Abstract

The check of a hypothesis about possible participation oxidative stress to infringement of fertility is spent at a poisoning polychlorbefeniles. Increased ability to generation of reactive oxygen species by morphologically defective spermatozoa has been revealed. There is a decrease of total antioxidizing activity of testis. Is shown antioxidant activity bioflavonoids of propolis.
