Effect of Glycosaminoglycans on Fertilizing Ability and Developmental Potential of Bovine Embryos

Effect of Glycosaminoglycans on Fertilizing Ability and Developmental Potential of Bovine Embryos

The glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) present in the female reproductive tract promote sperm capacitation. When bovine sperm were exposed to 10 μg/ml of one of four GAGs (Chondroitin sulfate, CS; Dermatan sulfate, DS; Hyaluronic acid, HA; Heparin, HP) for 5 h, the total motility (TM), straight-line velocity...
