (CASA) technique, 26 ejaculates, collected from two Jersey bulls were analyzed for motility, head behaviour and swimming pattern of spermatozoa on dilution, pre-freeze...

Background: The recovery of sperm from the cauda epididymis may be the last chance to conserve, genetic Materials of valuable farm animals. Sperm utilize glucose as source of energy through glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation to provide motility and movement. While endogenous glucose of the culture media has little potential to preserve sperm motility and viability for long period of time ...
