Lipid peroxidation in buffalo (Bubalus bubalis L.) spermatozoa: effect of added vitamin C and glucose.
Addition of 2.5 mM vitamin C or 40 mM of glucose to washed buffalo spermatozoan suspensions in Ca2(+)-free Kreb's Ringer Hanseliet saline buffer (pH 7.0) resulted in significant lower malonaldehyde concentration and higher spermatozoan motility and liver spermatozoa compared to control levels after 45 min of aerobic incubation at 37 degrees C or pre-incubation levels.
