Cryopreservation has facilitated advancement of biological research by allowing the storage
of cells over prolonged periods of time. While cryopreservation at extremely low …

This study investigated whether cryopreservation-induced injury to koala spermatozoa could
be explained using an experimental model that mimics the structural and physiological …

Two studies were conducted to understand sperm cryosensitivity in an endangered equid,
the Przewalski's horse (Equus ferus przewalski), while testing the cryoprotectant ability of …

Semen collected from 10 saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) was used to investigate
sperm in vitro manipulation and preservation. Preliminary studies revealed that phosphate …

breaks are a normal feature of koala sperm chromatin, while double-stranded DNA breaks are …

Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) have a significant role to play in reptile
conservation, yet are severely lacking. Previous attempts to cryopreserve spermatozoa in …

This experiment documented the incidence and variability of sperm characteristics found in
freshly collected and ex vivo—manipulated semen samples from a population of disease …

The aim of the present study was to develop a protocol for the successful cryopreservation of
Saltwater crocodile spermatozoa. Sperm cells were frozen above liquid nitrogen vapour in …
