摘要
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of semen collection method (artificial vagina compared to electroejaculation), season in which the semen was collected (breeding season compared to non-breeding season), freezing extender (Biladyl, Andromed and skim milk based extender) and pre-treatment procedure (washing compared to non-washing) on post-thaw semen quality in buck. Ejaculates from seven bucks of the Blanca-Celtib茅rica breed were collected by artificial vagina and electroejaculation during the breeding (July to December) and non-breeding season (January to June). Samples were split in two aliquots and one of them was washed. Three freezing extenders were evaluated on washing and non-washing sperm samples. Ejaculates collected by artificial vagina had a greater sperm quality after thawing, with greater values (P 鈮?#xA0;0.05) for SM (sperm motility), NAR (acrosome intact), YO-PRO-1鈭?PI鈭?(intact spermatozoa), and Mitotracker+/YO-PRO-1鈭?(spermatozoa with active mitochondria) and lower%DFI (DNA fragmentation index). Thawed sperm samples which were collected during the breeding season had greater values (P 鈮?#xA0;0.05) for NAR, intact spermatozoa and spermatozoa with active mitochondria, than those semen samples obtained during the non-breeding season. Semen freezing with Biladyl and Andromed resulted in a greater sperm quality (P 鈮?#xA0;0.05) after thawing in relation to milk-based extender. Washing procedure had no effect on sperm parameters assessed at thawing. Results from the present study suggest that the success of semen cryopreservation in Blanca-Celtib茅rica goat depends on semen collection method and season, as well as on the extender used. Thus, the post-thaw sperm quality will be greater (P 鈮?#xA0;0.05) when samples are collected by artificial vagina during the breeding season and when Biladyl or Andromed are used as freezing extenders.
