In vitro inoculation of Aeromonas hydrophila and Pseudomonas fluorescens in cryopreserved silver barb (Barbodes gonionotus) milt: Effect on fertilization capacity and transmission potential to embryos.

Purposive use of cryopreserved sperm contaminated with pathogenic agents has increased the risk of spreading of fish diseases. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of A. hydrophila subsp.

Influence of Aeromonas hydrophila and Pseudomonas fluorescens on motility, viability and morphometry of cryostored silver barb (Barbodes gonionotus) sperm.

This objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of A. hydrophila subsp. hydrophila and P.

Effect of antibiotic supplementation on the quality of cryopreserved fish sperm of silver barb (Barbodes gonionotus): Sperm motility and viability, bacterial quality and fertilization.

Disease prevention is a key aspect in developing cryopreservation procedures for fish sperm and in improving the reproductive biotechnology for commercially important aquatic species. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of an antibiotic supplementation (0.25% penicillin-streptomycin, PS and 0.

Semen collection methods affect the bacterial composition of post-thawed semen of silver barb (Barbodes gonionotus).

Biosafety issue associated with the risk of pathogenic contamination of cryopreserved semen is a common concern because of associated declines in sperm quality, storage period and disease transmission. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of methods of semen collection on sperm quality and bacterial composition of post-thawed semen of silver barb (Barbodes gonionotus). Semen collection methods consisted of four treatments: (1) hand-stripping of abdomen without rinsing of urogenital area with water, (2) hand-stripping of abdomen after rinsing of urogenital area with water, (3) catheterization without rinsing of urogenital area with water and (4) catheterization after rinsing of urogenital area with water.
