چکیده انگلیسی
Semen collected from 10 saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) was used to investigate sperm in vitro manipulation and preservation. Preliminary studies revealed that phosphate buffered saline (PBS) without Ca2 +, Mg2 + and egg yolk (EY) was a suitable extender for studies of sperm physiology. Spermatozoa diluted in PBS showed no change in survival [% motility (M), rate of sperm movement (R) and % plasma membrane integrity (PI)] when diluted over a range of 1:1 to 1:16. Except for a small decline in PI, there was no change in sperm survival when semen diluted without EY was cooled rapidly to and rewarmed from 0 °C. The addition of EY (0, 5, 10 and 20% v/v) had no beneficial effect on sperm survival when incubated in PBS for 1 h at 30 °C or after 24 h storage at 4 °C. Whilst crocodile spermatozoa exposed to a range of anisotonic media and then returned to solutions of 390 mosM kgâ 1 retained their M from 220 to 390 mosM kgâ 1, PI remained high in hypotonic media (25-280 mosM kg â1); spermatozoa showed an increase (P < 0.05) in the incidence of flagellar coiling (FC) with increasing hypotonic conditions. The adverse effect of anisotonic conditions on sperm M and FC recovered somewhat when sperm were returned to the 390 mosM kg â1 media, but not to pre-treatment levels. Exposure of crocodile spermatozoa to respective concentrations of 0.68 M, 1.35 M and 2.7 M glycerol, dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO), and dimethylacetamide (DMA) after 2 h storage at 4 °C (equilibration) resulted in a reduction in M, but no change in PI. Sperm cryopreserved in the same cryoprotectant media within 0.25 mL straws at â 6 °C/min in a programmable freezer and thawed at 37 °C for 1 min showed a major decline (P < 0.05) of M but there was moderate protection of PI (DMA 2.7 M - 17.7 ± 4.4; DMSO 2.7 M - 22.7 ± 1.4 and glycerol 2.7 M - 25.7 ± 6.4). Sperm thawed and immediately washed to remove the cryoprotectant showed an improvement (P < 0.05) in PI but not M. Future studies of crocodile sperm preservation should explore the apparent disjunction between low levels of M and the high tolerance of the plasma membrane to anisotonic conditions and cryoprotectant toxicity.
