Effect of amino acids and dipeptides on the acrosome reaction and accumulation of ammonia in porcine spermatozoa

Aim The present study was designed to investigate the effect of amino acids and their dipeptides in the medium related to the urea cycle on the motility, viability, acrosome reaction (AR) and accumulation of ammonia in the medium over different incubation periods in porcine spermatozoa and to assess the utilization of glucose.
