Which is more effective in thawing frozen rooster sperm: varying temperature or duration?
Thawing at 37°C and storing at 4°C for up to 24 hours optimizes sperm motility and viability, minimizing cryodamage and ensuring functional preservation. This approach is effective for short-term storage and crucial for sustaining genetic diversity and fertility in poultry breeding programs.
