Measurement of free radicals and their effects on human spermatozoa

Thesis (MSCMedSc (Biomedical Sciences. Medical Physiology))--University of Stellenbosch, 2006. === In this study, we presented data on the role of free radicals in human spermatozoa, particularly in the context of centrifugation and the potential development of defective sperm function. In order to...

In this study, we presented data on the role of free radicals in human spermatozoa, particularly in the context of centrifugation and the potential development of defective sperm function. In order to achieve this, methods were developed to directly measure intracellular free radicals in human sperm and the effects of exogenously applied free radicals on sperm function were established. The role of brief and prolonged centrifugation and the associated generation of free radicals was also investigated. 2006-11-07T05:53:18Z 2010-06-01T08:59:31Z 2006-11-07T05:53:18Z 2010-06-01T08:59:31Z 2006-03 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/2833 University of Stellenbosch 781785 bytes 134586 bytes application/pdf application/pdf Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch
