Abstract

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of cryoprotectant ethylene glycol with graded concentrations on cryopreserved Gaga chicken semen. The treatment repetitions in this study were ten times, included Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) 7% as control, Ethylene Glycol 5%, Ethylene glycol 7%, and Ethylene glycol 9%. The research procedures included semen collection, semen dilution, semen packaging, prefreezing and freezing. The variables analyzed were plasma membrane integrity and DNA damage before freezing and after thawing, as well as a decrease in plasma membrane integrity and an increase in DNA damage after thawing. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that there was no significant effect of all treatments on the variables evaluated. This study found that there was no significant effect on all variables with an average plasma membrane integrity after thawing getting the results of 48-55% and the average DNA damage was 6-8%.
