Cryopreservation of boar semen in 0.5mL straws at low spermatozoa concentration is better than high concentration to maintain sperm viability
To date, no studies have been performed evaluating the effect of boar spermatozoa concentration in 0.5mL freezing straws, leading us to examine this question. Each sperm-rich fraction of the ejaculate (n=25) was diluted at five different sperm concentrations (100, 200, 300, 600 and 800 x 106 spermat...

Zusammenfassung: | To date, no studies have been performed evaluating the effect of boar spermatozoa concentration in 0.5mL freezing straws, leading us to examine this question. Each sperm-rich fraction of the ejaculate (n=25) was diluted at five different sperm concentrations (100, 200, 300, 600 and 800 x 106 spermatozoa/mL), packaged in 0.5mL straws, and subsequently frozen. After thawing, the sperm from all of treatment groups were analyzed to determine motility characteristics using a sperm class analyzer (SCA-CASA), and their plasma and acrosomal membrane integrity, mitochondrial membrane potential, sperm membrane lipid peroxidation and fluidity were analyzed by flow cytometry. An increase in spermatozoa concentration above 300x106 spermatozoa/mL in a 0.5mL straw impaired (p0.05) by high spermatozoa concentrations at freezing. Therefore, to increase spermatozoa survival and total and progressive motility after thawing, boar spermatozoa should be frozen at concentrations up to 300x106 spermatozoa/mL.
RESUMO: Até o momento, não foram realizados estudos que avaliassem o efeito da concentração de espermatozoides/mL em palhetas (0,5mL) para a criopreservação, levando-nos a analisar esta questão. Cada fração-rica do ejaculado (n=25) foi diluída em cinco diferentes concentrações de espermatozoides (100, 200, 300, 600 e 800x106 espermatozoides/mL), envasadas em palhetas de 0,5mL e posteriormente congeladas. Após a descongelação, os espermatozoides de todos os tratamentos foram avaliados a fim de determinar as características de motilidade usando um sistema de análise computadorizada dos espermatozoides (SCA-CASA). A integridade das membranas plasmática e acrosomal, o potencial de membrana mitocondrial, a peroxidação lipídica e a fluidez da membrana foram analisadas por citometria de fluxo. O aumento na concentração de espermatozoides acima de 300x106 espermatozoides/mL diminuiu (p0,05) por altas concentrações de espermato |
