Nanozyme conjugated chitosan nanoparticles improve buffalo bull sperm cryopreservation by enhancing antioxidant defense and mitochondrial function
At a concentration of 1 or 2 μg/mL, SeCN demonstrates potent cryoprotective effects by enhancing sperm function, reducing oxidative stress, and preserving mitochondrial activity and ultrastructure changes of sperm. Incorporating SeCN into semen extenders may improve cryosurvival in buffalo and represents a promising strategy for optimizing artificial insemination outcomes in livestock breeding programs.
