ABSTRACT: A statistical approach using sequentially principal component analysis (PCA), clustering, and discriminant analyses was developed to identify sperm morphometric subpopulations in well‐defined portions of the fresh boar ejaculate. Semen obtained as 2 (the first 10 mL sperm‐rich fraction rest ejaculate, respectively) frozen a conventional protocol. Before freezing, an aliquot used for computer‐assisted morphometry (ASMA). Postthaw quality evaluated (CASA), annexin‐V/PI assay...
Artificial insemination is not as widely used in horses other domestic species, such dairy cattle and pigs, partly because of the wide variation sperm quality between stallion ejaculates due to decreased fertility following use cooled transported spermatozoa. Furthermore, predictive tests for fertilising ability are lacking. The objective present study was assess morphology chromatin integrity obtained from 11 warmblood breeding stallions Sweden, evaluate relationship these parameters...
Early-life chemical exposure may influence immune system development, subsequently affecting child health. We investigated immunomodulatory potentials of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and p,p'-DDE in infants. Prenatal to PCBs was estimated from maternal serum concentrations during pregnancy. Postnatal calculated the compounds mother's milk, total number nursing days, percentage full each week 3 month period. Number types infections among infants were registered by mothers (N = 190). White...
Contents Pyometra is a disease in dogs caused by bacterial infection of the uterus and resulting SIRS (systemic inflammatory response syndrome) nearly 6 10 cases. Clinical diagnostic criteria for are relatively unspecific, biomarkers diagnosis pyometra needed. Serum samples from 32 were used this study grouped into with , without healthy controls. The serum concentrations IFN ‐γ, IL ‐4, ‐6, ‐7, ‐8, ‐10, ‐15, ‐18 TNF ‐α measured using multiplex analyses. CRP ( C ‐reactive protein) determined...
There is speculation that beef bull semen quality inferior to of dairy bulls although few scientific studies are available in the literature. The aim this study was evaluate sperm and determine which parameters could be indicative fertility after insemination. Sperm quality, assessed by computer assisted motility analysis flow cytometric evaluation membrane integrity, levels reactive oxygen species, mitochondrial potential, acrosome status DNA fragmentation index, evaluated semen.For bulls,...
The relationship between the so‐called natural interferon‐α (IFN‐α) producing cell (IPC), stimulated to produce IFN‐α by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV), and of dendritic cells (DC) in peripheral blood leucocytes was investigated. simultaneous expression surface antigens intracellular HSV‐stimulated IPC (HSV‐IPC) examined flow cytometry (FCM). HSV‐IPC were infrequent, <0.3% mononuclear leucocytes, with homogeneous light scatter characteristics. confirmed lack leucocyte lineage specific...
Previous studies have shown sperm quality after cryopreservation differs depending on the fraction of seminal plasma boar spermatozoa are contained in. Thus, in first 10 ml sperm-rich (portion I) withstand handling procedures (extension, and freezing/thawing) better than those latter part a fractionated ejaculate (second portion post-spermatic fraction; II). The present study evaluated whether an exogenous antioxidant, water-soluble vitamin E analogue Trolox...
Summary Detection of early changes in the sperm plasma membrane during cryopreservation is utmost importance when designing freezing protocols and has previously been studied pig species using annexin‐V detection phosphatidylserine translocation. In present study we designed a new assay to detect these boar spermatozoa, based on slight increase permeability occurring stages cryoinjury, combination three fluorescent probes, SNARF‐1, YO‐PRO‐1 ethidium homodimer. Four ejaculates from five...
