Protective effects of melatonin on bovine sperm characteristics and subsequent in vitro embryo development
21 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
SUMMARY We aimed to investigate the effect of melatonin on bovine frozen‐thawed semen and its impact on fertilization outcome. Plasma membrane integrity, mitochondrial activity, acrosome integrity, and levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured in spermatozoa treated with different concentrations of melatonin. Melatonin‐treated spermatozoa were then used for in vitro fertilization,...
