Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffect 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. Semen samples were diluted with egg yolk citrate extender. Cooled semen samples were loaded into straws and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2021 · 6,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase 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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Influence of Garcinia kola Seed on Sexual Behavior and Testis Physiology in Wistar RatsJonah Sydney Aprioku, Victor Nwachukwu, Blessing Ukamaka Okeke et al.Garcina kola seed is believed by some to enhance male sexual performance but existing scientific data show divergent results. In this study, the sexual and reproductive influence of ethanol (70%) seed extract of G. kola was evaluated in Wistar rats. Adult male rats were gavaged with 0, 50, 100, 200 or 300 mg kg-1 day-1 of extract for 30 days … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2018 · 13,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Boar Epididymal Sperm Preservation: Comparative Analysis of Slicing Float-Up vs. Flushing and BTS vs. Andromed® Extenders on Sperm Motility and Morphometry TraitsMamonene Angelinah Thema, Ntuthuko Raphael Mkhize, Gerhard van der Horst et al.Epididymal sperm collection represents a valuable strategy for preserving genetics from deceased or castrated boars of superior breeding value. The two primary collection methods-slicing float-up (high sperm yield) and flushing (low blood contamination risk)-differ in sperm recovery efficiency, while semen extenders provide cryoprotective nutrients that protect against cold shock during preservation. This study compared the effects of slicing float-up versus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 14 Mar 2026 · 1,794 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimalization of the Swim-Up Method for Bali Bull Sperm: Effect of Incubation Time and Medium on Sperm KineticsAthhar Manabi Diansyah, Muhammad Yusuf, Rahmat et al.Bali bulls (Bos javanicus) are an essential part of Indonesia’s indigenous livestock, prized for their ability to thrive in challenging environments, their natural disease resistance, and their strong reproductive capabilities. The aim of this study was to refine the swim-up technique for preparing Bali cattle sperm. We evaluated the effects of two commonly used media Tyrode's Albumin Lactate Pyruvate (TALP) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 9 Feb 2026 · 1,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving the Technology for Assessing the Semen of Beige Karakul SheepAigerim Turekyzy Bigarayeva, Nuradin Alibayev, Arkadiy Kanurovich Natyrov et al.The article presents the research results on the effective use of seed products from breeding rams in reproduction for the conservation and targeted propagation of genetic resources of Karakul sheep of rare beige color, which are on the verge of extinction. Selected freshly obtained ejaculates from 6 beige rams of the Karakul breed in the amount of 32 samples, meeting … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 17 Feb 2025 · 4,501 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 abstractAssessment of the Influence of Dust-Salt Aerosols of the Aral Sea on the Morphological Characteristics of the Tissue of the Epididymis of Rats in the ExperimentAssylgul Suleimen, Bibigul Rakhimova et al.Drying of the Aral Sea is a very significant environmental problem of modern times. Dust particles from the dried seabed are spread over long distances and negatively impact the quality of life of residents in nearby areas. One of the significant problems is the decrease in the fertility of residents of the Aral region, but there is insufficient data about … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 24 Jul 2024 · 4,809 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
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.
