“…The ability of CBENF to reduce the oxidative stress (Chen et al., 2023; Lesmana et al., 2021) caused by the cryopreservation process may have contributed to the enhancement of sperm motility in this study. Clove buds, which have a potent antioxidant effect along with the lipid peroxidation of chilled sperm membrane for 2 h, were primarily responsible for this improvement (Suleman et al., 2021). According to our findings in rabbits, clove bud extract increased PM, SV and MI compared to control ram semen after freezing and thawing (Baghshahi et al., 2014).…”

“…According to our findings in rabbits, clove bud extract increased PM, SV and MI compared to control ram semen after freezing and thawing (Baghshahi et al., 2014). After cryopreservation, the clove bud extract (7 and 14 ppm) was applied to bull semen to improve PM, MI and fertilization potential (Suleman et al., 2021). Clove extracts improved the parameters of sperm motility in sheep after chilling and freeze–thaw cycles.…”

“…Both SV and acrosome integrity in cryopreserved porcine were improved by adding exogenous rosemary or cysteine to the extender (Malo et al., 2011). The fruit pulp extract of Syzygium cumini (Jambul) at two levels (7 and 14 ppm) increased PM, MI and fertilizing capacity in cryopreserved bull semen (Suleman et al., 2021). After freezing, the natural additive Echinacea purpurea improved PM, kinetics, acrosome integrity and mitochondrial function.…”

The current study aimed to investigate the impact of nano‐formulations of clove bud ethanolic extract (CBENF) in the extender on sperm characteristics, antioxidant capacity, oxidative biomarkers, enzymatic activity, apoptosis and fertility of post‐thawed rabbit semen. Twelve mature male rabbits semen samples were pooled and cryopreserved in a Tris‐egg yolk‐based extender containing varying concentrations of CBENF (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 μg/mL). After the equilibration and freezing–thawing process, CBENF (100 μg /mL) significantly enhanced progressive motility, viability and membrane integrity. Conversely, sperm abnormality was significantly reduced by CBENF supplementation. Total antioxidant capacity was increased in the post‐thawed sperm medium, while nitric oxide and malondialdehyde were decreased in all CBENF concentrations. The lactic dehydrogenase and caspase‐3 activities were decreased, whereas the number of live spermatozoa with an intact acrosome was increased in all CBENF concentrations. Conception rate and litter size per doe were higher in doe rabbits inseminated with semen supplemented with 100 μg CBENF/mL than un‐supplemented group (76% vs. 52% and 8.4 vs. 7.7/doe), with no statistical differences. These findings suggest that supplementing rabbit extenders with 100 μg of CBENF/mL could be an effective strategy for enhancing freeze–thawing rabbit sperm attributes and fertility.

Sperm preservation is a crucial factor for the success of assisted reproductive technology (ART) in humans, livestock, and wildlife. Irrespective of the extender and the storage conditions used, semen handling and preservation negatively affect sperm quality. Moreover, oxidative stress, which often arises during semen storage, significantly reduces sperm function and compromises the sperm fertilizing ability by inducing oxidative damage to proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Plant extracts have recently emerged as a cheap and natural source of additives to preserve and enhance sperm function during semen storage. The present work provides an update on the use of these natural compounds as alternative additives for sperm preservation in 13 animal species, including humans. A detailed description of the effects of 45 plant species, belonging to 28 families, on sperm function during semen storage is presented. The plant material and extraction method employed, dosage, possible toxic effects, and antimicrobial properties are provided.
