Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The present study is expected to help us in optimizing cryopreservation protocol where we can maintain the DNA integrity of the reproductive cells after the freeze-thaw process which is considered to be very critical component of the gametes.Timepoint: Three years—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The results of the study will be beneficial to understand the impact of zinc oxide on sperm cryopreservation.Timepoint: One week—
