The aim of this study was to determine the type and the best concentration of egg yolk in maintaining the quality of kampung rooster spermatozoa during cryopreservation. This study used a completely randomized factorial pattern design with the first factor was the type of egg yolk (purebred chicken, kampung chicken, duck, and quail) and the second factor was the concentration of egg yolk (5%, 10%, and 15%). Semen was collected from twelve kampung roosters using massage method. Immediately after collection, the semen was evaluated macroscopically and microscopically. Semen with more than 70% motility was used in this study. The semen was diluted, packed in a ministraw, equilibrated, and frozen using liquid nitrogen vapor and stored in a liquid nitrogen container for 24 hours. Observation of spermatozoa motility was carried out in fresh semen, diluted semen, after equilibration and after thawing with four replications. The results showed that the type of egg yolk treatment had no effect (P0.05) on the recovery rate and motility of spermatozoa before and after cryopreservation, but egg yolk concentration had a highly significant effect (P0.01) on the quality of spermatozoa. Egg yolks in 10-15% concentration had spermatozoa motility and recovery rate higher than egg yolk with 5% concentration. In conclusion, purebred chicken egg yolk, kampung chicken egg yolk, duck egg yolk, and quail egg yolk each in diluent can be used to maintain the quality of kampung rooster spermatozoa at a concentration of 10-15% during cryopreservation.

Traditionally, commercial hen egg yolk has been used in extenders or freezing media because of its easy availability. However, the use of quail egg yolk has not been used for preserving Nguni bull semen. The aim of the study was to compare the suitability of different quail egg yolk concentrations (5, 10, 15, and 20%) for cryopreserving Nguni bull semen. Semen was collected from 14 stud Nguni bulls with the aid of electro ejaculator. Collected semen samples were kept in a thermos-flask containing warm water at a temperature of 37°C and transported to the laboratory for further analyses. The sperm motility traits were evaluated using computer-aided sperm analysis prior extension. Semen samples were then randomly allocated into 5, 10, 15, and 20% of quail egg yolk and 20% concentration of chicken egg yolk (control) in citrate extender. The extender was supplemented with 12% of glycerol (Seshoka et al. 2012) as a cryoprotectant, and semen samples were diluted (1 : 2) and equilibrated for a period of 4 h at 5°C. After equilibration, semen samples were loaded into 0.25-mL straws, placed into a controlled rate programmable freezer, and stored in a LN tank (–196°C) until thawing. Frozen semen straws were thawed in a water bath at 37°C for 1 min. Thawed semen was evaluated for sperm motility traits using a computer-aided sperm analysis system. Data were analysed with ANOVA. A significant difference was recorded between fresh total sperm motility rate (99%) and frozen-thawed semen samples with either 5% (87.3%) quail or 20% (87.6%) chicken egg yolk citrate extender compared with 10% (92.6%), 15% (91.2%), or 20% (89.9%) quail egg yolk citrate extender. Moreover, fresh semen also resulted in a significantly higher progressive sperm motility rate (39.3%) as compared with frozen-thawed with 5% (26.2%) or 20% quail (28.5%) or 20% chicken (22.7%) egg yolk citrate extender. The results also demonstrated that the use of 10, 15, and 20% quail egg yolk in citrate extender yielded comparable results on total sperm motility with fresh semen as compared with 5% quail and 20% chicken egg yolk. In conclusion, quail egg yolk extender provided sufficient cryo-effectiveness to cryopreservation of Nguni bull semen.

The aim of this research was to examine the possibility of semen cryopreservation using modified TES-Tris yolk citrat (TES-TYC) medium with different egg yolk. Semen fulfilling inclusion  criteria with WHO  criteria was divided into three groups and the sperm motility and vitality was counted as initial data. The semen was then mixed with TES-TYC medium with chicken egg yolk, TES-TYC medium with duck egg yolk and TES-TYC medium with goose egg yolk then cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen. After one mounth the semen was thawed and recount its sperm motility and vitality. Data obtained showed that the motility and vitality of  post freezing sperm cryopreserved with TES-TYC medium with chiken was higher compared to the other medium. It could be concluded that the existenced of chicken egg yolk in TES-TYC medium was better kept sperm integrity during cryopreservation compared with the other medium, hence the existenced of egg yolk as ingredient in TES-TYC medium should be chicken egg yolk.   Key words : motilitas dan vitalitas, medium TES-Tris yolk citrat, kuning telur

The aim of this work was to substitute chicken egg yolk with quail egg yolk in two semen extenders and to evaluate the quality of the extended canine semen following chilled storage. Semen was pooled from male dogs (n= 4) of about 18-months old and body weight of about 28 kg. Four extenders were tested: (1) tris buffered chicken egg yolk extender (2) tris buffered quail egg yolk extender, (3) skimmed milk chicken egg yolk extender and (4) skimmed milk quail egg yolk extender. Semen was diluted with corresponding extender in the ratio 1:4. The diluted semen samples were analyzed for motility, mass activity, viability, abnormalities percentage and pH for three consecutive days. There was no significant difference (P>0.05) between chicken egg yolk and quail egg yolk in either tris diluent or skimmed milk extender with respect to pH, mass activity and sperm motility. Samples stored in both the tris and skimmed milk-based extenders with quail egg yolk displayed greater viability than those in chicken egg yolk but the difference was not significant (P>0.05). Viability, mass activity and sperm motility decreased as treatment days increased in both chicken and quail egg yolk extenders. Results showed that a pH of 6.5 was maintained from day 0 to day 3. There was no difference in semen quality between chicken and quail egg yolk in either the tris diluent or skimmed milk extender (P> 0.05). It was recommended that quail egg yolk could be substituted for chicken egg yolk in the two canine semen extenders. Further modifications of the diluents with quail egg yolk might produce an improved result. Keywords: Canine, Chicken Chilled, Egg yolk, Extenders, Quail, Semen

The aim of this work is to develop a membrane-based cost-effective process for the rapid isolation of immunoglobulin from chicken egg yolk. It was found that a single-stage ultrafiltration using a 100 kDa molecular weight cut-off regenerated cellulose membrane could be employed to isolate immunoglobulin from the crude feedstock. The effects of operational parameters (solution pH, ionic strength, stirring speed and permeate flux) on the transmission of immunoglobulin and the presence of impurity protein with molecular weight close to immunoglobulin were quantified using the parameter scanning ultrafiltration technique. Under optimized conditions, the purity of immunoglobulin obtained was about 85 percent after the single-stage ultrafiltration process, and the recovery of immunoglobulin from the feedstock was 91 percent.
