Evaluation of motility and morphology of frozen bull semen under different thawing methods used for artificial insemination in North Shewa zone, Ethiopia.

The frozen bull semen straws were gathered from three specifically chosen locations in the North Shewa Zone, namely Baso, Chacha, and Debre-Birhan town, and the laboratory work was carried out at the Debre Birhan agricultural research center. The researchers wanted to see how different thawing methods affected the mass motility of frozen bull sperm. The thawing protocols used for mass motility evaluation were 37 °C for 30 s, 35 °C for 40 s, 40 °C for 40 s, body temperature using a hand for 15 s and body temperature using a hand for 30 s by using a water bath.
