Objective: To investigate the relationship of seminal plasma biochemical indexes with routine semen parameters and that between seminal plasma biochemical indexes.
Methods: Using the automatic biochemical analyzer, we measured the contents of neutral α-glucosidase (NAG), fructose hexokinase (Fru) , citric acid (CA), acid phosphatase (ACP), (zinc) Zn, uric acid (UA), lactase dehydrogenase (LDH) and α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (α-HBDH) in the seminal plasma of 84 sperm donors in the Human Sperm Bank of Hebei Province. We analyzed the correlation between these indexes and that between routine semen parameters and these indexes.
Results: Sperm concentration and total sperm count were correlated positively with the contents of seminal plasma NAG, ACP, Zn, CA, LDH and α-HBDH (P<0.05) but negatively with Fru (P<0.05), the percentage of progressively motile sperm positively with seminal plasma Zn (P<0.05), and CA positively with NAG, Zn, LDH, α-HBDH and ACP (P<0.01) but negatively with Fru (P<0.01), NAG positively with Zn, LDH, α-HBDH and ACP (P<0.05) but Fru negatively with ACP (P<0.01), Zn positively with LDH, α-HBDH and ACP (P<0.01), and LDH positively with α-HBDH and ACP (P<0.01) but UA negatively with ACP (P<0.05).
Conclusions: Biochemical indexes in the seminal plasma of healthy men are not only closely related to each other, but also to some routine semen parameters.

Ram sperm are more vulnerable to freezing than those of most other farm animals. During sperm freezing, the cell membrane loses some of its cholesterol, which regulates signalling mechanisms and prevents premature capacitation. Resveratrol (RES) increases the fluidity of the cell membrane, which becomes peroxidized during freezing and reduces free radicals.

Investigating the correlation between micronucleus formation and male infertility has the potential to improve clinical diagnosis and deepen our understanding of pathological progression. Our study enrolled 2252 male patients whose semen was analyzed from March 2023 to July 2023. Their clinical data, including semen parameters and age, were also collected.

Phytochemicals have been effectively used to enhance the growth and productivity of farm animals, while the potential roles of essential oils and their nano-emulsions are limited. This plan was proposed to investigate the impacts of orally administered moringa oil (MO) or its nano-emulsion (NMO) on the growth, physiological response, blood health, semen attributes, and sperm antioxidant-related genes in rams. A total of 15 growing Rahmani rams were enrolled in this study and allotted into three groups.
