A 1992 World Health Organization report described normal human semen as having a volume of 2 mL or greater, pH of 7.2 to 8.0, sperm concentration of 20×10 6 spermatozoa/mL or more, sperm count of 40×10 6 spermatozoa per ejaculate or more, and motility of 50% or more with forward progression (categories a and b) of 25% or more with rapid ...
Sperm quantity and quality are the main parameters in semen quality, which is a measure of the ability of semen to accomplish fertilization. Thus, in humans, it is a measure of fertility in a man . The genetic quality of sperm, as well as its volume and motility, all typically decrease with age . [ 17 ]

The protein encoded by this gene is the predominant protein in semen. The encoded secreted protein is ...
However, you can have normal sexual function yet have only small traces of sperm in your semen. A man who has had a vasectomy , for example, has a zero sperm count despite completely normal sexual ...
The protein FMRP binds to meiotic chromosomes and regulates the dynamics of the DDR machinery during spermatogenesis. [13] FMRP appears to be necessary for the repair of DNA damage . During spermatocytogenesis, meiosis employs special DNA repair processes that remove DNA damages and help maintain the integrity of the genome that is passed on to ...
The human Y chromosome showing the SRY gene which codes for a protein regulating sexual differentiation. Sexual differentiation in humans is the process of development of sex differences in humans. It is defined as the development of phenotypic structures consequent to the action of hormones produced following gonadal determination. [1]
Nuclear autoantigenic sperm protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NASP gene. [5] [6] Multiple isoforms are encoded by transcript variants of this gene.
A spermatozoon (/ s p ər ˌ m æ t ə ˈ z oʊ. ən, ˌ s p ɜːr m ə t ə-/; [1] also spelled spermatozoön; pl.: spermatozoa; from Ancient Greek σπέρμα (spérma) 'seed' and ζῷον (zôion) 'animal') is a motile sperm cell produced by male animals relying on internal fertilization.
