| Abstract: | In this study, motility and oxidative–antioxidant capacity (thiobarbituric acid‐reactive substance level TBARS], superoxide dismutase SOD], catalase CAT] and glutathione reductase GR]) of beluga sturgeon (Huso huso) sperm, stored for 6 days at ?80°C, were evaluated. After 2 days of storage, sperm motility was significantly decreased (no motile sperm were observed after 6 days of storage; p < .05), while TBARS and SOD values were significantly increased (p < .05). CAT and GR activities did not show significant changes among storage times (p > .05). Furthermore, all investigated parameters showed a significant difference between semen stored at 4°C (control) and ?80°C during in vitro storage (p < .05). Data from this work can potentially be useful in sturgeon sperm cryobanking. |
