RESUMENLa prueba hipoosmótica ha sido utilizada ampliamente en la valoración de la calidad seminal en varias especies animales. El presente estudio tuvo la finalidad de comparar el efecto de la incubación de espermatozoides caninos en dos soluciones hipoosmóticas (0 mOsm/l -HOST-s y 150 mOsm/l -HOST) sobre la vitalidad espermática (VE). Se obtuvieron 15 eyaculados (2ª fracción) mediante manipulación digital en 10 perros, cuyos espermiogramas fueron considerados normales. De cada eyaculado se tomaron alícuotas de 5 µl para diluirlas en 45 µl de cada solución hipoosmótica, e incubarlas a 37 ºC por 5 y 45 min, respectivamente. La VE se evaluó mediante tinción eosina-nigrosina. En la prueba hipoosmótica se obtuvo 92.1 y 90.1% de espermatozoides dilatados para HOST-s y HOST, respectivamente (p<0.05) y en la prueba de VE se obtuvo 66.5 y 78.3% de espermatozoides vivos para HOST-s y HOST, respectivamente (p<0.01). Se concluye que la menor osmolaridad genera menor VE posincubación.

The present study aimed to compare the effect of incubation of canine sperm into two hypoosmotic solutions (0 mOsm/l -HOST-s and 150 mOsm/l -HOST) on sperm viability. Fifteen ejaculates (2 nd fraction) were obtained by digital manipulation from 10 dogs and the spermiograms were considered as normals. A 5 µl aliquots per ejaculate were diluted in 45 µl of each of the two hypoosmotic solutions and incubated at 37 °C for
