High seminal oxidation reduction potential in cryopreserved semen from infertile men is a marker of poor post-thaw sperm quality
OBJECTIVE Cryopreservation causes deleterious effects on human spermatozoa due to freezing and thawing, leading to decreased cryosurvival rates (CSR). The objectives of this study were to assess levels of oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) in cryopreserved semen of infertile men, and to determine their relationship to post-thaw sperm parameters. DESIGN A prospective cohort study. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 28 semen ... Read more
