The objective of this study was to compare the effects of dimethylformamide (DMF) and glycerol in canine (Canis lupus familiaris) semen cryopreservation based on postthaw motility and velocity evaluated by computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA) and the effects on subjective progressive motility, percentage of live sperm, and plasma membrane functional integrity. The semen was diluted in two steps with an egg-yolk Tris extender containing 6% glycerol or DMF, frozen in 0.25-mL straws, and stored in liquid nitrogen. Immediately after thawing, samples were accessed for subjective sperm motility, sperm membrane functional integrity, percentage of live sperm, and evaluation by CASA. There were differences (P < 0.05) between glycerol and DMF with regard to subjective progressive motility (43.1% vs. 21.5%), objective progressive motility (11.8% vs. 6.2%), velocity average pathway (31.1 vs. 23.1 μm/sec), and amplitude of lateral head (3.3 vs. 3.9 μm), which confirmed the efficiency of glycerol. In conclusion, objective analysis performed by CASA confirmed that no benefits were derived by using DMF to replace glycerol for cryopreservation of canine semen.
