Cryopreservation is the most efficient method for long-term preservation of mammalian
sperm. However, freeze-thawing procedures may strongly impair the sperm function and …

Spermatozoa are physiologically exposed to reactive oxygen species (ROS) that play a
pivotal role on several sperm functions through activation of different intracellular …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and membrane lipid peroxidation have been
recognized as problems for sperm survival and fertility. The precise roles and detection of …

The use of frozen semen in the swine industry is limited by problems with viability and fertility
compared with liquid semen. Part of the reduction in sperm motility and fertility associated …

Artificial insemination with frozen‐thawed semen in pigs is not a routine technique; its use is
restricted to specific cases, such as preservation of valuable genetic material (germplasm …

Contents While sperm cryopreservation is the best technology to store boar semen for long‐
term periods, only 1% of all artificial inseminations (AI) conducted worldwide are made using …

Reactive oxygen species generated during the freeze–thawing process may reduce sperm
quality. This study evaluates the effects of melatonin supplementation as an antioxidant in …

In the present study the potential benefit of reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐scavenging
enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) when cryopreserving boar …

Boar semen is extremely vulnerable to cold shock and sensitive to peroxidative damage due
to high content of unsaturated fatty acids in the phospholipids of the plasma membrane and …

Anti-oxidants partially ameliorated the detrimental effects of reactive oxidative substances
produced during cryopreservation. The objective of the study was to determine the effect of …
