Article Synopsis
- Pesticide exposure, specifically from Chlorpyriphos, causes significant reproductive issues in male rats by damaging their sex organs and reducing hormone levels, sperm quality, and testicular glycogen.
- The study examined the effect of flavonoids (diosmin and hesperidin) on recovering reproductive functions in male Wistar rats after they were exposed to Chlorpyriphos for 60 days.
- Results showed that the rats treated with flavonoids had notably better levels of reproductive hormones, improved sperm parameters, and higher testicular glycogen compared to those treated only with Chlorpyriphos, indicating the potential protective effects of these antioxidant compounds against pesticide toxicity.
Background And Aim: Heat stress is a major challenge for animals, impairing their welfare and performance. This study aimed to determine the effect of heat stress on the vital and hematobiochemical parameters of healthy dogs.
Materials And Methods: The experimental subjects comprised 10 dogs, encompassing seven males and three non-pregnant females between 2 and 3 years of age.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of vitamin C on chronic carbamazepine-induced reproductive toxicity in male Wistar rats. Four groups of 10 rats were respectively exposed to distilled water (2 ml/kg), vitamin C (100 mg/kg), carbamazepine (20 mg/kg) and vitamin C followed by CBZ, after 30 min..

Background Numerous uses of Waltheria indica plant such as antitrypanosomal, antibacterial and antimalarial effects have been reported. It has however been reported that most plants with antibacterial and antiprotozoal effects have adverse effect on male reproduction. Hence, we evaluated the effect of Waltheria indica root on male reproductive parameters.
