Sperm were exposed to concentrations of BPA for 30 min, and analyzed for motility, fertilizing ability, percent live sperm and Δψm. Results revealed that BPA significantly decreased motility, fertilizing ability, % live sperm count and sperm Δψm at concentration of 0.74 mM BPA. ...
The results of the present study indicated that fertility, cloacal gland area, sperm concentration and serum testosterone were reduced significantly (p < 0.05) on day14 in the norfloxacin treated birds. ...
