semen hyperviscosity (shv) is one of the factors involved in deficiency in sperm function. this research aimed to evaluate seminal plasma total antioxidant capacity (tac) and malondialdehyde (mda) levels in infertile patients with hyperviscous and non-hyperviscous semen samples to understand whether hyperviscous semen is associated with oxidative damage in infertile subjects. in this cross sect...

the aim of this study was to investigate the comparison between some seminal plasma parameters and age of the bull. concentrations of various biochemical parameters like fructose, glucose, total proteins, albumin and inorganic ions including na, k and cl ions of seminal plasma of breeding sahiwal bulls of different ageswere assessed. methods: 40sahiwal bullsdivided into 4 age groups.semen (2ml ...

In this work, applicability of Particle in Cell-Monte Carlo Collisions (PIC-MCC) simulation method for better understanding of the plasma physical mechanisms and real important aspects of a plasma column driven by surface wave plasma discharges that is used in plasma antennas is examined. Via the implementation of geometry and physical parameters of the plasma column to an Object Oriented PIC-M...

background: the trace element copper has been identified as a highly toxic element for sperm. it is known to affect sperm motility in humans and experimental implantation of copper in the epididymis vas deferens and scrotum of mammals has been demonstrated to affect fertility detrimentally. objective: sperm concentration motility vitality and morphology are parameters used to evaluate potential...

In this paper, plasma main characteristics such as electron mean temperature, electron number density, and oscillation frequency have been measured experimentally using the double Langmuir probe diagnostic system. In our experiment, the plasma was generated by applying the low pressure dc glow discharge in several common gases. The experimental results indicated the highest plasma density and o...

Using the Langmuir probe method, the reactive plasma parameters were studied in different ratios of oxygen and nitrogen concentrations in a DC cylindrical discharge device.The plasma parameters such as plasma potential, electron density and electron temperature wereextracted from the current-voltage characteristic’s curve of Langmuir probe to find the optimum conditions for deposit the oxy...
