Abstract:The structural features of the plasma membranes of avian sperm make them more sensitive, compared to those of mammals, to low-temperature stress. The qualitative and quantitative composition of membrane lipids can become a determining factor in the development of new effective compositions of cryoprotective media. The purpose of the study was to determine the lipid composition of the plasma membranes of native rooster sperm, the content of carbohydrates and polyols in their cytosol, as well … Show more
