Human seminal biochemistry: fructose, ascorbic acid, citric acid, acid phosphatase and their relationship with sperm count. 1981

E Videla, and A M Blanco, and M E Galli, and E Fernández-Collazo

Seminal concentration of fructose, ascorbic acid, citric acid and acid phosphatase were measured in azoospermic, oligozoospermic and control males. No significant differences were found among the groups evaluated. The data obtained in the present study suggest that in the absence of infection and androgen deficiency, the failure of the germinal line of the testis is not correlated with alterations of the adnexal glands.

D001205 Ascorbic Acid A six carbon compound related to glucose. It is found naturally in citrus fruits and many vegetables. Ascorbic acid is an essential nutrient in human diets, and necessary to maintain connective tissue and bone. Its biologically active form, vitamin C, functions as a reducing agent and coenzyme in several metabolic pathways. Vitamin C is considered an antioxidant.
