Abstract

The results of exposing the human sperm to an electrical field revealed that the percentage of sperm that lost their acrosome significantly increased with electrical pulse strength (p < 10−6), with 34.71 × 4.2, 47.16 ± 6.9, and 58.13 ± 5.7% of sperm undergoing the acrosome reaction when they were exposed to pulse strength of 750, 1000, and 1500 V/cm, respectively, in comparison with the control of 25.05 ± 5.6 %.
