In vitro developmental ability of ovine oocytes following intracytoplasmic injection with freeze-dried spermatozoa

Abstract Freeze-drying (FD) is a new and alternative method to preserve spermatozoa in refrigeration or at room temperature. Suitable protection is required to maintain the sperm DNA integrity during the whole process and storage. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of rosmarinic acid an...
