The objective of the study was to identify some protein factors involved in bovine epididymis (SPZEP) and ejaculated (SPZEJ) sperm functional quality. With this propose, epididymis and ejaculated sperm of 11 Nellore crossbreed animals, 24 to 30 month of age, was evaluated for morphophisyological characteristics and analyzed for the peptides content. The morphophisyological characteristics consisted of progressive motility (MOT, %), velocity, sperm pathologies, and acrosome and chromatin integrity. These evaluations showed that the mean values of the SPZEJ were higher […]
