Summary

THE EFFECT OF A 48-H SCROTAL INSULATION ON SPERMATOZOAL VIABILITY (MOTILITY AND ACROSOMAL INTEGRITY), BEFORE AND AFTER SEMEN CRYOPRESERVATION, WAS STUDIED IN 6 YOUNG HOLSTEIN BULLS WHOSE SEMEN WAS COLLECTED TWICE IN SUCCESSION AT 3-D INTERVALS. MOTILITY AND ACROSOMAL INTEGRITY WERE MEASURED BEFORE AND AFTER INCUBATION OF SEMEN AT 37 DEG C FOR 3 H. SEMEN WAS CRYOPRESERVED EACH COLLECTION DAY UNTIL MORPHOLOGICALLY ABNORMAL CELLS EXCEEDED 50 % OF THE EJACULATE (D 12 TO 21). RESULTS ARE GIVEN IN TERMS OF VIABILITY OF SEMEN, IN DIFFERENT CASES.
