Influence of ejaculatory abstinence on seminal total antioxidant capacity and sperm membrane lipid peroxidation Paul B. Marshburn, M.D., Allie Giddings, M.D., Stephanie Causby, M.S., Michelle L.

Figure 1 Comparison of the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in seminal fluid after 1 day (EA1) vs. 4 days (EA4) of ejaculatory abstinence. The counted photons per minute measures the total antioxidant capacity [TAC]; (see Materials and Methods). TAC determinations were compared within a given male subject by a two-tailed t test, with a man serving as his own control from EA1 to EA4. ∗P<.02.

Figure 2 Comparison of the sperm membrane lipid peroxidation (LPO) after 1 day (EA1) vs. 4 days (EA4) of ejaculatory abstinence. The level of malondialdehyde (nM/h) measures the degree of sperm membrane lipid peroxidation (see Materials and Methods). LPO determinations were compared within a given male subject by a two-tailed t test, with a man serving as his own control from EA1 to EA4. P=.98.
