Cryopreservation of Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus (L.) semen was investigated using three diluents, three cryoprotectants [10% dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO), 10% dimethylacetamide (DMA) or 20% glycerol] and three sizes of straw. The three diluents and three cryoprotectants were combined, resulting in nine extenders. One part semen was added to three parts extender, and motility was evaluated to assess the toxicity of six of the extenders. Semen in nine extenders was frozen in 0.5‐mL straws using liquid nitrogen vapour. Semen extended in 0.3 m glucose and each of the cryoprotectants was also frozen in 0.5‐mL, 1.7‐mL (flat) or 2.5‐mL straws. The freezing rate in each size of straw was measured. Fertility trials were conducted to determine the post‐thaw viability of the frozen semen. The motility of activated spermatozoa was higher in the DMA and DMSO extenders than in the glycerol extender. For the trial using 0.5‐mL straws, post‐thaw fertility results were higher for all extenders containing DMSO, or 0.3 m glucose and DMA, than for all other combinations of diluent and cryoprotectant. For the straw size comparison, the highest fertility was obtained for the 1.7‐mL straw using either DMSO or DMA and for the 2.5‐mL straw using DMSO. For all cryopreservation trials, fertility was low for extenders containing glycerol.  相似文献

The summer flounder, Paralichthys dentatus L., is a high‐value species and considerable research has been conducted to determine practices conducive for its culture. As milt can be limited in this species, experiments were conducted to develop a practical sperm cryopreservation protocol for hatchery use. Two dilution ratios (1:2 and 1:4; sperm:extender), 2 diluents (saline and sucrose‐based), 2 cryoprotectants (10% DMSO and 12% glycerol) and 3 freezing rates (?5, ?10 and ?15°C min?1) were evaluated using differential staining to assess post‐thaw sperm survival. Seven combinations of the factors examined reduced post‐thaw viability by less than 30%. The average viability of sperm from fresh, pooled flounder milt (67.2 ± 2.9%) was not different from that of thawed milt diluted 1:4 with sucrose diluent (10% DMSO) frozen at ?5°C min?1 (38.4 ± 7.7%) and fertilization and hatch success were not different in trials using fresh or thawed, cryopreserved sperm. From these experiments a practical sperm cryopreservation method was developed, but further refinement of the freezing protocol is necessary to optimize results.  相似文献

Experiments were carried out to develop an optimal cryopreservation protocol for tench sperm by testing the fertilizing capacity and motility parameters including progressive motility, curvilinear velocity (VCL) and linearity (LIN) of cryopreserved sperm. Three experiments were designed to this aim: first experiment where we tested the effects of two extenders (sugar‐based Grayling and ion‐based Kurokura 180) and two cryoprotectants (DMSO and methanol) on fertilization and hatching success; second where we tested the effect of cryoprotectant type (methanol or DMSO) in different concentrations (5%, 10% and 15%) on fertilization and hatching success; and third where we tested the effect of two cryoprotectants (methanol and DMSO) on sperm motility parameters (progressive motility, VCL and LIN) after 4 h post‐thaw storage (4°C). Sperm prepared with the sugar‐based Grayling extender displayed better fertilization and hatching rates independently of the applied cryoprotectant most likely due to glucose present which acted as an external cryoprotectant. Concerning cryoprotectant concentrations, the use of 10% methanol yielded the highest fertilization (85 ± 15%) and hatching (80 ± 13%) rates, which were significantly higher than in all other groups. During the post‐thaw storage time, 5% methanol, 10% methanol and 5% DMSO groups had significantly higher motility parameters than other groups and we observed no significant decline in any of the parameters during the storage time. Overall, we found that a sugar‐based extender in combination with methanol as cryoprotectant is suitable for the cryopreservation of tench sperm and allows storage of cryopreserved sperm for up to 4 h post thaw.  相似文献

Crappie, Pomoxis spp., are popular game fish throughout North America and are produced by public and private hatcheries. However, production is limited by a lack of information on tank culture and induced spawning methods. Development of techniques for storage of sperm and in vitro fertilization would increase flexibility in spawning. Therefore, techniques for sperm cryopreservation were examined in white crappie, Pomoxis annularis. Sperm from adult wild white crappie were used to evaluate sperm extender, cryoprotectant agent and concentration, and cooling technique based on post‐thaw sperm motility. Percent egg fertilization was also compared between sperm stored in the two best cryopreservation protocols and two different osmotic activator solutions. Sperm were cryopreserved using treatment combinations of two extenders (350 mOsmol/kg Hanks' balanced salt solution [HBSS] and 350 mOsmol/kg Ca2+free HBSS) and two cryoprotectants (dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO] and methanol) at concentrations of 5, 10, and 15% that were cooled at four different rates: 5, 10, 20, and 40 C/min. Post‐thaw sperm motility and fertilization rates indicated white crappie sperm can be cryopreserved using either extender, cryoprotectants of either 5% DMSO or 10% methanol, and cooling at 40 C/min. A follow‐up experiment demonstrated sperm in suspensions on ice retained viability after overnight transport.  相似文献

