Morphological abnormalities in buffalo spermatozoa in fresh and frozen semen.
Spermatozoa of eight Murrah buffalo bulls were diluted in citric acid whey, sodabicarbid-glucose-fructose egg-yolk, and skim milk egg-yolk, respectively, at a rate of 1 : 10, and were stored as liquid or frozen. The morphological evaluation of the spermatozoa revealed a marked superiority of the first-named diluent as regards survival and damage rate under liquid and freezing storage.
