(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007-11-16) ANDREOTI, Magna; OHASHI, Otávio Mitio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5547874183666459
The aim of this work was evaluated the effect of Glutathione addition (GSH – 0.3mg/mL) in the semen separation, washing and capacitation steps on the bovine in vitro embryo production. Semen from one only bull was separated with Percoll and centrifugated twice with in vitro fertilization (IVF) medium (washing). Spermatozoa were capacitated in IVF medium during 1 h in 5% CO2 incubator at 38,5ºC. Experimental groups were: Control – it was not supplemented with GSH in separation and washing and capacitation was excluded; Group 1: without GSH in all steps; Group 2: GSH supplementation just in the capacitation; Group 3: GSH supplementation in the separation and washing steps (first washing only); Group 4: GSH supplementation in all steps. Bovine oocytes collected at slaughterhouse were in vitro matured and fertilized after semen preparations. Embryos were cultured during seven days with cleavage being analysed at day 2 and blastocyst rates and total embryo cell number (quality) at day7. Embryo rates were evaluated with chi-square test (χ2) and embryo quality with ANOVA in the software Bio Estat 3.0 (AYRES, et al., 2003) at significance level of 5%. There was not effect of the GSH supplementation in different steps of semen preparation (p>0,05) on cleavage, blastocysts and hatching rates (Control Group: 52%, 35% and 50%, respectively; G1: 60%, 37% and 44%, respectively; G2: 57%, 40% and 50%, respectively; G3: 56%, 37% and 51%, respectively; G4: 47%, 30% and 48%, respectively). Moreover, it was not observed effect on mean (±SD) of embryo total cell number (Control: 30,9±21,87, Group 1:57,8 ±18,26; Group 2:66,2 ±20,14; Group 3:62,1 ±22,48; Group 4:76,7 ±29,28; p> 0,05).

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-02-24) RAMOS, Anelise de Sarges; SANTOS, Simone do Socorro Damasceno; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4573238690293498; MIRANDA, Moysés dos Santos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3354029928888919; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7771-8174
Aiming to study reproductive biotechniques that can improve in vitro embryo production in the Amazon. The experiment aimed to analyze the effects of rainfall levels, semen used, cryoprotectants (diluters) of semen, presence of the dominant follicle and corpus luteum on the quantity and quality of oocytes and on the rate of embryos The experiment was carried out on the Paraíso farm in the municipality of Cachoeira do Arari, Ilha do Marajó - PA, for one year. Follicles with a diameter greater than 4.0 mm were obtained by the technique of follicular aspiration – Ovum Pick-up (OPU), guided by ultrasound. Forty buffaloes were selected for OPU and three sires for seminal collection, all of the Murrah breed and of reproductive age. For cryopreservation, the BotuBov® and Tes-Tris extenders were tested. The cumulus oophorus complexes (CCOs) were processed in the in vitro production laboratory of the Escola de Ensino Técnico do Estado do Pará (EETEPA). The best ones (CCOs) were matured, fertilized and cultured in vitro, after six days, the embryos were qualified and quantified, using the technique developed by the FIV laboratory at UFPA. The BotuBov® extender was the extender used in the PIVE for presenting better progressive motility (p<0,05) (70,70% ± 10,90%) in relation to the Tes Tris (60,42%±6,00%). There was no statistical difference (p>0,05) in the means and standard deviation of total aspirated follicles (11,75±5,23), of aspirated follicles per animal (11,23±1,39), of total screened COCs (10,5±61,65) and of CCOs tracked per animal (5,96±1,56) between the rainy and less rainy seasons (total follicles aspirated 12,47±4,86, follicles aspirated per animal 11,74 ±1,04, total screened CCOs 118,5±12,02 and screened CCOs per animal 7,27±0,83) respectively. Likewise, there was no significant difference (p>0,05) in the presence of the corpus luteum and dominant follicles and in the body condition score (ECC). In terms of embryos, there was also no statistical difference (p>0,05), between the rainiest (25,25% ±0,64%) and less rainy seasons (19,37% ±14,06%), respectively. We did not find statistical differences in embryo rates (p>0,05) in relation to the semen used (59,33% ±22,27%, 38,29% ±20,35% 54,17% ±31,55%). Thus, we concluded that the variables studied did not influence the production of embryos.