The Southern flounder, Paralichthys lethostigma, is a valuable aquaculture fish with established markets in the USA. All‐female production in this species is an important technology for aquaculture because the females usually have body sizes twice those of males at the same age, and sex‐reversed males (genotypic XX neomales) are used for all‐female production by crossing with genetically normal females. However, sperm volume from the neomales is usually small (<0.5 mL) and limits their application for all‐female fish production. Cryopreservation of sperm from these sex‐reversed neomales will provide access on demand with increased efficiency to extend the application of neomales. The goal of this study was to develop a protocol for cryopreservation of sperm from the Southern flounder by using an automated high‐throughput processing system. The objectives were to: (1) determine the effect of osmolality on activation of sperm motility; (2) evaluate the effect of extender solutions on sperm motility capacity; (3) evaluate the acute toxicity of cryoprotectants (dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO], propylene glycol, and polyethylene glycol) on sperm motility, and (4) estimate the effect of cooling rate on sperm cryopreservation and post‐thaw fertilization. Sperm motility was activated when osmolality was 400 mOsmol/kg or higher. Of the three extender buffers tested, HEPES4‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐1‐piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) at 300 mOsmol/kg resulted in better protection for sperm motility than did Hanks' balanced salt solution and Mounib solution at 300 mOsmol/kg during 7 d of refrigerated storage. After 30 min equilibration with the cryoprotectant of 15% DMSO, sperm motility was 24 ± 21% (fresh sperm motility without any cryoprotectants was 42%). After cooling at a rate of 20 C/min, post‐thaw sperm motility was 8 ± 5% and fertilization was 63 ± 40% evaluated at the 32–64 cell stage (5 × 105 sperm per egg). Overall, a protocol was developed for sperm cryopreservation in the Southern flounder with high‐throughput processing, which provides a tool to preserve the valuable genetic resources from neomale flounders, and enables germplasm repository development for the Southern flounder.  相似文献

The effects of extender composition and freezing rate on motility and fertility of frozen‐thawed Arctic char, Salvelinus alpinus, spermatozoa were investigated. Three freezing rates, two semen diluents and three cryoprotectants were tested. Semen frozen in 0.3 mol L?1 glucose diluent with 10% methanol as a cryoprotectant or in a diluent described by Lahnsteiner with 10%N,N‐dimethylacetamide (DMA) resulted in the highest sperm motility. Fertility was the highest for semen frozen in a glucose–methanol extender but was not significantly different than that for semen frozen in Lahnsteiner's diluent with 10% DMA. Dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) at 10% was a relatively ineffective cryoprotectant with either semen diluent. Semen frozen at 6 cm above the surface of liquid nitrogen resulted in a higher post‐thaw sperm motility and fertility than semen frozen at 5 cm. The addition of 7% fresh egg yolk to glucose diluent containing methanol or DMSO did not improve the fertility of frozen‐thawed spermatozoa. However, the addition of 7% fresh egg yolk to glucose–DMA extender significantly improved the fertilization percentages of frozen‐thawed spermatozoa. In conclusion, dilution of semen 1:3 in 0.3 mol L?1 glucose with 10% methanol and freezing 6 cm above the surface of liquid nitrogen (freezing rate of 40±8°C min?1, mean±SD from ?5 to ?55°C) is a promising protocol for cryopreservation of Arctic char semen.  相似文献

