In: Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal 2003.v.49(99)Summary: A study was conducted to determine the level of some antioxidant activities in seminal plasma (SP) and their relation to ram breed. A total of 15 mature intact rams (9 Awassi and 6 Charollais) were involved in the study. Semen samples were collected (twice a week for one month during the transitional period to the breeding season) from each ram by means of an electro-ejaculator. There were significant effect of ram breed on total antioxidant status (TAS) (P < 0.05), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity (P < 0.01) in SP and plasma testosterone (T) level (P < 0.01). There was no significant effect of breed on superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity.
