  1. Sperm motility and motion kinematics are presented as mean ± SEM, n =3, *P <0.05. MOT = motility (%); HYP = hyperactivated sperm (%); VCL = curvilinear velocity (μm/s); VSL = straight-line velocity (μm/s); VAP = average path velocity (μm/s); ALH = mean amplitude of head lateral displacement (μm).
