Abstract:
OBJECTIVESTo assess the effect of freezing on the sperm DNA.
METHODSTo assess the sperm DNA preserved at -80 degrees C by using the single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE).
RESULTSThere was no statistical difference on the time factor by analysis of variance (ANOVA).
CONCLUSIONSIntegrity of sperm DNA could not be devastated in frozen states.
