Zusammenfassung: | The only known means of effectively separating populations of X and Y bearing sperms is the Beltsville sexing technology. The technology implies that each individual sperm is interrogated for DNA content, measuring the intensity of the fluorescence after staining the spermatozoa with Hoechst 33342. Because there are no data regarding the effect of the staining on stallion sperm, ejaculates were incubated up to 90min in presence of 0, 4.5, 9, 22.5, 31.5, 45, 54, 67.5, 76.5 and 90μM of Hoechst 33342, in two media, KMT or INRA-Tyrodes. After 40 and 90min of incubation, motility (CASA) and membrane integrity (flow cytometry after YoPro-1/Eth staining) were evaluated. In KMT extender sperm motility significantly decreased after 45min of incubation when sperm were incubated in the presence of concentrations of Hoechst of 45μM or greater (P |
