In vitro methods of assessing the viability of rainbow trout spermatozoa

The accuracy of three in vitro methods for estimating the proportion of dead rainbow trout ( Onchorhynchus mykiss ) spermatozoa was investigated. Motility rating, fluorometry using ethidium bromide, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in seminal plasma were compared. Semen samples were prepared...

Zusammenfassung:The accuracy of three in vitro methods for estimating the proportion of dead rainbow trout ( Onchorhynchus mykiss ) spermatozoa was investigated. Motility rating, fluorometry using ethidium bromide, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in seminal plasma were compared. Semen samples were prepared to contain 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% killed spermatozoa. All three methods demonstrated highly significant relationships (P
