Postoperative plasma samples were collected between 6 and 8 weeks after surgery. Blood was collected into Vacutainer CPT tubes (Becton Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ) containing sodium citrate anticoagulant and centrifuged at room temperature for 20 minutes at 1,500g.

explore the possible presence of varicocele. Semen samples were obtained from both fertile and infertile men. Weight, height and waist circumference of all participants were measured. The body mass index (BMI) was calculated as weight ⁄height2 (kg/ m2) and subjects were classified into: normal weight (BMI 18–25 kg/ m2), overweight (BMI > 25–30 kg/ m2) or obese (BMI > 30 kg/ m2). Waist circumference was measured at the mid-point between the lower borders of the rib cage and the iliac crest. Semen

ABSTRACT Due to the potential harmful effects of the glacial acetic acid, a commonly used diluting fluid for manual WBC count, the researchers proposed to use commercially-prepared ascorbic acid to lyse the red blood cells while maintaining the morphology of the white blood cells. This study aimed to compare the capability of commercially-prepared ascorbic acid as a lysing agent in a diluting fluid to glacial acetic acid. Specifically, this study aimed to compare their capabilities in lysing red
