| description | Sperm DNA damage can be defined as any chemical change in the normal structure of the DNA. Among these changes, sperm DNA fragmentation (sDF) is one of the most common disturbances affecting the genetic material in the form of single or double strand breaks. sDF may be triggered by different processes, including the defective packaging of the DNA during spermatogenesis, and processes of cell death and oxidative stress which may be associated with several pathological and environmental conditions. | ||

Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Spermatozoa.abnormal chromatin | ||
| property | NFr = Number Fraction | ||
| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||
| system | Semen = Seminal fluid | ||
| scale | Qn = Quantitative: The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256 | ||
