Abstract

Objective. Evaluate the effect of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) concentration on the freezability of goat semen in a Tris-based lyophilized preservative-diluter, without performing seminal washing, compared with a control preservative-diluter of lactose-skimmed milk (DC), removing the seminal plasma by centrifugation. Materials and methods. It will cover 90 ejaculates, volume, motility, concentration, viability, and sperm morphology. The fit ejaculates were mixed and the pool divided into five portions, each receiving one of 4 lyophilized combinations based on Tris-Glucose-Ac. Citrus and Glycerol with different concentrations of BSA (0.1%, 0.5%, 1% and 2%) or DC. It was frozen in 0.1 ml pellets in nitrogen vapors, and after 2 min., They were stored in liquid nitrogen until thawing 7 days later, the following were determined: motility percentage (30, 120 and 240 minutes), viability, damaged acrosomes and total anomalies (30 and 120 minutes) and were compared using a Binary Logistic Regression model. Results. The highest sperm motility and viability (p<0.05) in the three times was for 0.5%, 1% and 2% of BSA, which were higher than 0.1% of BSA and DC. Damages acrosome and total abnormalities at 30 and 120 minutes were lower (p<0.05) for 0.5%, 1% and 2% of BSA compared to 0.1% and DC. Conclusions. The cryopreservation of goat semen does not require seminal washing by centrifugation if 0.5-2% BSA is used as a membrane protector in a lyophilized dilute-conservative based on Tris-Glucose-Citric Acid and Glycerol.