Sperm were collected in Florida from wild common snook, Centropomus undecimalis (Bloch), and were shipped to Louisiana State University for analysis and cryopreservation. Threshold activation of sperm (10% motility) occurred at 370 mOsmol kg?1, and complete activation occurred at 680 mOsmol kg?1. These values were significantly different. Sperm samples stored at 1°C in Hanks' balanced salt solution (HBSS) or in 0.6% NaCl solution at 200 mOsmol kg?1 retained motility for as long as 22 days. Mean motility remained above 50% for 9 days for sperm stored in HBSS and for 7 days for sperm stored in NaCl solution. Sperm exposed to 5% dimethyl acetamide (62±10%; mean±SD), 10% dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) (39±16%), 5% glycerol (26±5%) or 10% glycerol (6±2%) for 30 min had significantly lower motility than did unexposed sperm (89±9%). When used as a cryoprotectant, samples frozen with 5% or 10% DMSO or 5% methanol had significantly higher post‐thaw motility than did samples frozen with other cryoprotectants. Sperm cryopreserved with 10% DMSO (38±12%) had significantly higher post‐thaw motility than did sperm cryopreserved with 15% DMSO (19±10%) or 20% DMSO (4±4%). There were no significant differences in hatch rates of eggs fertilized with fresh sperm (54±29%) or cryopreserved sperm (41±35%). Survival to first feeding was not different between fish produced with fresh sperm (37±30%; range, 0–86%) or with thawed sperm (24±29%; 0–77%). Transport of sperm to a cryopreservation laboratory and back to a hatchery for thawing and use enabled collaboration between groups with specific expertise and provides a model for the application of cryopreservation by transport of fresh and frozen samples.  相似文献

The effects of three extenders (Ginzburg fish ringer, Calcium‐free Hank's balanced salt solution, C‐F HBSS and sodium chloride, 0.9% NaCl) and four cryoprotectants (dimethyl sulphoxide, DMSO; dimethyl acetamide, DMA; methanol, MeOH and glycerol) in different concentrations (5%, 10% and 15%) on the motility, viability and fertilization rates of Mekong catfish (Pagasius bocourti) sperm were investigated. Sperm samples were transferred into 250‐μL French straws and sealed with a heated haemostat. The straws were then placed in a cryochamber. A computer‐controlled rate freezer (CL 3300) and programmable Cryogenesis, version 4 were used to regulate the freezing rate. The sperm samples were frozen at a rate of 10°C min?1 from 4 to ?80°C and then evaluated after 72 h. Of the three extenders used with each cryoprotectant, C‐F HBSS had the highest fertilization rate of 75% (93% of control). This was not significantly different from the control treatment (fresh sperm) when tested with DMSO as the cryoprotectant. The lowest fertilization rate of 27% (38% of control) was resulting from the combination of 15% glycerol and C‐F HBSS. This study found that fertilization, motility and viability rates in all of the experiments had a positive significant correlation (P < 0.001).  相似文献

To develop a suitable cryopreservation diluent for spermatozoa of the endangered Sakhalin taimen Hucho perryi, all possible combinations of cryoprotectants (glycerol, dimethyl sulfoxide [DMSO], methanol) and extenders (fetal bovine serum [FBS], 300 mM glucose solution [GS], artificial seminal plasma for masu salmon) were examined by observing sperm motility 10 s after thawing. Spermatozoa cryopreserved with diluents such as mixtures of 10% glycerol plus 90% FBS, 10% DMSO plus 90% FBS, and 10% methanol plus 90% GS showed the highest motility. The maximal post-thaw motility was observed at 10% among all concentrations (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20%) of these three cryoprotectants. No significant difference among three diluents was observed in motility at 10 s. Mixtures of 10% glycerol plus 90% FBS, 10% DMSO plus 90% FBS, and 10% methanol plus 90% GS are suitable cryopreservation diluents for Sakhalin taimen spermatozoa.  相似文献

The effect of six cryoprotectants was investigated on the cryopreservation of African catfish Clarias gariepinus (Burchell) sperm. Fructose (6%) solution buffered with NaHCO3‐CO2 was used as the diluent in the experiments. Glycerol (5–11%), ethylene glycol, methanol and propylene glycol (5–15%) and, finally, dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) and dimethylacetamide (DMA) (10%) were tested using various equilibration times (2–30 min). Sperm was frozen in 250‐μL straws in a programmable freezer (Cryocell‐15, BLS, Hungary) from 3 °C to ?4 °C at 4 °C/min and from ?4 °C to ?80°C at 11 °C/min. Thawing was carried out in a 40 °C water bath for 5 s. Fertilization and hatching trials were performed only with DMSO and DMA using 200 and 100 μL of diluted sperm (100 and 50 μL of pure sperm) and the dry and the wet fertilization methods. Ethylene glycol, glycerol, methanol and propylene glycol yielded poor results. An average post‐thaw motility rate of 44.0 ± 9.7% and 22.6 ± 18.1% was achieved after 10 min equilibration using DMSO and DMA respectively. Highest average fertilization (86.8 ± 3.1%) and hatching (67.1 ± 11.9%) rates were achieved with DMA and DMSO, respectively, 200 μL of diluted sperm and the wet fertilization technique. The use of cryoprotectants increased the percentage of malformed larvae compared with the control groups. We found that DMA at a 10% concentration was equally as suitable for the cryopreservation of African catfish sperm as DMSO.  相似文献