Produção in vitro de embriões de caititu (Pecari tajacu) criados em cativeiro
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-06-13) FERREIRA, Ana Cássia Sarmento; GUIMARÃES, Diva Anelie de Araújo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2891287458034896
This work considers the application of reproduction biotechniques on species Pecari tajacu designed to improve its potential for upbringing in captivity and aiming its production, conservation and the multiplication of genetical resources. To determine the maturation time in vitro, 48 females were utilized. An amount of 69 CCOs were selected and divided in 4 groups, per age and per time of MIV. They were then submitted to parthenogenetic activation in ionomycin and 6-DMAP. For the meiotic progression analysis, 165 oocytes were divided in 4 groups according to supplementation of hormones in MIV and time of maturation. For the cryopreservation, epididymal sperm of 9 males were utilized, diluted in Tris-fructose and ACP-120 and divided in groups of refrigeration at 4°C and freezing at -196 °C in the presence of glutathione (GSH), where the parameters of motility, vigor and viable sperm were evaluated, after fresh dilution and cryopreservation. For the embryo production, 97 oocytes after MIV of 36 hours were divided in groups of parthenogenetic activation, IVF and ICSI. Through parthenogenetic activation the rates of cleavages were obtained (47%) for the oocytes of females with less than 2 years of age, submitted to MIV in 36 hours. In all groups cleavages were observed, but with no significant difference (P>0,05) among the groups analysed. One blastocyst rate of 15,4% was observed only in the group of oocytes activated after MIV of 44 hours. In the meiotic progression analysis, in all times analyzed oocytes were found in MII. In the cryopreservation of the spermatozoa it was observed a drop of the parameters analyzed in the two extenders in all groups. The presence of glutathione did not interfere significantly in the parameters analyzed. In the freezing, the rates of motility and viable sperm were superior in ACP-120 (> 50%) and in the freezing in tris-fructose, 33% and 18%. The production of embryos in vitro was well succeeded in the parthenogenetic activation (62,9%) and in ICSI (52,6%). In IVF the rates were low (7%). The production of blastocyst occurred only in the partenotes embryos (4,5%). The results of this work showed the feasibility of reproductives biotechniques, such gametes conservation and in vitro production of embryos of the species Pecari tajacu.

Uso da L-arginina nos processos de capacitação espermática e fecundação in vitro de oócitos bovinos
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2010) SILVA, Thiago Velasco Guimarães; OHASHI, Otávio Mitio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5547874183666459
The aim of this work was to evaluate the use of the L-arginine in sperm capacitation and in vitro fertilization (IVF), analyzing its influence on the embryonic development, using semen from two bulls (Bos taurus and Bos indicus). In experiment 1, the spermatozoa had been incubated without oocytes, during 0, 1, 2 and 3 hour in IVF medium added of 0, 1, 10 and 50 mM L-arginine. In experiment 2, spermatozoa and oocytes had been incubated in IVF medium added with the L-arginine concentrations previously cited, during approximately 30 hour. The bovine oocytes had been matured in vitro (IVM) and embryonic culture (IVC) was supported by a monolayer of granulosa cells in SOF medium. It was evaluated fertilization (18 hpi), clivage and blastocyst rates (2º and 7º culture day, respectively). The Griess colorimetric method was applied to mensurement of the NO3 -/NO2 - produced during the IVF. For statistics analysis, values were considered significantly different if P<0.05 following the ANOVA test. The results had shown that L-arginine (1 mM), when added during sperm capacitation for two hours, increased the acrosome reaction rate as compared to Bos taurus control group (31,1±2,78 versus 23,4±2,65). The addition of L-arginine (50 mM) to IVF medium (experiment 2), in both Bos taurus and Bos indicus spermatozoa, decreased clivage rate (78,7±2,17 versus 65,7±9,32; 72,7±3,36 versus 45±7,12; respectively) and blastocyst rate (39,4±3,78 versus 15,2±6,12; 39,4±4,39 versus 16±8,54; respectively) as compared to control group. These results provide that L-arginine increased the acrosome reaction rate in Bos taurus, however reduced the clivage and blastocyst rates in both the bulls, but had not influenced the embryo quality.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-05-03) NOGUERA GUEVARA, Samuel Enrique; VALE, William Gomes; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7486151987920142
