Protective Effects of α-tocopherol on the Activity and Antioxidant Profile of Bovine Spermatozoa Subjected to Ferrous Ascorbate-Induced Oxidative Stress

Protective Effects of α-tocopherol on the Activity and Antioxidant Profile of Bovine Spermatozoa Subjected to Ferrous Ascorbate-Induced Oxidative Stress

As spermatozoa are highly vulnerable to oxidative stress development, in vitro antioxidants offer an additional line of defense to the male reproductive system against oxidative insults. α‑tocopherol (α-TOC) is the most abundant form of vitamin E identified in the seminal plasma and spermatozoa memb...
