Impact of extender supplementation with tomato juice on semen quality of chicken semen during liquid storage
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of tomato juice inclusion in semen extender on sperm characteristics during in vitro storage of chickens' semen were evaluated and the results showed that adding tomato juice up to 8 ml per 100 ml of extender significantly increased mass activity and individual motility percentages.

Effect of tempol on post-thaw semen parameters and fertility during chicken semen cryopreservation
TL;DR: Adding tempol to cryopreservation mixture did not improve the post-thaw semen parameters or fertility, and fertilizing potential of the cryop Reserved sperm was evaluated after insemination in the PD-1 line hens.

A study of the spermatozoon of the fowl, with particular reference to osmiophilic bodies in the sperm head
F. B. Adamstone,L. E. Card +1 more
TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to learn something of the nature of the bead‐like bodies which occur in the head of the sperm of the fowl since it was found in a previous study that they are apparently affected in a characteristic manner by vitamin E deficiency.
