Abstract: Irradiation results in a depression of the sperm count. The risk of damage to genes and chromosomal of spermatozoa exists and increases with increasing dose, potentially causing sterility or developments defects in children. Reputed to be a powerful natural antioxidant that may cause inhibition of radical processes, the protection of the macromolec... Show More