The use of intravaginal devices with progestin as protocol for synchronization of oestrus cycle for fixed time artificial insemination (FTAI) through “Pregna Heat - E'' protocol were used in 219 cows and 169 female buffaloes, belonging to six commercial farms located in the Tachira, Carabobo, and Portuguesa states, in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela with the aim to evaluate conception rates (CR) in beef cows and crossbred dairy cattle, milk buffalo and crossbred dairy cows, and crossbred beef and milk heifer as well as in milk buffalo heifers as well as, with the objective to evaluate several variables that can interfere with CR such as body condition score (BCS), number of births, birth interval treatment, degree of difficulty for AI in the farms in the Farm 1, whereas in other farms were evaluated only the CR. The farms adopted a semi-intensive management, with a diet based primarily on forage species introduced in a artificial pasture used in a rotational grazing system with supplementation on the field depending on the needs of each production system. On a Farm 1, located just south of Lake Maracaibo, Tachira State, were synchronized and subjected to FTAI, 22 crossbred dairy cattle heifers, 20 crossbred dairy cows in the postpartum period (PPP) and 18 crossbred buffalo dairy heifers inseminated when 27.2%, 30% and 0 (zero) CR were obtained; moreover in 24 buffalo cows in the PPP synchronized in the outbreeding season (February 2011), it was obtained a CR of 20.8%. For the Farm 2, located in the southern state Tachira, FTAI was performed in favorable season (November 2010) in 78 crossbred dairy buffalo cows in PPP it was obtaining a CR of 34.6%. In the case of Farm 3, located in Urama county in Carabobo State, 49 crossbred buffalo cows in the PPP, were subjected to FTAI when it was obtaining a CR of 42.8%; in Farm 4, located in Santa Ana county, Tachira state, 85 crossbred dairy cattle cows were used for FTAI with 40% CR obtained, whereas in Farm 5, located in Portuguesa state, 23 crossbred beef cows of dual purpose in PPP were subjected to FTAI and it was found47.8% CR; finally in the Farm 6 located in Portuguesa State 20 crossbred beef heifers and 49 crossbred beef cow, were subjected to FTAI were found a CR of 55 and 48.8%, respectively. Also on Farm 1 were compared variables such as CR and number of births, when it was clear demonstrated that CR in pluriparous beef cows with more than four parturitions the results obtained where quite higher when confronted with cows with 2-3 parturitions and primiparous (40.5 ≥ 4 births, 28.5% 2-3 births and 0% for primiparous), (P = 0.4130); when compared with CR and parturition interval and the use of FTAI protocol “Pregna Heat - E'', the CR is higher in cows between 60 and 200 days postpartum, than cows with the interval of more than 200 days, which showed a very low CR (9.0%) (P = 0.0241); regarding to ECC no significant statistical difference important were observed among females with BSC=3 submitted to FTAI when confronted to animals with higher BCS. In the case of Farm 3, located in Urama county in Carabobo State, 49 crossbred buffalo cows in the PPP, were subjected to FTAI obtaining a CR of 42.8%, whereas in Farm 4, located in Santa Ana county, Táchira state, 85 crossbred dairy cattle cows was used for FTAI, 40% CR obtained, and in Farm 5, located in Portuguesa state, where 23 crossbred beef cows of dual purpose in PPP subjected to FTAI, it was found 47.8% CR; finally in the Farm 6 located in Portuguesa State 20 crossbred beef heifers and 49 crossbred beef cow, were subjected to FTAI when was found a CR of 55 and 48.8%, respectively. Still in the Farm 1 were compared variables such as CR and number of births, when it was clear demonstrated that CR in pluriparous beef cows with more than four parturitions where quite higher when confronted with cows with 2-3 parturitions and primiparous (40.5 ≥ 4 births, 28.5% 2-3 births and 0% for primiparous), (P = 0.4130); when compared with CR and parturition interval and the use of FTAI protocol “Heat-pregna - E'' the CR is higher in cows between 60 and 200 days postpartum, than cows with the interval of more than 200 days, which showed a very low CR (9.0%) (P = 0.0241); regarding to ECC no significant statistical difference important were observed among females with BSC=3 submitted to FTAI when confronted to animals with higher BCS showing a very poor (P=0.1632). With reference to the degree of difficulty for AI, animals with 0 degree of difficulty for AI, presenting the highest conception rates compared to the animals of 1 degree (44.4 and 31.2%), respectively. The use of the protocol “Pregna Heat - E” for FTAI, can be recommended for both in cattle and buffaloes with satisfactory results, however the CR in the case of crossbred Bos taurus or crossed animals with more blood of this sub-species probably due the fact that are raised in hot and humid regions as in the case of Farm 1, it has been observed a decrease in CR, which can be attributed to environmental factors interfering negatively on this variable. Likewise it is important to note that female buffaloes must be synchronized at the favorable season, not in outbreeding season, since throughout this time there was a decrease in CR in buffaloes submitted to FTAI, 20.8 vs 34.6% and 42.8%, respectively. In the case of the use of synchronization protocols such as “Pregna Heat – E” for FTAI use in buffalo heifers in the present study showed to be inadequate, with zero of CR, probably due anatomical and physiological concerned to the reproductive tract (very small cervix), thus buffalo heifers should not be included in FTAI programs with conventional techniques. The protocol ''Pregna Heat - E” can be used as a viable tool for oestrus cycle synchronization and FTAI in both cattle and buffaloes, and in the present study with the bovine CR being higher than in buffaloes (40.1 vs 31, 9%) (Fisher = 0.9624, P = 0.0212, P <0.05). That being so the use of “Pregna Heat - E” protocol as was used in the present study needs to be further studied in buffalo to obtain higher conception rates.
