Effect of Electromagnetic Radiation on Acrosome Reaction of Human Spermatozoa

Brinda Poojary, Varsha Andhare

Abstract :

  Several studies have shown electromagnetic radiations to affect the semen quality of humans which may translate to affecting the fertilization potential of human spermatozoa. The present study was aimed to observe the effect of smart phone radiations on sperm function. 30 semen samples from normozoospermic men were collected and processed. Each harvested sample was divided into two aliquots, one control and one test. The test samples were subjected to radiations for an hour and then tested for acrosome reaction. The test samples showed less number of sperms with proteolytic reaction of the acrosome as opposed to control samples. The results were significant at P = 0.05 level of significance.
