Effect of Different Levels 2, 4 Dinitrophenol and Luteolin on Semen Quality Rooster during Freezing-Thawing Process

DNA uptake in the post-acrosomal region of the spermatozoa takes place exclusively in immotile spermatozoa that are naturally unable to fertilize eggs. The present study aimed to assess whether passive transmission of non-viral vectors to the surrounding areas of chicken embryos could be an alternate mechanism in chicken sperm-mediated gene transfer. First, the presence of nucleases in rooster ...

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...

Background: Frozen-thawed rooster semen is not reliable for use in artificial insemination in commercial stocks. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) has been assessed for effectiveness as a cryoprotectant in the extender to improve the quality of frozen-thawed rooster semen. Although LDL has been evaluated in a few studies in other species for semen cryopreservation, to date, no study has been conduc...

this research was carried out to investigate the effects of various levels of dietary organic selenium supplementation (0, 0.1,  0.2 and  0.3 mg/kg) on reproductive traits of rooster. semen was collected using abdominal massage and samples were mixed together. sperm characteristics including percentage of motile, viable and abnormal sperms were assessed. this experiment was carried out based on...

The Effect of Resveratrol Antioxidant in Nano Liposome and NLC Forms Rooster Semen Extender During Storage at 4˚C

This research was carried out to investigate the effects of various levels of dietary organic selenium supplementation (0, 0.1,  0.2 and  0.3 mg/Kg) on reproductive traits of rooster. Semen was collected using abdominal massage and samples were mixed together. Sperm characteristics including percentage of motile, viable and abnormal sperms were assessed. This experiment was carried out based on...

in this research, effect of bovine serum albumin (bsa) on motility and fertility of indigenous rooster spermatozoa was evaluated using 20 and 48 indigenous roosters and hens, respectively. semen was collected and pooled. in the first experiment, the pooled semen was diluted and divided into four aliquots.the treatments were included the diluted semen without bsa and with 1% bsa; in each group, ...

Background: Exposure of sperm membranes to Reactive Oxygen Species induces lipid peroxidation causing membrane breakdown and loss of function. A rosemary extract as dietary additive was assayed for antioxidant effectiveness to improve the quality of rooster semen. Although rosemary extract has been evaluated for in vitro study of semen preservation, up to date no study has been conducted to exa...

Previous research has shown that the sperm quality index (SQI) of rooster semen is indicative of overall semen quality. The objectives of the present experiments were to determine the correlation of the SQI with semen characteristics and fertility and to determine if selection of young males for the SQI would improve fertility. In Experiment 1 semen was collected from 35 Peterson males and was ...
