| dc.description.abstract | The role of oxidative stress in male infertility has been broadly recognised, and the search for a new marker to determine the redox environment in semen has gained considerable interest. Oxidation–reduction potential (ORP) or redox potential, is a measure of the electron transfer from antioxidants to oxidants and provides information on the redox balance. In this review, the benefits of ORP as a new oxidative stress marker, the protocol for its evaluation and the importance of its measurement in the context of male infertility are discussed. In association with the standard semen analysis, seminal ORP has been analysed to evaluate semen quality and male fertility status. However, further studies are required to establish its use in assisted reproductive techniques (ART) practice. | en_US |
