Effect of pH, osmolality and temperature on sperm motility of pink cusk-eel (Genypterus blacodes, (Forster, 1801))
Sperm cryopreservation is an important tool for reproductive management; however, it has not been possible to perform this procedure for coho salmon. This study was designed to assess the effect of cryopreservation on sperm functional parameters, oxidative stress markers and fertilizing capacity ...
Storage of refrigerated semen is a simple and inexpensive procedure that can facilitate the management and reproduction programmes in aquaculture and allows to store semen for in vitro reproduction, quality analyses, hatchery production support, selective in vitro breeding, disease diagnosis, tra...

Effects of short-term storage on sperm function in fish semen: a review
Patagonian blenny (E. maclovinus) is a marine species recently placed in captivity and which are potentially farmable. Understanding and improving its sperm capacity to withstand short-term storage conditions is a key element of initiating an artificial propagation program for this species. The a...

The development of semen cryopreservation strategies is necessary to improve the semen storage technologies of species of great commercial interest for aquaculture. Recent studies demonstrate that lipids play an important role in the fertility and cryotolerance of fish gametes. This study investi...
In this study, the morphology and ultrastructure of Eleginops maclovinus spermatozoa were characterized through scanning and electron microscopy. Findings revealed that E. maclovinus spermatozoa can be differentiated into three major parts: a spherical head without acrosome (typical for externall...

Calcium is a prerequisite factor for triggering the sperm activation in salmonids. The aim of this study was to test different concentrations of Ca(2+)on sperm motility activation and fertility of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Semen samples activated with calcium free activator (0.0 mM) an...
