Validation of sORP, a Measure of Oxidative Stress, in Australian Population
Background: Excessive reactive oxygen species are normally eliminated by seminal plasma free radical antioxidant scavengers and enzymes. Assessing the oxidation reduction potential of seminal fluid (mV/million sperm/mL) enables the detection of an ...

Sperm design and sperm function [PDF]
Spermatozoa vary enormously in their form and dimensions, both between and within species, yet how this variation translates into fertilizing efficiency is not known. Sperm swimming velocity is a key determinant of male fertilization success, but previous efforts to identity which sperm phenotypic traits are associated with swimming ...

Sperm Cholesterol Content Modifies Sperm Function and TRPV1-Mediated Sperm Migration [PDF]
Transient receptor potential channels-vanilloid receptor 1 (TRPV1) regulates thermotaxis in sperm-oriented motility. We investigated the role of membrane cholesterol (Chol) on TRPV1-mediated human sperm migration. Semen samples were obtained from five normozoospemic healthy volunteers.
