    The present study was conducted to examine the protective roles of cysteamine, trehalose, alpha-lipoic acid and combinations of these antioxidants on post-thawed bull sperm and oxidative stress parameters. Five healthy Holstein bull (3-4 years old) were used. Eight ejaculates for each bull were collected and pooled. Pooled ejaculate, splitted into seven equal aliquots and diluted at 37 °C with base extenders containing cysteamine 2 mM, trehalose 50 mM, alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) 1 mM, cysteamine 2 mM + trehalose 50 mM, ALA 1 mM + trehalose 50 mM, cysteamine 2 mM + ALA 1 mM and no antioxidant (control), was cooled to 5 °C and then frozen. Frozen straws were thawed in a water bath for evaluation. The combination of cysteamine 2 mM and ALA 1 mM of the semen extender improved the percentages of post-thawed subjective motility (68 ± 2.7%), and progressive motility (42.9 ± 4.7%), compared with the controls (61 ± 4.2% and 37.5 ± 8%, respectively, non- significantly, P>0.05). The supplementation of the semen extender with combination of cysteamine 2 mM and ALA 1 mM produced a higher acrosome integrity and mitochondrial activity (52.02 ± 6.4% and 32 ± 4.1%, respectively), compared with the controls (30.5 ± 1.7 and 14.02 ± 3.5% respectively, P < 0.05). Combination of cysteamine and ALA antioxidants in semen extenders provided the benefit in terms of sperm motilities, acrosome integrity and mitochondrial activity on frozen-thawed bull sperm.

    The aim of this study was to describe an optimal sonication procedure for sperm cells. Therefore, we used several parameters such as damaged spermatozoa rate (%), mitochondrial activity rate (%), levels of lipid peroxidation, and total antioxidant potential. Ejaculates were collected from rams (n = 3) and were divided into aliquots and 3-, 6-, and 10-s duration times; 1, 3, 5, and 8 repetitive application groups were established. In the groups with 3-, 6- and 10-s duration times, with the increasing number of repeated applications, damaged spermatozoa rates increased (P < 0.05) while mitochondrial activity rates decreased (P < 0.05). In relation with sonication duration time, total antioxidant potential levels increased (P < 0.05) in single-application groups compared to those in control groups and gradually decreased as the repetitions increased. The most effective results were obtained in the group with 8 repetitions and 10-s duration based on damaged spermatozoa rate and mitochondrial activity rate.