Sperm cryopreservation is an essential tool for long‐term storage of genetic resources for aquaculture fishes. The goal of this study was to develop an efficient and streamlined protocol for high‐throughput processing for sperm cryopreservation in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar. The objectives were to evaluate: (1) osmolality of blood serum for determining extender osmolality, (2) effects of extenders for fresh sperm dilution and refrigerated storage, (3) effects of methanol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on fresh sperm motility, and (4) motility and fertility after thawing. In this study, sperm samples were collected at a hatchery site in Canada and shipped to a freezing site located 2200 miles (3550 km) away in the USA. Evaluation of three extenders indicated that Mounib solution was suitable for diluting dry sperm for sample processing. Ten percent of methanol or DMSO was less toxic to sperm cells than was 15% within 30 min. Further testing with methanol at 5, 10, and 15%, and sperm solution : extender dilutions (v:v) of 1:1, 1:3, and 1:19 (at concentrations of 5 × 107, 3 × 108, and 1 × 109 cells/mL) indicated that methanol at 5 and 10% showed less toxicity to fresh sperm within 1 h at sperm:extender dilutions of 1:1 and 1:3. Post‐thaw motility of sperm cryopreserved with 10% methanol was significantly higher than that with 10% DMSO, and fertility reflected those results (0–1% in DMSO vs. 38–55% in methanol). Further evaluation of sperm cryopreservation with 10 and 15% methanol at sperm dilution ratios of 1:1, 1:3, and 1:19 indicated that post‐thaw motility in 10% methanol was significantly higher than that in 15% methanol, and post‐thaw fertility in 10% methanol at 1:1 and 1:3 dilution ratios had fertilization rates similar to that of fresh sperm controls. Sperm samples from 12 males cryopreserved with 10% methanol showed male‐to‐male variation in post‐thaw motility (0–36%). Overall, a simplified standard protocol was established for cryopreservation of shipped sperm of Atlantic salmon using extender without egg yolk and yielded satisfactory post‐thaw motility and fertilization rates. This procedure can be readily adopted by aquaculture facilities to take advantage of high‐throughput cryopreservation capabilities at remote service centers. Most importantly, this approach lays the groundwork for an alternative commercial model for commercial‐scale production, quality control, and development of industrial standards. Control of male variability and sperm quality remain important considerations for future work.  相似文献

Decrease in the quality and quantity of Atlantic halibut, Hippoglossus hippoglossus L., semen towards the end of the reproductive season hampers production of good-quality embryos. Therefore, cryopreservation of spermatozoa is a method showing potential to facilitate controlled reproduction in Atlantic halibut. The present study aimed at establishing the appropriate cryopreservation procedure. We tested 20 extenders composed of four various diluents and five cryoprotectants (DMSO, DMA, methanol, propylene glycol, and glycerol) to determine the best extender. Then, we examined cryopreservation quality using various methods of loading and various volumes of cryopreserved samples. In most of the tested variants, sperm diluted with an extender showed high motility after 24-h incubation despite the high osmotic pressure of the extender. Modified turbot extender (MTE) was the best of the tested diluents, securing the highest post-thaw motility (P < 0.05), and DMSO, DMA, and methanol were the best cryoprotectants (P < 0.05). There was no significant effect of 15-min equilibration of semen in MTE-based extenders prior to freezing on post-thaw motility (P > 0.05). MTE-based extender was chosen as the most suitable. Semen cryopreserved in straws, Eppendorfs or Ziploc bags in volumes ranging from 0.25 to 20 ml showed similar high fertilization ability. Survival of larvae produced with the cryopreserved sperm did not differ from controls produced with freshly collected sperm. Motility 3 h after thawing was high but depended on the type of cryoprotectant and the volume of cryopreserved sperm (P < 0.05). The developed cryopreservation procedure has been applied at our Atlantic halibut breeding station for seed production.  相似文献

