“…Reactive oxygen species production is related to sperm physiology due to its role in various sperm processes, including maturation, capacitation, hyperactivation, acrosome reaction and sperm–oocyte interaction (Agarwal et al., ; Du Plessis, Agarwal, Halabi, & Tvrda, ; Ghareeb & Sarhan, ; Kothari, Thompson, Agarwal, & du Plessis, ; Mayorga Torres, Camargo, Cadavid, Maya, & Walter, ).
