Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSeasonal Variations in Semen Quality of Pasundan Bulls in their Native Tropical EnvironmentNurul Isnaini, Tri Harsi, Anggit Damaratri Lapoliwa et al.The success of artificial insemination highly depends on the semen quality, in which it may significantly associate with the environmental factor. However, the information regarding the seasonal effects on semen quality of Pasundan bulls is still scarce. This study aimed to examine seasonal variation in semen quality of Pasundan bulls in their native environment. A total of 203 ejaculates produced … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2021 · 7,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of the Tensioactive Agent SDS on Extender’s Boar Semen Viability after ThawingMaria Helena Moreira da Silva, Loide Valadão, Fernando Moreira da SilvaEffects of the surfactant Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) on the motility and viability of boar semen after thawing were evaluated. For such purpose, semen of twelve adult boars was collected twice a week, the rich portion of this semen was separated and frozen with different concentrations of SDS (0; 2.5; 5; 10; 20 and 40 mM). For freezing the semen … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 20 Jan 2021 · 7,795 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSeasonal Variations in Semen Parameters of Zulu Rams Preserved at 10°C for 72 H During Breeding and Non-Breeding SeasonJabulani Nkululeko Ngcobo, Khathutshelo Agree Nephawe, Ayanda Maqhashu, Tshimangadzo Lucky NedambaleThe study was conducted to evaluate the seasonal variations in semen parameters of Zulu rams preserved at 10°C for 72 h. The study site was the Agricultural Research Council (ARC) Irene, during the breeding season and the non-breeding season. Zulu rams (n = 6, age = 3 years and average weight = 35 kg ±2.29) were used in this study. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2020 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOxidative Status of Boar Semen during StorageEraldo Zanella, Ricardo Zanella, Márcia Rósula Poetini et al.The intensification of the use of artificial insemination in the swine industry has increased the interest to develop proper conditions to store semen better for longer periods of time without affecting its fertility. Trolox is a vitamin E analog with antioxidant property to prevent oxidative stress. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the Trolox antioxidant capacity on … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 31 May 2016 · 7,550 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvidences for the Role of Melatonin as a Protective Additive During Buffalo Semen FreezingMohamed El-Raey, M. R. Badr, Z. M. Rawash, G. M. DarwishTill now, the exact role of melatonin in male infertility hasn’t been fully discovered. Moreover, the intracellular signaling pathways activated by melatonin in buffalo spermatozoa especially on the level of cryopreservation process haven’t been reported. The current study aimed simply to clarify the precise role of this hormone during buffalo semen cryopreservation. Semen samples were obtained randomly from 6 fertile … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2014 · 8,112 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUse of Cooled Bull Semen as a Strategy to Increase the Prenancy Rate in Fixed-Time Artificial Insemination Prgrams-Case ReportAndre Maciel Crespilho, Frederico Ozanam Papa, Marcos de Paula Santos, Manoel Francisco de Sa FilhoSemen cryopreservation is still considered suboptimal due to lower fertility when compared to fresh semen. The reasons for the loss of fertility are various and related to irreversible damage caused to the cells during the freeze-thaw process. An alternative to conventional cryopreservation represents the use of chilled bull semen, preventing the damage associated with freezing, thereby guaranteeing greater sperm viability. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 2 Feb 2013 · 8,681 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRelation of Serum and Semen Malondialdehyde and Total Anti-Oxidants with Sperm Parameters in Infertile MenFirozeh Akbari-Asbagh, Ebrahim Mostafavi, Kobra Hamdi et al.Problem statement: Oxidative Stress (OS) has been recognized as one of the most important cause of male infertility. We studied the relation of serum and Semen Malondialdehyde (MDA) and Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) with sperm parameters in infertile men with sperm count within the normal range. Approach: The prospective case- control study performed on infertile men presenting to the infertility … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 13 Sep 2010 · 14,527 accessesView PDFCite
