“…The same phenomenon was observed in VAP values and these values started to decrease with concentration of 0.01 ppm ( Figure 6C). The obtained results are consistent with the literature and similar results were reported by (Kime et al, 1996;Chyb et al, 2000;Dietrich et al, 2010).…”

“…However, 0.4-1 pp m (sperm d ilution rate 1:39) of Hg Cl 2 changed the morphology of postswimming spermatozoas and their motility co mpletely arrested at concentrations as low as 0.1 pp m (sperm dilution rate 1:2500) of HgCl 2 (Abascal, Cosson, & Fauvel, 2007). The modified sperms of rainbow trout using Hg (1-10 mg/ l) and Cd (10 mg/l) and reported changes in their spermatozoa motility after 4 h incubation (Dietrich et al, 2010). Similarly, Li, et al (2010) investigated the motility parameters and antioxidant effect on sperm of Sterlet (Acipenser ruthenus) of heavy metals.…”

“…However, in recent years, several studies have been carried out to investigate in vitro sperm to xicity of some toxic materials using CASA systems (Abascal, Cosson, & Fauvel, 2007;Chyb, Kime, M iko lajczy k, Szczerbik, & Epler, 2000;Chyb, Kime, Szczerb ik, Miko lajczyk, & Ep ler, 2001;Dietrich et al, 2010;Fabbrocini et al, 2012;Kime et al, 1996;Li, Li, Dzyuba, & Randak, 2010;Van Loo k, & Kime, 2003). Recently, in vitro sperm to xicity attract researcher's attention, thus, there are limited studies on toxicity of nanoparticles for risk assessment of nanomaterials.…”

This study was carried out to clarify the toxicity properties of Flower-like zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) on collected sperm samples from Cyprinus carpio using computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA). Flower-like ZnO NPs were successfully synthesized using a simple system at 120• C for 5 h by the microwave-assisted solvothermal techniques. The synthesized ZnO NPs were characterized for its structural, morphological and thermal properties. After that, the different concentrations of synthesized ZnO NPs (0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 0.5, 1 ppm) were examined with Cyprinus carpio sperm samples collected from Karakaya reservoir. The spermatozoa motility parameters which contain to curvilinear velocity (VCL), straight line velocity (VSL), average path velocity (VAP), straightness (STR), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH), and beat cross frequency (BCF) was computed and recorded by CASA. According to the results, while VCL, VAP and BCF were statistically significant (P<0.05), VSL, ALH and STR were not statistically significant (P>0.05). In addition, the EC 50 values of VCL and VAP parameters were calculated 0.56 ppm and 0.004 ppm, respectively.

“…Sperm survival rates were similar to those described by Tessaro et al (2012) (62.57 ± 3.62 to 93.52 ± 0.85 seconds). Sperm dilution in copper-contaminated water at concentrations above 45 mg L -1 had a negative effect on sperm motility, possibly due to the ability of heavy metals to bind to flagellum proteins affecting sperm motility (DIETRICH et al, 2010). Furthermore, at these concentrations, agglutination of sperm cells occurs, contributing to the inhibition of sperm motility.…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of copper-contaminated water on sperm motility, fertilization, and embryonic and larval development of silver catfish (Rhamdia quelen). A randomized experimental design with five treatments and four replicates was used. Two experiments were carried out: (1) controlled fertilization was performed under different levels of copper contamination and egg hatching was performed in clean water; and (2) copper-contaminated water was used for both fertilization and hatching assays. The time of sperm motility and sperm motility rates linearly decreased with increasing copper concentration in the water. Fertilization and hatching rates were also affected when the concentrations of copper in the water were above 0.0979 mg Cu +2 L -1 and 0.0331 mg Cu +2 L -1 , respectively. Gamete exposure to levels between 15 mg Cu +2 L -1 and 60 mg Cu +2 L -1 for short periods of time negatively affected sperm motility, oocyte fertilization, and egg hatching rates. In addition, when gametes and embryos were exposed at levels above 0.03 mg Cu +2 L -1 during long periods of time, egg hatching rates were reduced, and at levels between 0.05 mg Cu +2 L -1 and 0.20 mg Cu +2 L -1 the number of abnormal larvae increased.

ResumoO objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito da água contaminada de cobre na motilidade espermática, fertilização e desenvolvimento embrionário e larval de jundiá (Rhamdia quelen). O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualizado, com cinco tratamentos e quatro repetições. Dois ensaios foram conduzidos: (1) a fertilização controlada foi realizada com diferentes níveis de água contaminada com cobre e a incubação do ovo realizada em água limpa; e (2) a contaminação da água foi utilizada tanto na fertilização e quanto na incubação dos ovos. O tempo de motilidade de espermatozóides e as taxas de motilidade do esperma foram reduzidas com o aumento da concentração de cobre na água. As taxas de fertilização e eclosão também foram afetados quando as concentrações de cobre na água

“…Once again, involvement of oxidative stress through the induction of ROS production in spermatozoa was established. Exposure of rainbow trout (O. mykiss) sperm to the trace elements mercury and cadmium led to an increase in DNA damage measured through the comet assay, with deleterious consequences on sperm motility and hatching rate (Dietrich et al 2010). …”

In this review we provide an overview of the components of the spermatozoa playing an important role in reproductive success beyond fertilization, showing the relationship between the integrity of the diverse elements and the development of a healthy offspring. The present knowledge about fish sperm chromatin organization, epigenetic modifications of DNA and histones and sperm-borne RNAs, essential in controlling embryo development, is summarized, pointing out the possibility of using specific genes or transcripts as biomarkers of sperm quality. Data about commercial species are reported when available and more detailed information about zebrafish sperm is presented.Considering the implications that the integrity of sperm genome and epigenome has on the preservation of a proper genotype and phenotype in the progeny, the methods applied for the study of chromatin damage and for the study of transcriptome are described. Moreover we discuss some injuring agents affecting paternal information, from the presence of contaminants in the aquatic environment, to the reproductive *Manuscript Click here to download Manuscript: Herrez et al revised aquaculture.docx Click here to view linked References practices applied in fish farming. The consequences of fertilizing with damaged spermatozoa, as well as the zygotic ability to repair damage are also reviewed.
