Abstrakt: The aim was to evaluate the effect of a post-thaw dilution of Rhamdia quelen sperm in 1.1% NaCl (325 mOsm kg -1 ; pH 7.6; 24 °C) solution on the quality and reproductive capacity. Sperm from eight males were cryopreservation in nitrogen vapor at - 170 °C for 18 h in 0.25 mL straws in a freezing medium containing 5% fructose, 5% Powdered milk, and 10% methanol. The samples were thawed and post-thaw diluted (1:20) in NaCl solution or not (control). The higher spermatozoa velocities were observed in the post-thaw diluted samples (curvilinear (VCL) - 69 ± 11 µm s -1 ; average path (VAP) - 45 ± 8 µm s -1 ; straight-line (VSL) - 43 ± 8 µm s -1 ) compared to the control (VCL - 47 ± 10 µm s -1 ; VAP - 31 ± 6 µm s -1 ; VSL - 30 ± 6 µm s -1 ). Greater straightness (STR), progression (PROG), and beat cross frequency (BCF) were observed in the post-thaw diluted samples (STR - 96 ± 7%; PROG - 666 ± 128 µm; BCF - 42 ± 2 Hz) than in control (STR - 95 ± 5%; PROG - 463 ± 92 µm; BCF - 40 ± 2 Hz). The strongly curled tail was the only morphology change that differ between the post-thaw diluted (5 ± 2%) and control (2 ± 1%). Membrane integrity, mitochondrial activity, and normal larvae rate were not different between treatments. Fertilization and hatching were higher in the post-thaw diluted sperm (93 ± 3%; 82 ± 9%) when compared to control samples (65 ± 13%; 55 ± 17%). Were used oocytes from one female, limiting these results. The post-thaw dilution improved the sperm kinetics and reproductive parameters. Thus, this methodology can be included in the sperm cryopreservation protocol for R. quelen.
