Effect of different cryoprotectants and sperm densities of orange mud crab, Scylla olivacea (Herbst, 1796) for long-term storage of spermatozoa
The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of different cryoprotectants and sperm densities for long-term storage of orange mud crab, Scylla olivacea spermatozoa. Spermatozoa were obtained by homogenizing the spermatophores using a glass homogenizer in an ice-bath followed by centrifu...
