In teleostei, as opposed to what happens in mammals, most of the studies that evaluate the quality storages of semen are oriented toward the exposure of spermatozoa to some reactive oxygen species (ROS), the utilization of antioxidants in the diet, or the incorporation of these in seminal plasma....
In fish feeding studies, stomach related parameters are mainly measured in order to have biometric relationships. To determine those parameters a direct and straightforward method for measuring real maximum stomach volume in fish based on Archimedes' principle was tested and compared against a tr...

The present investigation determined how different antioxidants incorporated into the sperm diluent for cold storage of semen affected sperm motility and spermatozoan fertility capabilities of the rainbow trout. For the evaluations, fresh semen (C) and semen that had been stored without diluents ...

Use of antioxidants on rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum, 1792) sperm diluent: effects on motility and fertilizing capability
The quality of fish gametes, both male and female, are determined by several factors (age, management, feeding, chemical and physical factors, water quality, etc.)that have an impact on the survivability of embryos, larvae and/or fry in the short or long term. One of the most important factors is...
In this article we describe basic aspects of the sperm biology of Merluccius australis, in particular assessing the effects of pH (6, 8 and 10), temperature (4, 10 and 15 degrees C) and osmolality (922 mOsm/kg, 822 mOsm/kg, 681 mOsm/kg and 3 mOsm/kg) on sperm motility. Our results indicate the pr...

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 ...
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of freezing on the function in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar spermatozoa. The semen was frozen in Cortland's medium+1.3M dimethyl sulphoxide+0.3M glucose+2% bovine serum albumin (final concentration) in a ratio of 1:3 (semen:cryoprotectant) as...

The knowledge of sperm quality in the broodstock males of different ages is a prerequisite to identify the reproductive ability of cultivated fish for the hatchery management. Thus, in this work, we analysed sperm function of the semen stored of broodstock males of rainbow trout (Oncorhychus myki...

The current trend in world aquaculture is towards the diversification of cultures, mainly native species. The red cusk eel Genypterus chilensis is a native Chilean species of high gastronomic demand and seasonal exploitation that is projected as a candidate for the development of farming technolo...

In vitro storage of salmonid eggs leads to aging of the cells causing a decline in quality and reducing their capacity to develop and produce embryos. The quality of salmonid embryos is assessed by morphologic analyses; however, data on the application of biomarkers to determine the cell viabilit...
