THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT TEMPERATURE AND MEDIUM ON TURKEY SPERMATOZOA MOTILITY IN VITRO

Target of this study was to analyze the effect of different diluents (saline solution, commercial diluent and yolk diluent) on the functional parameters of turkey spermatozoa after a culture in vitro at 5 °C and 20 °C. Samples were subjected to repeated measurements at intervals of 0, 30, 60, 90, 12...

Description
Summary:Target of this study was to analyze the effect of different diluents (saline solution, commercial diluent and yolk diluent) on the functional parameters of turkey spermatozoa after a culture in vitro at 5 °C and 20 °C. Samples were subjected to repeated measurements at intervals of 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 300 minutes. Significantly the highest motility was found in the samples with yolk diluent at 5 °C and at 20 °C. Lower values were measured in samples diluted with saline solution and commercial diluent. Progressive motility copied the finding results of the overall motility with the exception of yolk diluent, which were reported significantly lower values.
