Tehnološki aspekti industrijske proizvodnje dječje hrane na bazi mlijeka
Idealna hrana za dojenčad - ženino mlijeko, nije uvijek praktički na raspolaganju ili ga nema u dovoljnoj količini. Kao najbolja i jedina zamjena tome mlijeku, odnosno kao sirovina za preradu u dojenačku i dječju hranu, služi kravlje mlijeko
Cryopreservation of the Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) spermatozoa
Abstract
The effects of cryoprotectants, cooling rate and freezing on the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis sperm were evaluated. At the end of each step of the experimental protocol, motility and fertilization ability of sperm were analyzed, compared to fresh semen. Five cryoprotectants were tested in their toxicity level: dimethylsulfoxide, ethylene glycol, 1-2 propylene glycol at 5%, 7%, 10%, 15% and 20% concentration; glycerol and methanol at concentration of 5%, 7% and 10%. The incubation times were 10, 20 and 30 min at 20 ± 1 _C. Only dimethylsulfoxide, ethylene glycol and 1-2 propylene glycol at 5%, 7% and 10% were chosen for the following pre-freezing step. Five adaptation/chilling rates were analyzed: 10 min at 20 ± 1, _2, _1, _0.5 and _0.25 _C/min and the last one was used for testing the best freezing Thawing results showed that M. galloprovincialis sperm are very sensitive to rapid pre-freezing and freezing protocols and only a slow procedure assured good motility and fertilization percentage
