Journal ArticleDOI
Cadmium concentrations in blood and seminal plasma: correlations with sperm number and motility in three male populations (infertility patients, artificial insemination donors, and unselected volunteers).
Susan Benoff,Susan Benoff,Susan Benoff,Russ Hauser,Joel L. Marmar,Ian R. Hurley,Barbara Napolitano,Grace M. Centola +7 more
TL;DR: Human and rat study results are consistent with the hypothesis that environmental cadmium exposures may contribute significantly to reduced human male sperm concentration and sperm motility and validate the human findings in an animal model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cryopreservation of human semen. Comparison of cryopreservatives, sources of variability, and prediction of post-thaw survival.
TL;DR: Sperm frozen in Human Sperm Preservation Medium had a significantly better recovery of all semen parameters (motility, velocity, and recovery) than either TEST-Yolk or glycerol alone and there was a relationship between motiles count after dilution with cryopreservative and post-thaw motile count.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal variations and age-related changes in human sperm count, motility, motion parameters, morphology, and white blood cell concentration
Grace M. Centola,Shirley Eberly +1 more
TL;DR: Age-adjusted analyses of seasonal variations in andrology patient semen parameters showed significant seasonal variation in the percentage rapid motile sperm and straightline velocity, as well as the percent tail defects, percent immature sperm, and the percent tapered sperm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased seminal plasma lead levels adversely affect the fertility potential of sperm in IVF
Susan Benoff,Grace M. Centola,Colleen Millan,Barbara Napolitano,Joel L. Marmar,Ian R. Hurley +5 more
TL;DR: Lead levels were negatively correlated to two of the three sperm function biomarkers and positively correlated with the spontaneous acrosome reaction, which may contribute to the production of unexplained male infertility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of sperm separation methods: effect on recovery, motility, motion parameters, and hyperactivation.
TL;DR: PureSperm appears to be as effective as Percoll (Enhance) for the recovery of good, progressively motile sperm for use in IUI or other assisted reproductive techniques.