The present study examined the possibility of long‐term storage, by cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen, of the sperm of filefish (Thamnaconus septentrionalis). Changes in motility, survival rate, ultrastructure and fertilization rate of the sperm after freezing and thawing were tested. For selection of the immobilizing solution, artificial seawater (ASW) of 250, 350 and 450 mOsmol kg?1 were tested. Sperm motility was significantly inhibited in 350 mOsmol kg?1 ASW, and restored entirely after 100% ASW (1200 mOsmol kg?1) was added. Two cryoprotectants, dimethyl sulphoxide and glycerol, were employed. The sperm was diluted at the ratio of 1:6 with the extenders, and frozen at a freezing rate of ?40°C min?1 to ?100°C after equilibration for 10 min at room temperature, followed by plunging into liquid nitrogen. The highest post‐thawed sperm motility and survival rate were obtained with 5% glycerol. Afterwards, the effect of different freezing rates was examined using 5% glycerol as a cryoprotectant, and the rate of ?30°C min?1 to ?100°C showed the best result.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to test the effects of cryoprotectants [dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) and methylglycol], extenders (0.9% NaCl, 5% glucose, Beltsville Thawing Solution? and Merck III?), thawing temperatures (30 and 60 °C) and activating agents (0.29% NaCl and 1% NaHCO3) on the cryopreservation process of tiete tetra Brycon insignis sperm. Sperm was loaded in 0.5 mL straws, frozen in nitrogen vapour at ?170 °C and stored in liquid nitrogen. Post‐thaw sperm quality was evaluated in terms of subjective motility rate, quality motility score (0=no movement; 5=rapidly swimming spermatozoa), duration of motility and vitality (eosin–nigrosin staining). Post‐thaw sperm motility rate was greater in methylglycol (76–88%), compared with DMSO (23–59%). In general, the highest quality motility scores were observed when sperm was thawed at 30 °C and triggered in 1% NaHCO3 (3.5–4.3). Duration of motility was longer when triggered in 1% NaHCO3 (95–120 s) compared with 0.29% NaCl (69–107 s). Sperm vitality was not affected by any of the parameters tested and varied from 51% to 69% intact sperm. Brycon insignis sperm frozen in methylglycol combined with any of the extenders tested and using the methods described above yields motility above 57% and that should last long enough to fertilize oocytes.  相似文献

Three experiments were performed to develop protocols for cryopreservation of Persian sturgeon Acipenser persicus, sperm. In the first experiment, sperm from six males was individually split in three subsamples and cryopreserved using Modified Tsvetkova's extender (mT) supplemented with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), methanol (MeOH), glycerol (Gly) and ethylene glycol (EG) at concentration of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. In the second set of experiments, the effects of six equilibration times (0, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 60 min) and dilution ratios (volume sperm: volume extender 1:0.5, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:5 and 1:10) and the additive advantage of bovine serum albumin (BSA; 0, 2.5, 5 and 10 mg mL?1) and ascorbic acid (0, 2.5, 5 and 10 U mL?1), on the post‐thaw survival of sperm (triplicate set of six fish) were evaluated. Then, sperm was diluted in 1:1 mT extender with 10 mg mL?1 BSA with selected cryoprotectants (15% MeOH and 10% DMSO) for 5 min. After a month of storage in liquid nitrogen, post‐thawed sperm motility; fertilization and hatching rate and viability of derived larvae were measured (Exp.3). Evaluation of cryoprotectants efficiency showed that MeOH 15% and DMSO 10% were suitable for cryopreservation of Persian sturgeon sperm. Gly and EG resulted in very low post‐thaw motility rates even at lowest concentration. No significant difference was observed among the four different equilibration times (0, 5, 10, 20 min) (P > 0.05) although higher equilibration times than 20 min resulted low post‐thaw motility (P < 0.05). The motility of frozen–thawed sperm did not significantly change when dilution ratio was increased from 1:0.5 to 1:3 (P > 0.05). However, higher dilution ratios (1:5 and 1:10) reduced the percentage of motile sperm. Supplementation of the cryoprotectant solution with 10 mg mL?1 BSA significantly improved post‐thaw motility (P < 0.05), but ascorbic acid did not improve post‐thaw motility (P > 0.05). The results of experiment 3 showed that the highest fertilization (30.2 ± 5.75) and hatching rates (28.2 ± 5.25) were observed when samples were frozen with 15% MeOH (P > 0.05). Our study indicates that the use of mT extender consisting of 10 mg mL?1 BSA in 15% MeOH diluted with sperm at 1:1 ratio for 5 min can be recommended cryopreservation method for Persian sturgeon sperm.  相似文献

