The aim of this study was to develop a method for cryopreserving turbot semen and to compare sperm motility characteristics, metabolic status and fertilization capacity of frozenthawed and fresh semen. The best results were obtained when spermatozoa were diluted at a 1:2 ratio with a modified Mounib extender, supplemented with 10% BSA and 10% DMSO. For freezing sperm samples, straws were placed at 6.5 cm above the surface of liquid nitrogen (LN) and plunged in LN. The straws were thawed in water bath at 30 degrees C for 5 sec. Use of this simple method resulted in a 60 to 80% reactivation rate of the thawed spermatozoa. Although the percentage of motile spermatozoa in the frozen-thawed semen samples was significantly lower than in fresh semen, spermatozoa velocity and respiratory rate remained unchanged. The process of cryopreservation significantly decreased intracellular ATP content. The fertilization rate of frozen-thawed spermatozoa was significantly lower than that of fresh spermatozoa, but it increased with sperm concentration.
