“Results indicate that with use of glycerol and the 1,000 MW dextran there was lesser sperm viability after both equilibration and cryopreservation, compared with use of the 10,000 or 20,000 MW dextran compounds.”
“ Dextran also served as a significant cryoprotectant in the presence of glycerol (0.87 mol l(-1)) and dimethyl sulphoxide (0.76 mol l(-1)), which are well known cryoprotectants; the action of the combined cryoprotectants was almost additive.”
