From: REAC technology as optimizer of stallion spermatozoa liquid storage
Effect of REAC treatment on SOD (panel a) and MDA (panel b) intracellular concentrations of stallion spermatozoa during 72 h. of storage at 4 °C. For each parameter, the mean ± S.E values determined at the different time points are shown. A total of 16 ejaculates collected from eight stallions of different breeds (1: Thoroughbred; 2, 3, 4, 6: Arabian; 5, 7, 8: Warmblood) were used. Asterisks indicate statistical differences between REAC treated and untreated controls (General Linear Model): * p > 0.05; ** p < 0.001. Different letters indicate a statistical difference among values recorded at different time points within the same experimental group (General Linear Model): p > 0.01. Upper case letters: REAC group; lower case letters: control group
