As known for different metabolic functions, α-lipoic acid (ALA) has been tested for spermatozoa preservation of animals as well as of human, but not for fish spermatozoa. The present study determined the effects of ALA on short and long-term (cryopreservation) preservation of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) spermatozoa, for the first time. For that, spermatozoa were diluted in extenders containing 0 (control), 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, and 10 mM of ALA concentrations in both short-term preservation and cryopreservation. Spermatozoa motility parameters by computer-assisted semen analysis, viability, lipid peroxidation and catalase activity in spermatozoa were conducted in both 2nd and 120th hours of short-term storage and post-thaw samples. Higher percentages of total spermatozoa motility (80 ± 3) and viability (87 ± 3) were observed in 0.5 mM ALA group after 120 h of incubation. In post-thaw samples, higher percentages of these parameters were in 1 mM ALA group (74 ± 3 and 83 ± 2, respectively). Moreover, the results have shown that the addition of ALA until concentrations of 2 mM improved especially spermatozoa curvilinear velocity, maintained viability, and suppressed excessive lipid peroxidation during the preservations. In conclusion, the additions of 0.5 mM ALA for short-term preservation and 1 mM ALA for cryopreservation were the optimal concentrations, and shown the protective effects on common carp spermatozoa, when considering all measured parameters together.
