BACKGROUND: Sulfated polysaccharides from the skin of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), added to the tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) semen diluting medium, can be potential antioxidants and promote the maintenance of sperm quality.
BACKGROUND: Heat shock protein is considered as a potential indicator of animal adaptation to harsh environmental stresses and its expression has been correlated with resistance to stress.
The reduction in population genetic diversity due to inbreeding depression and the negative impact of human activity on habitats ultimately generates an extinction debt. Therefore, there is always a dire need to save wild population and to protect bi...
BACKGROUND: Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) have emerged as a promising modality for cellular therapy. However, techniques of ADSC cryopreservation, which can facilitate their clinical application, haven't been established yet.
BACKGROUND: The cryopreservation process induces osmotic stress, membrane changes and production of reactive oxygen species resulting in damage to the spermatozoa. Together, the presence of oxygen in the extender aggravates the oxidative stress that ...
Artificial insemination (AI) with frozen or cooled-stored semen plays a key role in the widespread distribution of germplasm of elite livestock resources and the protection of endangered species. Cryopreservation provides long-term preservation of sp...
BACKGROUND: Superoxide dismutase (SOD) as an antioxidant in semen extender may be used for the cryopreservation of buffalo spermatozoa and in vivo fertility.
BACKGROUND: Alpha-tocopheryl succinate, a major chain-splitting antioxidant, is the most effective form of vitamin E and may be used in the semen extender for cryopreservation of buffalo spermatozoa.

Embryo selection within in vitro fertilization (IVF) is the process of evaluating qualities of fertilized oocytes (embryos) and selecting the best embryo(s) available within a patient cohort for subsequent transfer or cryopreservation. In recent year...
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the performance of an annotation-free embryo scoring system on the basis of deep learning for pregnancy prediction after single vitrified blastocyst transfer (SVBT) compared with the performance of other blastocyst grading syste...
