Lipid changes of goat sperm plasma membrane during epididymal maturation

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
The altered lipid profile of the mature sperm membrane leads to changes in its fluidity that play an important role in determining the structure and functions of the biomembrane.

Staalname en cryopreservatie van epididymale spermatozoa bij de hond

TL;DR: The float-up method is the method of choice when epididymal sperm has to be collected in dogs and more spermatozoa were collected than with the aspiration method.

Évolution de la composante lipidique de la membrane plasmique des spermatozoïdes durant la maturation épididymaire

TL;DR: A significant share of these sperm lipid changes occurs during their descent through the epididymal tubule, which continues within the female genital tract during the capacitation process, an essential prerequisite for acrosomic reaction and hence fertilization.

An Update on Semen Physiology, Technologies, and Selection Techniques for the Advancement of In Vitro Equine Embryo Production: Section II.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a two-section review of available semen selection techniques for equine assisted reproductive technologies (ART) and in vitro embryo production (IVP) in the equine industry.

Mini-percoll technique induces similar capacitation features in domestic ruminant frozen-thawed spermatozoa regardless of the presence of heparin.

TL;DR: It was observed that the capacitation process occurs similarly between ruminant species, refuting the first hypothesis of this study and indicating that the use of mini-Percoll technique regardless of the presence of heparin could be a useful alternative for the preparation of ruminants frozen-thawed sperm.

A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from animal tissues.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors described a simplified version of the method and reported the results of a study of its application to different tissues, including the efficiency of the washing procedure in terms of the removal from tissue lipides of some non-lipide substances of special biochemical interest.

Two dimensional thin layer chromatographic separation of polar lipids and determination of phospholipids by phosphorus analysis of spots

TL;DR: Separation of polar lipids by two-dimensional thin layer chromatography providing resolution of all the lipid classes commonly encountered in animal cells and a sensitive, rapid, reproducible procedure for determination of phospholipids by phosphorus analysis of spots are described.
