Recent findings illustrate the constructive roles that oxygen radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) play in a number of important steps during mammals gametogenesis and the essential endocrine support they receive for successful propagation of species. The present paper presents our contribution on fish antioxidative defence evaluation during reproductive processes. Plasma and testis activity of vitamin E were analysed, by HPLC, in adult male sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax, through the reproductive cycle.

Abstract
Recent findings illustrate the constructive roles that oxygen radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) play in a number of important steps during mammals gametogenesis and the essential endocrine support they receive for successful propagation of species. The present paper presents our contribution on fish antioxidative defence evaluation during reproductive processes. Plasma and testis activity of vitamin E were analysed, by HPLC, in adult male sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax, through the reproductive cycle. Their concentrations displayed a pattern in agreement with that of plasma androgen levels, with an increase during the gonadal recrudescence.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
