Summary

The aim of the study is to investigate the role of oxidative stress in female infertility and the relationship between the stress as it is illustrated by questionnaires, serum markers, follicular fluid markers, and ovarian response in assisted reproduction.

Conditions

  • IVF
  • Pregnancy
  • Oxidative Stress
  • Fertility Disorders

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Measurement of oxidative stress levels (Malondialdehide, glutathione disulphate, total antioxidant capacity, superoxide dismutase and carbonylated proteins )

Follicular fluid and serum were obtained within 1 hour of oocyte recovery. Considerable care was taken to pool follicular fluid uncontaminated with blood. The samples were processed by centrifuge and 1-mL aliquots stored ar -80ºC until assay. Malondialdehide, glutathione disulphate, total antioxidant capacity, superoxide dismutase and carbonylated proteins were measured from follicular fluid and plasma according to manufacturer's protocol. This assay has been described as highly sensitive. Data were expressed as millimoles per liter from the reference curve.
