| Abstract | ||
| This study was carried out to evaluate of glutathione (GSH) supplementation at levels of 0.0 (control), 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 mM to diluted semen stored for 0, 24, 48 and 72 h at 5°C, on antioxidant enzymes activity in seminal plasma, semen characteristics and fertility rate (FR) of cocks Inshas strain. Supplementing 0.6 mM GSH to the diluted cocks semen was significantly (P | ||
