Özet

The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different extenders, cryoprotectants and glycerol additions on the post-thaw fertility and interactions between extenders and cryoprotectants during cryopreservation. Semen was collected by abdominal stripping from 30 adult male rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) and diluted with three different extenders (Erdahl-Graham, Lahnsteiner, glucose-based) containing 15% DMA, 15% DMSO, 15% DMA + 1% glycerol and 15% DMSO + 1% glycerol at a ratio of 1 : 2. Diluted samples were frozen as 0.1 ml pellets directly on dry ice (solid CO2, -79 degrees C). Eggs were pooled from 10 females. Fertilization was applied in plastic dishes and 600 eggs were used in each fertilization trial. Pellets were thawed in their own extenders (30 degrees C) at a ratio of 1 : 10. 0.3% NaCl was used for activating motility. Sperm-egg ratio was approximately 3 x 10(6) sp per egg. Experimental success was determined as the percentage of eyed-eggs 25 days after fertilization. The highest eyed-egg rate (49.3%) was obtained from semen frozen with glucose-based extender containing 15% DMSO + 1% glycerol. Our results indicate that the glucose-based extender containing DMSO is a useful combination, but that the addition of glycerol does not have a positive effect on post-thaw fertility, and that interaction of the extender-cryoprotectant is also important in the cryopreservation of rainbow trout semen.
