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 PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Repeated Freezing and Thawing on Nguni Sperm Parameters Evaluated by Computer Assisted Sperm Analyzer SystemMasindi Lottus Mphaphathi, Tshimangadzo Lucky NedambaleThe aims of the current study were to assess the effect of double freezing and thawing on Nguni semen parameters. Semen was collected from Nguni bulls. The Sperm Class Analyzer® system was used to evaluate sperm motility rates prior and post freezing, repeatedly.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect 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 PDF Cite
