Background Sperm DNA integrity is crucial for normal fertilization, implantation, and embryo
development. Several assays are available to assess sperm DNA fragmentation but are …

BACKGROUND: The extent of sperm DNA fragmentation, which can be measured by the
TUNEL assay, is one of the determinants of male fertility. However, the clinical application of …

Several techniques have been developed to measure the amount of sperm DNA damage in
an effort to identify more objective parameters for evaluation of infertile men. The integrity of …

Purpose The sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) was quantitatively measured and its
relationship with age, semen quality, and infertility conditions was investigated. Methods …

BACKGROUND: One major limitation in the use of sperm DNA fragmentation as measured
by the TdT (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase)-mediated dUTP nick-end labelling …

Over the past 25 years, various methods have been developed to measure sperm DNA
strand breaks in situ. Currently, there are four major tests of sperm DNA fragmentation …

Objective The usual seminal profile has been customarily used for diagnosing male infertility
based on an examination of semen samples. However, sperm DNA fragmentation has also …

Background and Objectives: Sperm DNA fragmentation refers to any break in one or both of
the strands of DNA in the head of a sperm. The most widely used methodologies for …

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection is a popular form of in vitro fertilization, where single sperm
