In vitro evaluation of ram sperm frozen with glycerol, ethylene glycol or acetamide

The aim was to assess the in vitro effect of glycerol, ethylene glycol or acetamide on frozen-thawed ram spermatozoa. Aliquots of each sixteen ejaculates from four rams of the Morada Nova breed were diluted in Tris-egg yolk with glycerol (5%), ethylene glycol (3% or 5%) or acetamide (3% or 5%) and f...

Zusammenfassung:The aim was to assess the in vitro effect of glycerol, ethylene glycol or acetamide on frozen-thawed ram spermatozoa. Aliquots of each sixteen ejaculates from four rams of the Morada Nova breed were diluted in Tris-egg yolk with glycerol (5%), ethylene glycol (3% or 5%) or acetamide (3% or 5%) and frozen at −196°C. After thawing, progressive sperm motility was greater (P
