Using Resveratrol and Epigallocatechin-3-gallate to improve cryopreservation of stallion spermatozoa with low-quality

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in semen with low-quality increased from 25% to about 40%. Resveratrol (Res) is a natural grape-derived phytoalexin and epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is the major polyphenol in green tea (Camellia sinensis); both molecules are known to have high levels of antioxidant activity. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of this antioxidant ’s supplementation on cryopreservation of stallion semen with poor quality. Exp1: Experiment design to asses of stallions semen quality (n = 3).
