Resumo
The semen cryopreservation process causes damages in spermatozoa characteristics. This study aimedto evaluate the effects of tea of Copaíba extract (Copaifera luetzelburgii), in different concentrations, added tothe Tris-egg yolk extender, in the quality of post-cryopreserved spermatozoa from locally adapted breeds ofgoats. Were used four (4) goats Breeds (Azul, Canindé, Moxotó e Repartido) adults, male, six of each breed,aged between 1 and 6 years, a pool of ejaculates were formed to analyze. The animals were randomly dividedinto four experimental treatments: TI (Control), TII (0,1mg), TIII (0,2mg) and TIV (0,5mg). The samples werefrozen and stored, after 30 days they were thawed for analysis by term-resistance test (TTR). The addition of teaof copaíba extract showed no significant difference between treatments by TTR, therefore the use of tea copaíbaextract in seminal diluting not increment the sperm longevity post-thawing.(AU)

We evaluated the addition of folic acid to the extender TRIS-egg yolk used in cryopreservation, seekingimprovements for the sperm kinetics and mitochondrial activity post-thawing. Were evaluated sevenejaculates/animal from six Santa Inês by Artificial Vagina, with minimum values of motility by 70.0% and vigor3. We evaluated the seminal pool for concentration and morphology. We diluted in Tris-egg yolk extender forcryopreservation, dividing it in control, Group 2 we added 10.000 uM and Group 3 we added 5000 uM of folicacid. We froze in straws(0.25 mL). Was evaluated for motility and vigor, post-thawing by slow term-resistancetest, the times T0, T60, T120 and T180 minutes one week after. For the mitochondrial activity evaluation, wasused cationic lipophilic fluorochrome JC-1. The folic acid effects were analyzed using ANOVA followed byStudent Newman-Keuls test. The groups with folic acid showed significant higher motility. Mitochondrialactivity did not differ between groups.(AU)
