Effects of Cosmos caudatus on sperm quality of mice, Mus musculus

This study was designed to analyse the effects of Cosmos caudatus on sperm quality of mice, Mus musculus. The daily intake of Cosmos caudatus was evaluated in determining its effects on male fertility. Four different concentrations of the crude ethanolic extracts which were 50 mg/kg, 125 mg/kg, 50...
