11. Antimicrobial activity of human seminal plasma and seminal plasma proteins
Sammanfattning : Seminal plasma is semen without the spermatozoa. Human seminal plasma is a complex mixture of secretions from the sex accessory glands, mainly the seminal vesicles and the prostate. Seminal plasma has high protein content and it also contains ions, sugars and low molecular weight components. LÄS MER
12. Aspects of the regulation of human sperm motility
Sammanfattning : In this thesis I address some of the possible causes for oligozoospermia and low sperm motility, two factors that, singly or in combination, are often seen in cases of male subfertility. In the first study we evaluated the effect on human spermatozoa of the toxicity of compounds present in diesel exhaust. LÄS MER
13. Reproductive biotechnologies in Swedish male alpacas
Sammanfattning : Alpacas have become more popular during the last decades. The herds have been built up by importing live animals since reproductive biotechnologies, for example artificial insemination and semen preservation, are not well-developed in this species. LÄS MER
14. Epididymal and accessory sex gland function and semen quality
Sammanfattning : Infertility, defined as the inability to conceive after one year of unprotected regular intercourse, affects up to 15% of all couples of reproductive age. The infertility can originate from female, male or both partners. In up to 50% of the affected couples, a male factor is the cause of infertility. LÄS MER
15. On osmolality and sperm function during processing for assisted reproduction
Sammanfattning : Deep basic knowledge about sperm physiology is relevant and important to optimize the outcome of procedures used during Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) to select spermatozoa for fertilization. More specifically, this study examined osmolality changes and consequences for sperm motility and sperm selection in the laboratory. LÄS MER
