Storage time (days)
Figure 1. Evolution of sperm quality parameters in the different tested storageways
compared with control samples after different incubation times (Und-PD,
undiluted sperm stored in Petri dishes; Und-Epp; undiluted sperm stored in
Eppendorf´s microtubes; Di-PD, diluted sperm stored in Petri dishes and Di-
PD+BSA, diluted sperm containing 2% BSA stored in Petri dishes. Data are
expressed as mean ± SEM (n=10). Different letters mean significant differences
between storage-way at the same incubation time and the asterisk indicates
significant differences with control samples.
