the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of bovine serum albomin (bsa) in stallion semen extender in cool condition. after collection, semen samples were pooled and divided into four equal parts. each part was diluted with one of the following extenders: 1) extender without bsa (bsa-0), 2) extender containing 5 mg/ml bsa (bsa-5), 3) extender containing 10 mg/ml bsa (bsa-10), and 4) exte...

the aim of this investigation was to assess the effect of different antioxidants on the motility andmembrane integrity of the ram semen during storage at 5ºc for 0, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hrs after collection anddilution. a total of 57 ejaculates from 12 bakhtiary rams was collected by artificial vagina and were extended1 : 3 with egg yolk-citrate buffer, which was containing one of the following an...

The survivability of caprine spermatozoa was compared in semen extenders prepared from the conventional egg-yolk citrate and goat-milk citrate. Motility was comparable in both sets of extenders during the first 24 hours post-extension when extended ejaculates were stored at either room temperature (28 O C) or refrigerator temperature (5 O C). Motility in goat milk citrate extenders at 5 O C was...

Background: The application of laparoscopic method for intrauterine insemination is limited in sheep industry by the high cost of equipment and low pregnancy rate of frozen-thawed spermatozoa. Both disadvantages could be decreased if chilled ram semen is transported to the farms and inseminated through cervix. Semen extender provides the requirements for sperm and affects its motility, viabilit...

The objective of this experiment was to evaluate spermatological parameters and fertilizing ability of short term stored semen in different extenders from endemic Abant trout (Salmo trutta abanticus T,1954). Semen was collected from 30 adult males by the hand stripping method without anesthesia. Having determined the main spermatological properties (volume, motility, movement duration, concentr...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the quality of raw and cooled semen in Icelandic stallions. Experiments were performed using seven stallions aged between 3 and 19 years. From each stallion, six ejaculates were collected, and semen quality was determined. Thereafter, the semen was split into eight equal parts and processed with and without centrifugation using the extenders INRA 82-...

The present work was designed to study the effect of different concentrations of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in extender on post-thaw quality of buffalo spermatozoa. Semen was collected from three buffalo bulls with artificial vagina (42°C) for three weeks (replicates). Qualifying semen ejaculate from each bull was split into five aliquots and diluted in tris-citric egg yolk extender containing ...

in this research, effect of bovine serum albumin (bsa) on motility and fertility of indigenous rooster spermatozoa was evaluated using 20 and 48 indigenous roosters and hens, respectively. semen was collected and pooled. in the first experiment, the pooled semen was diluted and divided into four aliquots.the treatments were included the diluted semen without bsa and with 1% bsa; in each group, ...
