Origin of reactive oxygen species in human semen: spermatozoa or leucocytes?

1 Mar 1992

Abstract excerpt

Summary. Peroxidative damage induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been proposed as one of the major causes of defective sperm function. In previous studies of the production of ROS in semen, the contribution of contaminating leucocytes was not assessed. We determined the levels of ROS in 60 semen samples from men attending our infertility clinic and demonstrated by performing extraction experiments with...
