Calibration of redox potential in sperm wash media and evaluation of oxidation–reduction potential values in various assisted reproductive technology culture media using MiOXSYS system
(Wiley, 2018)Oxidation–reduction potential describes the balance between the oxidants and antioxidants in fluids including semen. Various artificial culture media are used in andrology and IVF laboratories for sperm preparation and to ... -
Determination of seminal oxidation–reduction potential (ORP) as an easy and cost-effective clinical marker of male infertility
(Wiley, 2017)Oxidative stress (OS) is an important contributing factor to male infertility. While previous methods to measure seminal OS are time-consuming and limited to the use of freshly produced semen, oxidation reduction potential ... -
Evaluation of seminal oxidation–reduction potential in male infertility
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2021)The role of oxidative stress in male infertility has been broadly recognised, and the search for a new marker to determine the redox environment in semen has gained considerable interest. Oxidation–reduction potential (ORP) ... -
High levels of oxidation–reduction potential in frozen-thawed human semen are significantly correlated with poor post-thaw sperm quality
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)This study examined the relationship between oxidation–reduction potential (ORP) in frozen-thawed semen and the post-thaw sperm parameters. Levels of ORP were measured in 25 samples from men presenting for routine infertility ... -
Human sperm handling in intracytoplasmic sperm injection processes: In vitro studies on mouse oocyte activation, embryo development competence and sperm oxidation–reduction potential
(Wiley, 2018)Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and hyaluronic acid (HA) are routinely used in handling spermatozoa for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). As there are still concerns about possible adverse effects on the embryo, this ... -
Seminal oxidation–reduction potential levels are not influenced by the presence of leucocytospermia
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)Oxidative stress (OS) is characterised by an excessive amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which negatively affect sperm functions. In this study, the influence of leucocytes on seminal oxidation–reduction potential ... -
An update on the techniques used to measure oxidative stress in seminal plasma
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2021)Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced in significant amounts by spermatozoa and leucocytes. They are necessary to carry out various physiological functions such as sperm capacitation, hyperactivation, acrosome reaction, ...
