Tribulus terrestris ekstraktının ilavesiyle gökkuşağı alabalığının (Oncorhynchus mykiss) sperm motilitesinin arttırılması

Tribulus terrestris (TT), Zygophyllaceae familyasına ait geleneksel bir bitkidir ve dünyada yaygın olarak dağılım gösterir. TT, testosteron, testosteron pekürsörü ve luteinize edici hormon seviyelerini yükseltme potansiyeline sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, Tribulus terrestris ilavesinin gökkuşağı alabalığının (Oncorhynchus mykiss) sperm motilitesi üzerindeki etkisini değerlendirmek için ilk kez denemeler yapılmıştır. Denemede farklı konsantrasyonlarda [0 µg L-1 (Kontrol), 200 µg L-1, 400 µg L-1, 600 µg L-1, 800 µg L-1 ve 1000 µg L-1] T. terrestris ekstraktı kullanılmıştır. Sperm motilite özellikleri ve süresi belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca T. terrestris ekstraktının protodioscin içeriği değerlendirilmiştir. Bu çalışma, T. terrestris varlığının sperm motilitesinde artışa neden olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. 400 µg L-1'de süre (49,00±3,61 s) ve motilite oranındaki (%91,67±2,89) artışlar istatistiksel olarak anlamlıydı (p

Enhancing motility of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) sperm by Tribulus terrestris extract supplementation

Tribulus terrestris (TT) is a famous traditional plant of family Zygophyllaceae and widely distributes around the world. TT has potential to elevate the testosterone, testosterone precursor and luteinizing hormone levels. In this study, trials were conducted to assessment the impact of Tribulus terrestris addition on sperm motility of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) for the first time. In the trial, we used to different concentrations [0 µg L-1 (Control), 200 µg L-1, 400 µg L-1, 600 µg L-1, 800 µg L-1 and 1000 µg L-1] of T. terrestris extract. Sperm motility characteristics and longevity were determined. In addition, protodioscin content of T. terrestris extract was assessed. The present study revealed that the presence of T. terrestris caused to increase in sperm motility. The increases in duration (49.00±3.61 s) and motility rate (91.67±2.89%) at 400 µg L-1 were statistically significant (p
