Table 1. Kinetic parameters that charactrerized linear, transitional and hyperactivated sperm movement.
Kinetic parameters | Linear | Transitional | Hyperactivated |
---|---|---|---|
VCL | 27.82±1.05a | 34.20±0.89b | 40.32±1.06c |
VSL | 25.56±1.07a | 24.21±0.75a | 10.23±1.46b |
LIN | 0.92±0.01a | 0.71±0.02b | 0.49±0.04c |
Abbreviations: LIN, linearity; VCL, curvilinear velocity; VSL, linear velocity.
Data are expressed as the mean±s.e. of 100 spermatozoa. Different superscript letters indicate significant differences compared with other sperm movements (P<0.05).
