EFFECT OF TREHALOSE, CYSTEINE AND HYPOTAURINE ON BUFFALO BULL SPERM FREEZABILITY, ULTRASTRUCTURE CHANGES AND FERTILIZING POTENTIALS [PDF]
Cryopreservation induces sublethal damage to the spermatozoa, which leads to reduce their fertile life. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of trehalose, cysteine and hypotaurine on freezability, ultrastructure and in vitro ...

Epigenetic Changes in Equine Embryos after Short-Term Storage at Different Temperatures
In embryos subjected to assisted reproductive techniques, epigenetic modifications may occur that can influence embryonic development and the establishment of pregnancy. In horses, the storage temperature during transport of fresh embryos before transfer

CRYOPRESERVATION OF BUFFALO SPERMATOZOA IN SOY LECITHIN-BASED EXTENDERS [PDF]
Semen extenders containing egg yolk as a cryoprotectant may pose hygienic risks and are difficult to standardize. Although a new generation of semen extenders free of animal ingredients is available, egg yolk-containing extenders are still widely used ...
