| Analysis | Control | R‐0.4 | R‐0.6 | R‐0.8 | R‐1 | CGA‐50 | CGA‐100 | CGA‐150 | CGA‐200 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total motility (%) | 54.03 ± 1.54fg | 61.05 ± 1.20cd | 65.18 ± 1.36ab | 57.32 ± 1.42ef | 59.03 ± 1.19de | 61.49 ± 1.73cd | 64.59 ± 1.51bc | 68.24 ± 1.14a | 53.72 ± 1.30g |
| Progressive motility (%) | 22.19 ± 1.40f | 30.82 ± 1.89cd | 34.03 ± 1.65ab | 25.92 ± 1.15ef | 27.45 ± 1.37de | 30.35 ± 1.63cd | 33.54 ± 1.90bc | 37.89 ± 1.78a | 23.45 ± 1.20f |
Note: Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. R‐0.4: Tris‐based extender + rutin (0.4 mM); R‐0.6: Tris‐based extender + rutin (0.6 mM); R‐0.8: Tris‐based extender + rutin (0.8 mM); R‐1: Tris‐based extender + rutin (1 mM); CGA‐50: Tris‐based extender + chlorogenic acid (50 µM); CGA‐100: Tris‐based extender + chlorogenic acid (100 µM); CGA‐150: Tris‐based extender + chlorogenic acid (150 µM); CGA‐200: Tris‐based extender + chlorogenic acid (200 µM). Different superscripts within the same row demonstrate significant differences (p ≤ 0.05).
