Abstract
The purpose of this study, carried out in two experiments, was to investigate the antioxidant effect of Prosopis farcta in Experiment 1, and trehalose in Experiment 2 in the freezing extender, on the quality of frozen-thawed goat epididymal spermatozoa. Sperm samples were added to based egg-yolk Tris-extender containing experimental treatments. The first experimental treatments included the following: an extender of the control group without additive and extender containing 50, 100, or 150 µg/mL of Prosopis farcta ethanolic extract (PEE1, PEE2, and PEE3, respectively). Treatments of the second experiment include an extender of the control group without additive, an extender containing 100 mM of trehalose (Tr), an extender containing 100 µg/mL PEE2, and 100 µg/mL PEE2 + 100 mM Tr. The results of the first experiment showed that PEE2 compared with the control group led to a significant decrease (p < 0.05) in malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration. Also, PEE1 and PEE2 treatments resulted in a significant increase (p < 0.05) in motility parameters by computer-assisted sperm analysis, and MDA concentrations decreased significantly (p < 0.05) in all treatments compared with the control group. In general, the results of the present experiment showed that Prosopis farcta ethanolic extract at the level of 100 µg/mL was effective in improving the quality of frozen-thawed goat epididymal spermatozoa. Also, a combination of Prosopis farcta ethanolic extract and trehalose can be successful in freezing goat epididymal spermatozoa.

期刊介绍:
Biopreservation and Biobanking is the first journal to provide a unifying forum for the peer-reviewed communication of recent advances in the emerging and evolving field of biospecimen procurement, processing, preservation and banking, distribution, and use. The Journal publishes a range of original articles focusing on current challenges and problems in biopreservation, and advances in methods to address these issues related to the processing of macromolecules, cells, and tissues for research.
In a new section dedicated to Emerging Markets and Technologies, the Journal highlights the emergence of new markets and technologies that are either adopting or disrupting the biobank framework as they imprint on society. The solutions presented here are anticipated to help drive innovation within the biobank community.
Biopreservation and Biobanking also explores the ethical, legal, and societal considerations surrounding biobanking and biorepository operation. Ideas and practical solutions relevant to improved quality, efficiency, and sustainability of repositories, and relating to their management, operation and oversight are discussed as well.
