Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSemen Quality and Artificial Insemination Efficacy Using Sericin-Silica-Phosphate-CuO Hydrogel in Thin-tailed SheepEnike Dwi Kusumawati, I Wayan Karyasa, Duran Corebima Aloysius et al.Artificial Insemination (AI) in livestock is increasingly demanded because it greatly affects the productivity and quality of livestock. AI should be supported by advanced material chemistry, especially organic-inorganic hybrid biomaterials. We aimed to produce a prototype of renewable advanced biomaterial technology in the form of Sericin-Silica-Phosphate (SER-SI-PO) hydrogel reinforced with Copper Nanoparticles (CuNPs) and its application in AI. The testing … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 10 Jun 2025 · 3,851 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsOzone Therapy: Overview of its Potential Utility in Male ReproductionZaher Merhi, Ali Bazzi, Rajean Moseley-LaRue et al.Ozone (O3), a highly water-soluble inorganic molecule, is a gas made of three atoms of oxygen (O) with a cyclic structure. Ozone can be produced by medical generators from pure oxygen after passing through a high voltage gradient. Ozone therapy (OT) can be given in medical practice via several routes that include transdermal, intramuscular, rectal, nasal, oral, vaginal, intravenous, intra-arterial, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2019 · 9,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThrombophilic Genes Mutations in Women with Repeated In-Vitro Fertilization FailureNaglaa Fathy Al Husseini, Ahmad Y. Rezk, Mosad M. Odah et al.Problem statement: Thrombophilia has been recently implicated in early pregnancy loss and IVF implantation failure, by impairing the initial vascularization process occurring at implantation, which is necessary for a successful pregnancy. Approach: The aim of this study is to assess the presence possibility of mutation in thrombophilic genes [Factor V (FV) gene, Prothrombin (PT) gene and Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) gene] … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2011 · 7,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Kinematics Semen Tolerance to Oxidative StressCyril Mpho PilaneInterpretation of semen kinematic parameters remain as a point of discussion in predicting semen quality following processes like cryopreservation. During cryopreservation, oxidative stress remains a challenge in promoting post-thaw semen quality. Comparison of livestock semen exposed to oxidative stress, in vitro, highlight various aspects of sperm cell movement, like kinematics, to predict their qualities. Sperm cell kinematics includes the measurement … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 13 Sep 2024 · 4,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSupplementation with Different Concentrations of Dithiothreitol and Glutathione During Cryopreservation of Semen from Large White BoarsMahlatsana Ramaesela Ledwaba, Masindi Lottus Mphaphathi et al.The study aims to compare different concentrations (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 mM) of antioxidants, Dithiothreitol (DTT) and Glutathione (GSH), on sperm parameters following the freeze-thawing of semen from large white boars. Three large white boars were selected for semen collection and the collected semen was sent to the lab for analysis. Following dilution with Beltsville thawing solution and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 3 Jun 2024 · 5,517 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenomic Regions and Candidate Genes Associated With Semen Traits in Rams: A Systematic GWAS Review With Implications for South African Sheep BreedsNhlakanipho Sam Zulu, Khoboso Christine LehloenyaRam fertility is a key determinant of reproductive efficiency in sheep production systems, particularly under extensive and semi-extensive conditions prevalent in South Africa. Semen quality traits, including ejaculate volume, sperm concentration, motility, and cryotolerance, exhibit measurable genetic variation and are increasingly investigated using genomic approaches. This systematic review synthesizes evidence from three eligible Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) analyses that have … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 26 Oct 2026 · 50 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrozen Semen Quality of Kolbroek Boars Concerning Glutathione ConcentrationsLerato Deirdre Sehlabela, Masindi Lottus Mphaphathi et al.Glutathione (GSH) is an antioxidant that is being studied for its ability to improvecellular responses to semen preservation challenges. The research goal aimed toevaluate the impact of introducing different glutathioneconcentrations to boar semen freezing extender (0, 1, 5, and 10 mM) onthe Kolbroek boar sperm's quality after being frozen and thawed. For 2 h, thecollected sperm-rich fraction was chilled at … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2023 · 6,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Japanese Quail Egg-Yolk Extender in Cryopreservation of Cockerel SemenRantloko Rolly Maapola, Khathutshelo Agree Nephawe, Tshimangadzo Lucky Nedambale et al.The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of quail egg yolk extenders in the cryopreservation of cockerel semen. Ten Venda cockerels were chosen randomly and semen was collected twice a week with a two-day rest period using an abdominal massage technique. Immediately following semen collection, semen samples were evaluated for microscopic parameters (sperm cell motility, viability, morphology, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2023 · 5,638 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Semen on the Embryo Productivity of Donor Cows and the Development of Transplant CalvesBolatbek Ateikhan, Toktar Karibaevich Bexeitov, Talgat Kozybakovich Seiteuov et al.In animal husbandry, more heifers are requiredfor the expanded reproduction of the herd or milk, and more bulls are needed toobtain meat. One of the effective ways to artificially regulate the secondary(at birth) sex ratio is the technology of sexed semen. In this connection, thepurpose of this study was to study the effect of sexed and native semen on theembryonic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2022 · 5,430 accessesView PDFCite
