Abstract
Spermatozoa of Leuciscus cephalus have the enzymatic outfit for glycolysis but lack lipase, phospholipase and glucosidase activities. Therefore, they are not able to utilize lipids and polysaccharides as energy resources. During motility they use monosaccharides as energy reservoirs: the intracellular glucose, galactose and fructose levels decrease significantly while lactate levels increase.Entities:
