개 정액 동결을 위한 glucose가 첨가된 glycerol-free TRIS 희석액을 개발하기 위해 glycerol-free TRIS내 알맞은 glucose의 양과 0.3 M glucose가 첨가된 glycerol-free TRIS내 정자의 적정 노출시간을 조사하였다. 여섯 마리의 수캐의 사출액을 0.04 M glucose가 첨가된 glycerol-free TRIS내에서 $4^{\circ}C$까지 100분 동안 냉각한 후 서로 다른 glucose농도 (0 M, 0,04 M, 0.1 M, 0.2 M, 0.3 M)의 glycerol-free TRIS에서 30분 동안 냉각하여 동결하였다. $37^{\circ}C$에서 25 초 동안 융해한 후 정자의 막 고유성과 첨단체 고유성을 검사하였다. 부가적으로 0.3 M glucose가 첨가된 glycerol-free TRIS내 정자의 적정 노출시간에 따른 정자의 동결 후 운동성, 생존성, DNA 고유성을 확인하였다. 막 고유성과 첨단체 고유성은 각각 6-carboxyfluoresceindiacetate(6-CFDA)/propidium iodide(PI) fluorescent staining와 Pisum sativum agglutinin conjugated-fluorescein isothiocyanate 방법에 의해 검사하였다. DNA 고유성은 terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling로 염색하여 flow cytometry로 검사하였다. 0.2 M 또는 0.3 M glucose가 첨가된 glycerol-free TRIS에서 동결된 정자가 낮은 농도의 glucose가 첨가된 희석액에서 동결된 정자보다 막 고유성이 높게 나타났으며(p<0.05), 첨단체 고유성은 0.3 M 군에서 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 운동성은 50 분 군에서 높게 나타났으나(p<0.05), DNA fragmentation index는 노출시간에 따라 차이가 없었다. 본 연구 결과 개정자가 0.3 M glucose가 첨가된 glycerol-free TRIS에서 $4^{\circ}C$, 50 분간 냉각 후 동결과 융해 후 더 높은 생존성을 나타냈다.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the renditions to maintain good post-thaw motility and viability of canine spermatozoa when the semen was frozen using methanol. The semen from two male dogs which had been proven to be fertile in the previous one year was treated with different compositions of semen diluent and was frozen at different freezing temperatures, When canine semen was frozen at-2$0^{\circ}C$, -6$0^{\circ}C$, or -8$0^{\circ}C$, the spermatozoa frozen and stored at -2$0^{\circ}C$ showed very low post-thaw motility and viability from day 2 to 7 and showed no viability since day 15 after freezing. The spermatozoa frozen and stored at -6$0^{\circ}C$ or -8$0^{\circ}C$ showed higher post-thaw motility and viability on day 2, 1, 15 and 30 after freezing than that frozen and stored at-2$0^{\circ}C$(p<0.01), with no difference between two groups. Among different composition groups of the semen diluents of control(tris + egg yolk + glycerol), egg yolk-free, 히ycerol-free, and tris-free, Prior to freezing, the egg yolk-free diluent showed significantly love. motility and viability than the other diluents(p<0.05). On each thawing day (from day 2 to 15 after freezing), control group showed considerably higher motility and viability than the other groups(p<0.01). The canine spermatozoa frozen and stored at -6$0^{\circ}C$ and -8$0^{\circ}C$ showed gradual decrease of motility from day 2 to 30 after freezing and the spermatozoa of these two groups thawed on day 30 showed considerably love. motility than those thawed on day 2 after freezing, respectively(p<0.01). These results indicate that the freezing temperature of either -6$0^{\circ}C$ or -8$0^{\circ}C$ can be applicable to the freezing method using methanol and also all of the components of the semen diluent including cryoprotectant, buffer and cold-shock buffer are very important to maintain motility and viability of canine spermatozoa in the freezing and thawing procedure.
