Semen cryopreservation: a genetic explanation for species and individual variation?

Cryo letters - 1 Jan 2000

Thurston Lisa M, Watson Paul F, Holt William V

Abstract excerpt

Although semen cryopreservation has been applied successfully in a few species, considerable variation in post-thaw semen viability exists. Independent of sperm quality before freezing, the semen of certain individuals will consistently freeze badly, resulting in poor motility, disrupted acrosome and plasma membrane, and thus reduced fertilising ability, indicating the existence of variation in membrane...