The effects of four cryoprotectants (methanol, MeOH; dimethyl sulphoxide, DMSO; dimethyl acetamide, DMA; and ethylene glycol, EG), three extenders (calcium‐free Hanks' balanced salt solution, C‐F HBSS, Hanks' balanced salt solution, HBSS and sodium chloride, NaCl) and two different freezing procedures (one‐ and two‐step) on the cryopreservation of striped catfish (Pangasius hypophthalmus (Sauvage)) sperm were investigated. Sperm were frozen using a controlled‐rate freezer in 250 μL straws and stored for 2 weeks in a liquid nitrogen (LN2) container. They were then airthawed at room temperature, and fertilization, motility and viability were assessed. The highest fertilization rate of 41% (81% of control) was achieved with the combination of 12% DMSO and 0.9% NaCl using a one‐step freezing procedure (10°C min?1). Also, DMA resulted in a higher fertilization rate (30% or 51% of the control) than MeOH (18% or 38% of the control) or EG (8% or 12% of the control). In addition, the three extenders used did not affect fertilization rates after cryopreservation with each cryoprotectant. There were no significant differences among the three cryoprotectant concentrations and between the one‐ and two‐step freezing procedures. However, fertilization rates of cryopreserved sperm were significantly lower than the controls (P<0.05). The results of this study indicate that high fertilization rates of striped catfish eggs can be achieved using cryopreserved sperm when frozen at 10°C min?1 in DMSO or DMA with either 0.9% NaCl or C‐F HBSS.  相似文献

Experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of five extenders (sucrose, glucose, fructose, KCl and a saline carp sperm extender) and two cryoprotectants (dimethyl-sulfoxide (DMSO) and methanol) on the cryopreservation of common carp sperm. Freezing of sperm using glucose extender and methanol as cryoprotectant resulted in the highest post-thaw motility, fertilization as well as hatching rates (63 ± 9%, 74 ± 15% and 67 ± 17% vs. 87 ± 5%, 84 ± 14% and 69 ± 14% using fresh sperm, respectively). In general, sugar-based extenders combined with methanol as cryoprotectant yielded higher motility, fertilization and hatching rates than ionic extenders in combination with DMSO. The jelly-like agglutination observed after thawing in samples frozen with sugar-based extenders did not reduce fertilization and hatching rates. Frozen–thawed sperm samples were able to successfully fertilize 10 g (8000) eggs.  相似文献

Abstract

Two freezing techniques (straws and pellets), three cryo-protectants (DMSO, glycerol, and DMA) in four concentrations, and several extenders were tested to determine their suitability for cryopreservation of northern pike, Esox iucius, sperm. Activity of aspar-tate aminotransferase (AspAT) and acid phosphatase (AcP) in cryo-preserved milt was determined. Fertilization ability of cryopreserved milt was affected by the freezing technique, by type and concentration of cryoprotectant, as well as by the kind of extender used. These factors also influenced AspAT and AcP activity assayed in cryopreserved sperm. Extender containing 0.6 M sucrose + 15% DMSO + 10% egg yolk was most suitable for cryopreservation of pike sperm in pellet form (90.5% of eyed eggs, as compared to control group, which was 89.1%).  相似文献

We developed both a cryopreservation method for Japanese sea cucumber spermatozoa and an artificial fertilization method using post‐thaw spermatozoa. Twenty per cent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), 16% foetal bovine serum, and 64% artificial seawater were suitable cryodiluent, and the diluent was pre‐cooled to 0°C. Semen was diluted with the solution and enclosed in a 250 μl straw, cooled to ?50°C at 10.4 ± 0.4°C/min, and immediately immersed in liquid nitrogen. Although this method showed the highest post‐thaw motility in all the conditions we examined, its post‐thaw motility was still less than approximately 15%. Artificial fertilization was carried out by adding post‐thaw semen with a cryodiluent to the oocytes. The fertilization rate of 200 oocytes/ml seawater increased with the amount of post‐thaw semen from 1 to 5 μl but showed a significant decrease at 25 μl. This decrease was considered to be due to DMSO in the cryodiluent, because the fertilization rate of the fresh semen decreased sharply when the DMSO concentration around the oocytes was 1.0% or more. Further improvement in increasing post‐thaw motility and lowering the cryoprotectant concentration is necessary for commercial‐scale artificial fertilization.  相似文献
