Mitochondria Content and Activity Are Crucial Parameters for Bull Sperm Quality Evaluation

Mitochondria Content and Activity Are Crucial Parameters for Bull Sperm Quality Evaluation

Standard sperm evaluation parameters do not enable predicting their ability to survive cryopreservation. Mitochondria are highly prone to suffer injuries during freezing, and any abnormalities in their morphology or function are reflected by a decline of sperm quality. Our work focused on describing...
