“…Proteomics is a technique to characterize proteins of seminal plasma that can be correlated with essential sperm cell functions (Aslam et al, ), since several proteins of this fluid are involved in sperm capacitation (Manjunath & Thérien, ; Thérien, Moreau, & Manjunath, ; Thérien, Soubeyrand, & Manjunath, ) acrosome reactions (Souza, Moura, Lima‐Souza, & Killian, ; Thérien et al, ), sperm–oocyte binding (Erikson, Way, Chapman, & Killian, ; Gonçalves, Staros, & Killian, ) and fertilization (Manjunath & Thérien, ; Moura, Chapman, Koc, & Killian, ; Thérien et al, ), in addition to acting in sperm protection (Moura et al, ). Therefore, the proteins are related to fertility (Asadpour et al, ; Baruti et al, ; Choudhary, Kavya, Jerome, & Sharma, ; Dar et al, ; Killian, Chapman, & Rogowski, ) and can be used as biomarkers in buffaloes (Codognoto et al, ; Ramteke et al, ; Selvaraju et al, ). Then, the aim of this study was to compare seminal plasma proteins from cattle and buffalo ( Bubalus bubalis ).…”
