Comparison of Seminal Plasma Total Antioxidant Capacity in Human Semen with Hyperviscosity and Non-Hyperviscosity
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Several factors have influence on sperm fertilization, between them semen hyperviscosity is one of the idiopathic factors involved in sperm viability and function deficiency. Probably, decrease in human seminal antioxidants is one of the negative effects of hyperviscosity o...

Probably, decrease in human seminal antioxidants is one of the negative effects of hyperviscosity on sperm function. The aim of this study was to compare the total antioxidant activity (TAC) in seminal plasma of infertile patients with hyperviscosity and non- hyperviscosity.METHODS: In this cross sectional study, 47 semen samples were provided from infertile patients with hyperviscosity (n=22) and without hyperviscosity (n=25) at Fatemeh Zahra Infertility and Health Reproductive Research Center.
