Effects of sub-dermal administration of Ag-NP on protein concentrations in testes and epididymis experimental rats.

Proteins	Epididymis (g/dL)		Testes (g/dL)
	7 Days	28 Days	7 Days	28 Days
Control	1.41 ± 0.32 c	1.07 ± 0.36 c	1.52 ± 0.04 a	1.26 ± 0.01 a
10 mg/kg bw	0.89 ± 0.03 b	0.93 ± 0.39 b	1.02 ± 0.02 a	1.20 ± 0.02 a
50 mg/kg bw	0.21 ± 0.03 a	0.27 ± 0.0 a	1.08 ± 0.02 a	1.23 ± 0.05 a

Data expressed as mean ± standard deviation of triplicate determination. Data followed by different superscript alphabet along the same column are significantly different (p < 0.05). The high significant levels of the parameters were in the order of a < b < c. Data with superscript alphabet “a” are significantly lower than data with superscript alphabet “b” while data with superscript “b” are lower than data with superscript alphabet “c” at p < 0.05.
