Scimitar-Horned Oryx (Oryx dammah) Spermatozoa Are Functionally Competent in a Heterologous Bovine In Vitro Fertilization System after Cryopreservation on Dry Ice, in a Dry Shipper, or over Liquid Nitrogen Vapor1
1 Feb 1999
Abstract excerpt
A heterologous bovine in vitro fertilization (IVF) system was used to study the functional competence of scimitar-horned oryx spermatozoa after cryopreservation. Four sperm-freezing methods were compared after dilution of ejaculates from six oryx with an equine semen extender: 1) dry ice, 2) dry shipper one-step, 3) dry shipper two-step, and 4) liquid nitrogen vapor. Post-thaw sperm motility, longevity, and...
