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...
