The Effect Of Ascorbic Acid On The Freezability Of Ram Semen Diluted With Extenders Containing Different Proportions Of Glycerol, Mustafa Sönmez, Eşref Demi̇rci̇
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of ascorbic acid on the freezability and spermatological characteristics of ram semen diluted with Tris-glucose-egg yolk based extenders containing different proportions of glycerol. Six Akkaraman rams were used. Semen was collected by electroejaculator once every 3 days. The spermatological characteristics of the collected semen samples were determined. Pooled and diluted semen was cooled slowly to + 4 ºC over 2 h. Cooled semen was divided into 20 groups. Each of the 20 semen groups was diluted at a 1:1 ratio with one of the extender groups containing different proportions of glycerol (0%, …
In Vitro Effects Of Linamarin, Amygdalin And Gossypol Acetic Acid On Hyaluronidase Activity, Sperm Motility And Morphological Abnormality In Bull Sperm, Sadetti̇n Tanyildizi, Tanzer Bozkurt
In Vitro Effects Of Linamarin, Amygdalin And Gossypol Acetic Acid On Hyaluronidase Activity, Sperm Motility And Morphological Abnormality In Bull Sperm, Sadetti̇n Tanyildizi, Tanzer Bozkurt
Turkish Journal of Veterinary & Animal Sciences
In vitro effects of various doses of linamarin, amygdalin and gossypol acetic acid on sperm hyaluronidase activity and the percentages of motile spermatozoa and morphology were investigated in bull sperm. Holstein bulls (n = 12) aged between 2 and 3 were used in the study. Semen samples were collected from each animal 3 times and used for incubation. The samples were divided into 5 equal parts and mixed (v/v) with linamarin at doses of 0.5, 0.75, 1 and 2 µM, with amygdalin at doses of 0.4, 0.8, 1 and 2 µM and with gossypol acetic acid at doses of 2.5, …

The effects of different extenders and cryoprotectants on the viability and fertilizing ability of frozen spermatozoa from the mirror carp, Cyprinus carpio L. (1758), were investigated. Semen was collected from anesthesized males by the abdominal massage method. Having determined the main spermatological properties (volume, motility, duration of motility, total spermatozoa number, concentration and pH), the pooled ejaculates were diluted with 3 extenders containing different cryoprotectants (15% DMSO, 15% DMA, 15% Glycerol) individually. One part semen was added to 3 parts extender. The diluted semen was packaged in 0.5 ml straws and left to equilibrate for 45 min at 4 °C. …
