“…Glycerol is another common agent used for cryopreservation of male gametes (Ahn, Park, & Lim, ), although certain factors, such as like its high molecular weight, viscosity and impermeability, make it less favourable for use as a cryoprotectant (Miliorini et al, ). A number of studies indicate that MG is an ideal cryoprotectant for fish spermatozoa, based on investigations in Brycon insignis (Viveiros et al, ), Piaractus brachypomus (Ramirez‐Merlano, Velasco‐Santamaría, Medina‐Robles, & Cruz‐Casallas, ), Piaractus mesopotamicus and Piaractus lineatus (Viveiros et al, ), Colossoma macropomum (Carneiro, Azevedo, Santos, & Maria, ) and Steindachneridion scriptum (Ribeiro et al, ).…”
